last year, this guy i knew who was gay went back to india and got married to a girl. i was furious because there is no reason to ruin someone's life. that poor girl has no business being dragged into this mess. however many of the men in my community were sympathetic to his cause.

it made me question how important being a feminist was to be vs being part of the lgbt community etc.

when these conflicts occur, its not just the external world that questions you, you question where you stand too
