I learned some things in my friendship with this fellow. Like how they gossip about women who wish to acquire Gay Friends labeling them as "Fag Hags" and other such social curiosities.
the problem is that eventually I met the GF and he moved to San Francisco and he became FLAMING! He was not the "regular fellow" I once knew and enjoyed a friendship with and he had evolved in a way which makes it a bit uncomfortable for an orthodox fellow like me to hang-out with as before if we went out people would not have thought much of the either of us and we would have just blended into the crowd(so long as it was a reasonably socially diverse society)
he led a promiscuous life during that time we had drifted apart.....and according to his words "enjoyed himself too much" and ended up with one of those diseases which is the "Gift that keeps on Giving" not Aids but some other promiscuous disease
and his evolution caused me sadness. He lost his "innocence". The outward change in physical appearance, the impact on health, the chronic smoking..... This influenced my own social evolution in thinking. I was never one to participate in a Gay Rights parade or anything like but now I am more of a position of trying to practice a kind of compassionate understanding without HATE while recognizing society should not be PROMOTING LGBTQ and in this personal social evolution I realized FAUX CONservative "muh family values" support for prostitution and PORNwatching and how FC(FauxCONservative) should be added to the LGBTQ acronym for their DELUSION
