I hate it.

I am a gay man, gay men come with a certain amount of drama built in. Then there is this whole segment of the gay population who when posting on OkCupid, or Grindr, or whatever... "No drama".

Well guess what boys, life has drama built in everyday. I also feel it is some kind of self-deprication/or internal homophobia and yes even us gays have that.

I call bullshit on the "No Drama" in this quite dramatic post.
