Just popping in from my lurking, as you made me think of the song. 
On a side note, regarding this song, U2 performed it during their Popmart tour in the late 90âs. During one performance they sang it with Davey Jones.

Today I got flagged twice in one day on the same post for disagreeing with the insensitive use of the word gatekeeping being used against people disagreeing with someone over stupid internet things when itâs something Iâve experienced multiple times as a trans guy.

why is this even a thing to talk about? if youâre getting so mistreated, just donât tell others youâre gay/trans, donât need to reveal your gender or sexual preference to get along with players, just focus on the game and nothing is to worry about, use your brains, iâve played with plenty of gay players, and we get along by simply not verifying theyâre gay, no one cares if youâre gay or not, but you will trigger others the more you remind certain players

Why shouldnât we talk about it?
Why should we hide what we are just because youâre uncomfortable?
Why didnât you just mute the thread and move on?

What does being gay have to do with your health?
Itâs a sexual orientation not a race, sex, or anything that can actually have an impact on general health.

A lot.
Recommend you educate yourself on it when you have a chance. Might be enlightening.

So being gay makes you more susceptible to diseases or have more resistance? Like come onâŚ
Now if youâre talking about mental health due to bigotry then sure, but I donât see how being gay will affect your physical health.

Like I said, best you educate yourself. Not my job to tell you.
If youâre not interested in such matters, mute thread and move on.

At most I can imagine that stress brought on by bigotry and such could make the body more susceptible to illness.

âRead your first post. You walked in adding stress.â
Are you a psychologist?
A medical doctor?
Do you have any expertise to base that on or is it just your feeling?
Like I said, you should consider educating yourself when you have time.
Otherwise there isnât much point to your posts here. Youâre clearly not interested.
The mute button is right there.
That no one here needs to answer.
You can do so on your own without bothering people here.

I asked what does being gay have to do with physical health, and I pretty much answered it my self.
So how am I adding to it stress. And why do u keep quoting yourself.

âIn your first post you said they should all HIDE what they are. That is a big part of the problem. They shouldnât be told to hide, just because they are different.â

Itâs their thing.
If I remember correctly itâs something you encounter with older folks, a relic from earlier messaging systems in some circles.
