  1. 1. Is it okay to Out married gay or bi men who are going to gay bathhouses or sex parties.

    • No, everyone has a right to privacy.

    • Yes. Privacy is not absolute. Social responsibility matters; Being bi or gay is not a [banned word] or disease to be hidden.

It is pathetic that any of us have to suffer those worries.

Yes, it's that at the very least. 

On the less-dark side though, and despite the recent resurgence of hatred on the part of other citizens fearful of their loss of status, sorrows come to us all at some point.  What counts is how we deal with them, come to terms with them, and continue to move on with our lives. 

The other half of coming into this world is leaving it one day.  It's what we do, who we aspire to become, how we live our daily lives while we're here that counts.

Lets be honest DL people have toxic behaviors supported by them being closeted so If their life or job are not threatened I feel they should be outed. Like whats literally the worst that can happen to them?  A little bit of quick "shame" its better than long term toxicity

Maybe it's better; maybe it's not. But the point is, you don't get to make that decision for the other person.

I should add: I think it's far more effective to encourage the person to come out, and be supportive of every step, no matter how small, they take to do so.

One could also just refuse to have sex with guys who are "DL".

Well, guys who can't accept themselves in their wholeness, probably can't offer any possible "connection" either.  What's there to "connect" with in the first place? 

Might just as well skip that guy and fuck/breed/connect with a guy who's happy and confident in who he really is.

I ultimately answered yes.   Why?  Because I don't have an obligation to make sure their secrets remain secrets.  Now, I am not gonna take out ads and I don't need to broadcast it.  But if I were asked by, for example, the guys spouse if he is doing his bathhouse thing; I don't feel an obligation to lie for him.

In my opinion, a mans sexuality is primarily a private matter between a man and other humans taking his cock inside them or putting their cock inside him. As long as he isn't repressing homosexuality and bisexuality in his public life, there should never be a reason to publicly out him. We are all multifaceted, and not everyone wants their sexuality to be a primary aspect of their public persona.
