Congresswoman Says 'Homoerotic' Side Of GOP's Masculinity Mania Can't Be Ignored

Article here. Why do feminist leftists try to use accusations of homosexuality against male politicians when it suits their aims but then OTOH insist there's "nothing wrong with people being gay" in other contexts? You would think the double-standard would be glaring even to leftists, but they stay quiet. And, why associate wanting to see fit men in our armed forces with homosexuality? Excerpt:

'Rep. Becca Balint (D-VT) thinks there’s something queer about Secretary Pete Hegseth’s fixation on masculinity.

The congresswoman weighed in on the U.S. military’s plans to test male service members’ testosterone levels, telling journalist Scott MacFarlane there’s something odd about being so obsessed with manliness while villainizing the LGBTQ community at the same time.

“I think it’s indicative of the fact that there are so many people in this administration that have some weird, like, intense, homoerotic feelings towards men while also being incredibly homophobic, and not just homophobic, but like, hate-mongering, fear-mongering about the LGBT community,” she said.'

Given how dedicated the U.S. congress is to foisting the "male only" "gender based violence" paradigm foisted through the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) and the apparent DOW assumption that "testosterone" will make military men "more manly," "more aggressive" one has to wonder about this whole thing as just a setup to trap more men in an insidious plot to dispose of more men made allegedly "more aggressive" with testosterone supplements given by the DOD, then pounced on by VAWA minions. This appears to be treading on the worst of all possible worlds for the gonads endowed sex, IMHO.

What distinctions will VAWA minions make between their "male only" "gender based violence" paradigm, and the DOW war's "'testosterone fueled,' 'increased male aggressiveness displays,'" when a complaint against a male is logged with law enforcement? Yeah, there's a giant of a devil in those details isn't there? Will testosterone supplements be given to DOW, female military members too? Will military women growing facial beards satisfy DOW's Hegseth in his testosterone agenda?

According to a Copilot search: "In males, the testes are the primary organ that produces testosterone. Located in the scrotum, the testes contain specialized cells called Leydig cells in their interstitial (connective) tissue, which synthesize and secrete testosterone into the bloodstream hishealthmag.com+1."
