Why Mayor Pete Booticall is bad for gays

Mayor Pete might be the most palatable gay man in America. That's precisely the problem.

He's better than Trump and Pence. End thread.

Good lord OP. Eat shit.

I’m afraid I could catch AIDS from him or he will teach my kids how to butt fuck.

It's a shame he doesn't behave more like Richard Simmons. But what are ya gonna do? He is what he is.

Fuck off, OP. Blocked.

That site is homophobic. They photoshopped animated cum onto his forehead and tie.

by Anonymousreply 9April 23, 2019 12:52 AM

author of OP's link is NUTS and rakes Pete for being too ordinary, trying to fit the straight told yet when interviewed Jacob Bacharach has THIS top say about himself:

" BACHARACH: My relationship with my family is very close and incredibly boring. I like to write stories about titanic weirdos, but I, myself, am a very dull person leading a fairly ordinary life, working a day job as an administrator and getting along quite well with my mom and dad, so it’s not particularly autobiographical."

WTF?

Good Lord, the idiots who have to ANNOUNCE that they've blocked someone because their delicate ears can't handle a differing opinion. (R8). The author of the article is an idiot in my opinion but I thank OP for calling it to our attention. There really are gay men that think like him. Incredible.

There's already a thread on this.

[quote]We are almost precisely the same age, 37. We occupy the same broad economic position, that 10 percent of the population who sit just below the fabulously rich.

The author says he’s almost fabulously rich.

What were you expecting? RuPaul?

by Anonymousreply 15April 23, 2019 1:03 AM

The person who wrote this is probably one of those "queer" activists who were complaining that gay marriage is not important since marriage is a "conservative" institution. Fuck them--shove them into a psych ward where they belong.

by Anonymousreply 16April 23, 2019 1:13 AM

Didn't read article or open the link.

But is it basically saying that he's not enough of a stereotype?

R17 in a nutshell.. and hid behind his "stragihtdom" to accomplish his successes...............….

by Anonymousreply 18April 23, 2019 1:19 AM

And you know that if he was a muscle mary with nudes online, and a lisp he'd be slaughtered for that too.

by Anonymousreply 19April 23, 2019 1:22 AM

Why can’t he be more like gay rights leader Perez Hilton?

by Anonymousreply 20April 23, 2019 1:23 AM

R4 don't compare him to your stereotype please

by Anonymousreply 21April 23, 2019 1:23 AM

The people who write these kind of articles are really tiresome. He accomplished more than most politicians ever do. He has a track record of success--in the rust belt. Who cares about if he's "straight acting" or not? This poor, pathetic writer probably just needs to get laid.

Mayor Pete has my vote. And my donation. He has s very intelligent brain, unlike the current squatter in the White House.

Sizemeat verficatia? Or none, a bump like a Ken doll.

R18 he did not. He was always gay. Never bearded with a woman. You don't know how he was received. People can tell something was "not straight" about him. So take your dumb analysis out of here, it's not up to par.

by Anonymousreply 25April 23, 2019 1:27 AM

R25 that's not my analysis, but rather the OP's author's take on Pete

by Anonymousreply 26April 23, 2019 1:29 AM

Pete's good. Likeable and tenacious. Come on guys, let's go all in with Mayor Pete!

Mayor Pete is just another Corporatist Democrat. Like Hillary, but without any experience.

by Anonymousreply 28April 23, 2019 1:33 AM

Shows how much of a bubble the author lives in.

Most gays in "flyover states" speak and present themselves as Pete does. It's why Pete is resonating with so many people, because he's a real person and not a stereotypical, color by number gay that the media only ever shows as a representation of an diverse group of people.

R26 ah ok sorry

What college did he go to? Ivy League?

by Anonymousreply 31April 23, 2019 1:34 AM

South Bend Community College, R31

by Anonymousreply 32April 23, 2019 1:35 AM

Exactly and he is very gay because he has gay sex and gay romance.

Gay is not a personality! Stop with this nonsense.

by Anonymousreply 33April 23, 2019 1:35 AM

What?! Really? We can’t have a president who only went to community college. What a joke!

I’d bend over backwards for Mayor Pete.

Pete addresses his degree of gayosity in an interview with Harvey Levin-

Pete: I'm from Indiana, I'm gay as a -- I don't know. Think of something really gay-- that's how gay I am.

Mayor Pete is a war veteran. No one could take that away from him. He walked the walk. Not one other candidate, in this cycle, has done so.

I knew a guy who said he'd always been "as gay as a goose'.

I find geese fucking terrifying, and immediately removed him from my life.

What are you doing here, R39? Nothing wrong with being gay.

by Anonymousreply 40April 23, 2019 1:53 AM

You dont know his background. I grew up in the suburbs during the 70s and early 80s....I never met a gay person ....that I knew was gay....until my early 20s. Remember...it was different 40 years ago. People didnt flaunt their gayness publicly. Very few people were actually out of the closet.

Mayor Pete is a political genius isn't he? Gay or not, the man knows his shit, and gets political theater.

R34, try Google. He went to Harvard and Oxford.

Of course a gay would understand political [italic] theater

This is Jacob Bacharach, author of the article OP posted. I believe he identifies as queer, and that Buttigieg is too heteronormative in his behavior and thinking.

R46, I was right. This is obviously one of those queer activists who wants to take down any gay person who isn't visibly fem. The author just needs to get laid.

R49, the only thing he's missing is either a martini or pumpkin spice latte in his hand.

He's another souless career politician like Steny Hoyer.
