Can I get an informal ruling on this please? If I, a straight dude, were to wear this t-shirt, would that be

a) totally cool
b) cultural appropriation
c) something else

?

@rpardee Are you planning to wear a button? Because frankly based on your avatar you could be mistaken for almost any number on the clock

@rpardee (and that is not intended as pejorative, quite the opposite)

@rpardee
So long as you're fine being mistaken for a gay man, I see no reason not to wear it in solidarity, as an ally.
It may even give you some insight into what Gay men experience daily.

@rpardee
Excellent question. To "some" the shirt is redundant because to them being gay IS a crime. I am not gay or a criminal so I don't have a vote.
