Is it normal that being gay is not "exciting" anymore?
I remember my young gay days. Those weren't easy days. A lot of discrimination and constant fear. However, there was a strong sense of comradeship in the community. If I ever had a problem, I knew I could count on my gay friends.
It was just a type of bond that cannot be explained. It was like living in a secret community. We felt like secret agents, defending our cause from evil.
But now, everything has changed. Homosexuality is not meant to be a secret anymore. Every group of people have a gay friend. Gays don't need to hang out with each other now, they have normal people. So yeah, even though it is best in a way... we kind of lost this special bond I was talking about earlier.
I don't want to sound awful, but I just feel kind of sad about it. Even though I can be friends with everyone now, everything was still much easier before. So... is this normal?
