Why are lesbians more acceptable than gay men?

Tweet

Alright, you see on tv and in movies or even in public that lesbians are more acceptable than gay men, now why is that? I think that's pretty sexist and completely unfair. In shows, it supposedly pulls up the ratings. Does anyone else feel this way or just me? It really bugs me. I have gay friends and lesbian friends too and there is also a lot of discrimination but the kind that you wouldn't even think exists. I think it's a bit too much and shouldn't exist. Nothing's perfect in this world, right? And things won't evolve or get better overnight. It usually takes at least 5 years to a generation.
