I Feel Sorry For

I'm going to write this exactly as I see it:

I feel sorry for any gay man not in a long-term, monogamous relationship.

I feel sorry for any gay man whose own homophobia leads him to self-abusive behavior, like smoking, drinking, drugging, and sleeping around. 

I feel sorry for any gay man whose own homophobia prevents him not only from loving himself but also from giving his heart to a special man.

I feel sorry for any gay man who says he's happy being single, when loneliness consumes him inside.

I feel sorry for any gay man who thinks he can rely on his youth, and his cuteness, and his muscular body to get whatever he wants in life.

I feel sorry for any gay man who doesn't believe that being with someone special, in a committed, loving relationship, is the preferred way to live.

I feel sorry for any gay man who doesn't think he's going to age, who believes he'll be young and beautiful and carefree forever.

I feel sorry for any gay man who gives away his body, as though it were not the most precious gift he has.

I feel sorry for any gay man who thinks his body is more important than his mind, his love for himself, and his self-respect.

I feel sorry for....
