Summary

This quote suggests that depending on one's perspective or "gay sensibility," the interpretation of something as antigay could differ. While some may perceive certain aspects in a negative light, others with a more positive outlook on gay life might view the same things differently. This implies that one's personal experiences and values play a significant role in shaping their perception of attitudes or ideas related to the LGBTQ+ community. Ultimately, it highlights the subjectivity in interpreting and evaluating opinions about homosexuality or gay culture.
