I don’t think that today’s culture “wants everyone to be gay.” It’s more acceptable today, for good reason, but most reasonable people aren’t forcing others to be gay. However, there is small but very vocal minority of people that wants others to conform to their particular social/political viewpoints (SJWs, as they’re called). It can seem as if society “wants everyone to be gay” because these people talk over the rest of us rational LGBT people.

@MichelleC23, right. while I am accepting and have been bi curious myself before, I just feel like not everyone deserves to be called a ‘homophobe’ for having different beliefs.

@pancake, No, I don’t mean because I’m seeing it everywhere. I mean there are people who have literally told me “no, you’re gay.” When I specifically said I am not. I feel that this is the way a lot of people in our culture talk, but especially triggering for those who have HOCD.

No, but it seems to want to force acceptance of the lifestyle, regardless of one's beliefs for or against active homosexuality...

Thanks for clarifying. I do think that SJWs was what I was trying to get at, although couldn’t quite put my finger on it. It isn’t right to tell someone who they’re attracted to.

Hi! Queer person here :). In my experience, society does not want everyone to be gay. It is pride month tho, in many areas, and sometimes that leaks into July. It is likely you are seeing a ton of gay themed stuff right now, as a lot of companies are pushing towards being more inclusive and accepting of all types of people. This is the first year where I noticed it, to the point where i was like "wow, we get it, rainbows everywhere." It is quite in your face. I can totally understand how this can be triggering to someone who has themes that revolve around the fear of being gay.

Serious question: Are obsessions about being gay driven by homophobia?

Does anybody else obsess with other people being gay and start thinking that everybody is gay and then think because they do this it makes them gay

i just has a thought that i would like to share... i think that a lot of teens could be going through HOCD in this day and age because there is so much about the LGBTQ community in the media (not like that’s a bad thing btw) back in the day, like maybe the 90s, HOCD was categorised as “fear of being gay” not “fear of being bi” i think a lot of us teens have a fear of being bi because that is seen as a valid sexuality but back in the day i don’t think it was. it was either all or nothing. being gay used to be seen as such a taboo so back then if you were to tell anyone you were getting intrusive thoughts about being gay it would be seen as ghastly and horrible. but now you tell someone who doesn’t get the nature of Pure O and they’d say “oMg iTs 2020 aCcEpT yOuRsElF, gEt WiTh ThE tImEs” which makes it harder for us teens to get through this. i also had a thought that depending on whether you’re a girl or guy, HOCD is difficult in different ways most straight girls watch lesbian porn cus it focuses on female pleasure - HOCD manipulates that i’ve seen tweets saying shit like “how are women even straight have you see a woman naked?” - like sis....really? i’ve seen articles saying women are never straight either bi or lesbian- ....anyways.... - being a straight girl going through HOCD, seeing all that is difficult and not only this but HOCD is focused heavily on straight men and it really pisses me off. all the books i’ve real on HOCD all talk about men specifically and their groinal responses and it’s like...what about me? for guys: the groinal response is more noticeable that’s the biggest struggle i could think of for guys since i don’t know what you guys go through exactly i’ve been told by people that i give of a bisexual vibe because i’m quirky....i literally don’t even know at this point, i could breathe and someone would be like “oMg YoUrE sO bIsExUaL” (ง'̀-'́)ง i kinda want HOCD to be spoken about more cus i feel like it’s one of those OCD subcategories that aren’t really deemed as that important since being gay isn’t a taboo anymore. i feel this way too with ROCD these have just been my thoughts, agree or not idc i just wanted to express my feelings ( ˘ ³˘)♥
