did you know that in 1953 eisenhower issued an executive order which banned gay people from being employed in government
and it was specifically to root out lesbians who enjoyed the job security of government work
“To protect their careers, lesbian government workers moderated their behavior to avoid suspicion. They refused to socialize with other lesbians in public, attended social functions with gay men as their ‘dates,’ and carefully chose their wardrobes and makeup to project a feminine persona. Male employees who resented reporting to a female boss could trigger an investigation into her sexuality.” – Robert J Corber “Cold War Femme”
this era was called the lavender scare and was both a direct result of mccarthyism and the classification of homosexuality as a mental illness during ww2. over 10,000 lesbians and gay men lost their jobs and as a result the daughters of bilitis (the first ever lesbian activist group in the u.s.) formed in order to protect themselves and gay men

straight ppl really think gays just hate other gays who aren’t open about their sexuality hence why so many coming out stories written by straight ppl have openly gay characters telling closeted characters they need to come or else they hate themselves like bitch that’s not self hatred that’s just protecting yourself and exercising ur right to privacy
I don’t think straight people really think we hate closeted people. I think THEY hate closeted people because it makes them uncomfortable that the gays could be among them without them instantly knowing. I think they hate closeted people because they feel entitled to know intimate details about our ~lurid~ lives. But they know they can’t just SAY that so they put it in the mouths of fictional gay people for plausible deniability.
