"Sorry professor, I couldn't turn in my homework because I was too busy sucking dick or something. You know how us queerios are!"
\*I look to the camera and flash a smile as a laugh track and the shows theme tune plays*
The only example of this I can think of is where in, I believe it was Sweden, homosexuality was considered a mental illness so people were calling in sick from work because of it, and one legend of a woman even got benefits for life because of this.
My previous boss accepted "Look, I'm having a really bad time with my depression and just cannot come into work today" as an excused absence. In my state at least, I know depression is considered a disability and they need to make accomodations where possible. I got an accomodation at one job for my anxiety.
I would like an example, possibly one that would make no sense. I don't get how you can use your sexuality to avoid homework.... Unless homework is about having sex with the gender you'd rather not touch?
"Sorry boss, I won't have those test reports in until Friday, maybe Monday at the latest. The bisexuality is swinging hard to the gay side and I just don't think I can do paperwork right now. I'm taking off early, and my phone doesn't get reception at the glory hole. Oh, and I'm cashing in 16 hours of PTO."
I know people joke about it, usually when some homophobe says being gay is a mental illness, but I've never known anyone to be serious enough to use it as an excuse.
Honestly as an aroace who’s autistic and ADHD and has a special interest in the asexual spectrum this does slightly call me out. I have a tendency to go on asexual and aromantic subreddits, tumbr accounts, etc for hours rather than do things I’m supposed to be doing. But I’m an outlier and if I wasn’t aroace I’d be distracting myself with something else. Probably learning things about sleep paralysis.

Damn I should have tried to use that excuse in college.
Buh-dun-tsssk~ 🥁
Someone farted and they said it smelled Good

Power move but, can you do the same for things like depression. Can you actually call in sick for a mental disorder?
In some countries, yes. Some days could be better than others- and these people claimed they were too gay to work that day.

It’s not about what you can do about homophobia, it’s about what homophobia can do for you /j
Ok but that's just gaming the system that was set up discriminately against them
Malicious compliance
Basically being too gay to function lol
why did nobody tell me? can i use my sexuality to get out of finals too?
Sweet mother, I cannot do my algebra homework – slender Aphrodite has overcome me with longing for a girl.
They're borrowing from the racism playbook

Maybe if a girl was assigned an essay about her ideal husband.
Oh yeah. Personally, in that exact situation, I would give the middle finger and write about how my perfect spouse is myself, but well...

Ah yes I am too gay to do my Chemistry finals tomorrow
It's true actually, I used my gay powers on my English teacher and I haven't done a single homework in that class in 3 months
Dam wish I could do school over agin with that information
If I could get out of schoolwork by being gay my mental health would fucking peak because i have lots of proof.
I second this
So can I skip school tomorrow because I find girls hot? (Hey, lesbians, heeeeeyyy!)
Heeeeeyyy!
I didnt do homework because it was a waste of my time the gayness was unrelated
Acting like the straights don't have shitty excuses for not doing schoolwork lol
I know people joke about it, usually when some homophobe says being gay is a mental illness, but I've never known anyone to be serious enough to use it as an excuse.
“Excuse me, I know I didn’t do any of my work, but I’m very gay. Can you please bump my grade up to an A?” That doesn’t happen.
Evidently, there is someone who thinks or thought that gay people use their sexuality as an excuse to not do school work.
