“Gay face” demeaning to Gays?

Is "Gay face" such a bad thing?

OUT magazine’s Alex Wilburn posted on their blog Popnography today a recap of a recent gay-themed episode of ‘Degrassi’ in which he remarks on the issues of coming out in high school for gay character Riley, who is the star football player for Degrassi High.

Wilburn notes, in relation to gay society today, that ” we assume gay teens are naturally accepting,” eventually building up to the fact that in today’s LGBT society gays are hating their own kind more than ever. Who’s more straight? Who’s more gay? Can someone be more-or-less gay?

He then calls into action and ask that gays “stop dividing into groups or using terms like ‘gayface’” in which he referenced Popwired’s post of a new kid on Gossip Girl that we thought looked gay.

Did we make a slip-up by using the term “gay face” instead of identifying the character by his real name or some other snarky term? Sure, we did. But does Popwired saying “Gay face” really go against the gay agenda and destroy future hopes of gays getting along together? Not at all, that’s just how we do stuff here — randomly!

For us to say “gay face”, it just merely means that they’re handsome and well moisturized.

What do you think, were we in the wrong?
