It can create negative stereotypes. It gives the wrong impression that there are non - consensual or forceful elements in gay relationships which is far from the truth.
It also has a negative effect on mental health. Hearing about gay bashing can cause stress, anxiety, and depression among the gay community. It makes them feel unsafe and unwanted in society. For example, a gay person might constantly worry about being the next victim after hearing such stories. And this can lead to self - isolation which further worsens their mental state.

Sharing such stories is unethical as it involves private and often sensitive medical and sexual aspects. Circumcision is a medical procedure, and when combined with 'erotic' in the context of gay relationships, it objectifies and disrespects the individuals involved. It also goes against privacy and good taste.
Even in the realm of LGBT literature, which explores a wide range of themes and experiences, this specific combination of 'gay' and 'erotic circumcision' is not a common narrative. Writers usually concentrate on broader issues such as coming out, acceptance, and the challenges faced in a homophobic society rather than this particular topic.

And in a social context, it could potentially fuel misunderstandings or stereotypes about the gay community if the stories are not well - written or are overly focused on the sexual aspects.
They have a very harmful impact. For one thing, they can make gay people doubt themselves and their identities, causing internalized homophobia. Moreover, in the society, these stories can fuel prejudice and discrimination. People who believe in these false stories may think that being gay is wrong and something that should be 'changed', which further marginalizes the LGBTQ+ community. Also, they can undermine the progress made in terms of LGBTQ+ rights and acceptance.
To a certain extent, they can have positive impacts. For one, they can provide a form of representation for gay sexual experiences that are often silenced or ignored in mainstream media. This can help gay individuals feel less alone and more validated in their sexual identities. Additionally, they can contribute to the overall body of gay literature, which is an important part of the LGBTQ+ cultural heritage. But at the same time, we need to be cautious about how they are presented to avoid objectification and misinformation.
