    When I first came out thirteen years ago, gay men seemed to be very oppressive to gay women. Tokenism was in! Some of this oppressiveness may have resulted from the men feeling threatened, especially physically. As many gay men said, "I'm afraid to look at a Diesel Butch cross eyed because she'll hit me over the head. They're always ready to fight."
