2020 presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg lamented that he no longer reads LGBT-based media because it makes him question if he fits into the community.

The mayor from South Bend, Indiana, discussed being himself in LGBT circles with SiriusXM host Clay Cane on The Clay Cane Show.

“I’m sure you’ve heard this before in LGBT circles, that more masculine-presenting men have more access. How different would it be if you were quote-unquote, ‘more effeminate?'” the radio host asked.

“It's tough for me to know. I just am what I am, and, you know, there’s going to be a lot of that. That’s why I — I can’t even read the LGBT media anymore, because it’s all, ‘too gay, not gay enough, wrong kind of gay,'” Buttigieg stated. “All I know is that life became a lot easier when I just started allowing myself to be myself and I’ll let other people write up whether I’m ‘too this’ or ‘too that.'”

The mayor is the first openly gay candidate to mount a significant run for the presidency. Despite being gay, a number of people have publicly speculated if Buttigieg's sexual orientation was enough to differentiate him from the other white presidential candidates.
