In February, Chas Newkey-Burden wrote a cri de coeur about gay men’s misogyny in the Daily Telegraph. I felt compelled to respond in Attitude. Do I think some gay men are misogynistic? Yes. Do I think those particular gay men are misogynistic as a consequence of their being gay? No. In fact, the ‘woman-hating’ homosexual is a damaging stereotype that our persecutors and haters just love to perpetuate.
