Gay/bisexual men have it way harder than the equivalent woman does. The obvious example is that we see them get attacked every now and then on the news.
Being open about it in public is the scarier thing for me. Im not tall, nor am I a brickhouse. I dont yet carry a gun (ive been strongly considering it since forever, but im too lazy). And while there are things like "Gay-berhoods" in my area, theres also still the occasional guy that got the shit beat out of him (or killed) because he was with a guy in public. Thats scary.
Its actually started to open my eyes to what non-white people may feel on a day-to-day basis. Are african americans afraid to walk on the street because some racist fucks might attack them? How do they deal with hate groups that are clearly against them? Usually, these thoughts were boring to me...but I can relate more now.
@Rilla: Thats very similar to what I try to do in games, but I never purposefully choose a strategy I think will lose. I may go out of my way to not learn its effectiveness from online discussions, but otherwise I'm always playing to win.
