I'm gay and disabled, and I can unequivocally say I've faced WAY more adversity and microaggressions throughout my life for being disabled than I have for being gay. And I've faced A LOT of shit for being gay.

Obviously, those factors could be flipped amidst the experiences of other homosexual people with disabilities. But that's how intersectionality works -- it won't be the same for everyone.
