I just got ordered some hot pink headphones...
Pretty much just because of how gay they look...

20th Jul 2008, 07:17 PM

Ya although most people assume I'm straight so people just think its metro and sleek.

**Owen** · 20th Jul 2008, 07:39 PM

I wish I had more gay apparel. It's sad how straight my wardrobe is.

Andrew · 20th Jul 2008, 08:01 PM

nope never will in public.. unless in a gay club.

I wear only bright clothes (not neon, but just you know, colorful)
I'm wearing a rainbow bracelet my friend made me.. . I think that's the only thing I have that's gay looking.

BreakingGlass · 20th Jul 2008, 08:07 PM

I did buy just a normal black screen printed shirt 2 sizes to small. It's super tight and I look okay if I dont eat or breathe.

I dress like a straight, vaguely metrosexual guy, which is my style, so I don't care.

xballetxbeautyx · 20th Jul 2008, 09:30 PM

Ummm, I have a pride shirt. Does that count? If you're talking stereotypical gay, like, for me, all butch and whatnot, then no. But I need to go back to Hot Topic and get more fun pride stuff. ~megan~

shakerdancee · 20th Jul 2008, 09:44 PM

Rainbow belts!

otc877 · 20th Jul 2008, 09:51 PM

It's usually the opposite for me.

**Lexington** · 20th Jul 2008, 10:12 PM

Just on Pride Day. I wear a rainbow inverted-triangle necklace. I do have a t-shirt that's kinda gay, but I don't wear it for that reason - I just kinda like it.

No, not really. I've never once looked at a piece of clothing and thought "That's so gay, I have to have one!". I don't wear rainbows of any sort because for one, I'm not out yet, and two, I don't like rainbows in general. I don't like polos, or pink shirts, or tight pants...

Geist · 20th Jul 2008, 10:16 PM

I wear a rainbow bracelet (but that's more so my forgetful friends remember not to try to hook me up with a chick)
And on the odd occasion I have been known to wear a rainbow shirt but all my friends tell me that I act so straight no one who was talking to me would guess that I am gay because of it.

I love rainbows! At the moment I'm wearing a fake rainbow wristband (it's a piece of rainbow-striped ribbon tied around my wrist). I also have rainbow earrings, necklace, scarf, beanie, headscarf, socks, and ring. So basically, if something's rainbow, I buy it.

AeonToy · 21st Jul 2008, 12:32 AM

i bought my first pair of gay-ish clothing last week. i felt like it was kind of monumental

....just a hat and shorts if ur interested in what i got

Miaplacidus · 21st Jul 2008, 02:03 AM

Yes. I love gay stuff

**Gerry** · 21st Jul 2008, 02:05 AM

Yeah I have. But you know what? I don't care what anyone else thinks of my wardrobe or appearance.

interstella · 21st Jul 2008, 02:09 AM

My wardrobe is becoming gayer every day. I'm trying to get the message across to my friends without actually telling them.

WhiteFox · 21st Jul 2008, 02:12 AM

I honestly dont like the "look" of gay. im bi all the way but i just like looking like a typical guy myself

**Corny** · 21st Jul 2008, 06:55 AM

Since it seems that one tends to forget that I'm gay around here, I sometimes wear my "Sorry ladies, I'm gay!" shirt to remind them
