Not every repressed gay person is a cunt. Not every cunt is a repressed gay person.
But some of these aggresively anti-LGBT+ cunts sure look like they're in the intersection.
Edit: IDK if the phrasing "repressed gay" works in English? If it's wrong, let me know
Repressed gay works just fine tbh, most people probably use "closeted" but that's more colloquial.
However, referring to a gay person as a "gay" can be a bit problematic as it strips their personhood from the statement. A lot of bigots will refer to gay people that way to imply they are lesser. I dunno if that's how it works in other languages, but at least in English it's generally more respectful to refer to groups as people specifically. So you'd always say "gay people" or "black people" and etc.
Fixed that then. I chose repressed over closeted, as I feel it emphasises the point that they're pushing themselves deeper into the closet, but maybe that's a linguistic nuance I'm misunderstanding.
That's a fair point, actually, repressed probably is more accurate for what your saying
