Dealing
with the outside world
MCs and closet cases
Some people would rather keep a picture of us being “just
good friends,” in their minds than to imagine two women
going at it. Maybe it would turn them on too much, or maybe
they would be jealous because of the multiple orgasms that
lesbians are capable of, or maybe they don’t want to
face something within themselves. Whatever the reason, most
straight people I know are fine with the fact I am lesbian,
as long as I don’t talk about it too much. I have also
found that many of the people who are homophobic, or disturbed
by who I am, are unsure of their own sexuality. My girlfriend
and I term some of these people “MCs” (for “missed
their calling”). And then there are the “closet
cases,” a breed all their own.
You can spot MCs everywhere you go, especially when they
are a “straight” couple. The man will seem totally
gay and the woman will seem lesbian, and the couple will
be quite obvious to anyone who has an ounce of Gaydar. Sometimes
they will not have a clue that they have missed their calling,
and can live their whole lives together in a loving friendship.
Some are not satisfied with their lives, but never quite
know why.
Different from the MCs are the “closet cases.”
Closet cases know in their heart that they are lesbian or
bisexual, but will not admit it to themselves or others.
They didn’t miss their calling, they simply refuse
to accept it. Some live in conventional “straight”
relationships, but have secret same-sex lovers on the side.
Other times they force themselves to be straight or celibate,
and subsequently they are not happy. These are the people
to watch out for. They are the ones who will seduce you
into affairs, then call you sick; glare evilly at you in
public situations and whisper about you behind your back;
and some may even tell your boss and coworkers that you
are queer. The ones I’ve been in contact with always
seem to want to make my life as miserable as possible. I
believe they do this on a subconscious level in order to
validate their belief that being gay is a horrible existence.
It seems they hate their own gayness so much, that they
project their hatred away from themselves and onto some
other person.
The funny thing about MCs and closet cases is this: if being
a homo is a biological thing, which most scientists are
saying it is, then wouldn’t people who are gay but
are “choosing” to be straight have more of a chance
of producing queer kids? And if this is true, then all the
televangelists who are telling everyone that they can “choose
to be straight” are really helping to bring more homos
into the world. Hmmm, now isn’t that something to ponder?
Instead of us luring straight god fearin’ people into
our lifestyle, they are actually helping us to be born!
Think about this as we touch on the next section.
