    My straight friends are all idiots, okay? :roflmao:
    Here are a few of the dumb questions/remarks that I've gotten when coming out to my friends :eusa_doh::

    >"Wait, so are you hitting on me?"
    >"Okay, from a gay perspective am I sexy?"
    >"I don't understand, are you gay or straight?"
    >"Bi? Like Bipolar?"
    >"OMG! Can I ship you with....(random gay people IDK)?"
    >"Wait, so when I called you a f***** I was actually right?"
    >"So do you have a boyfriend or a girlfriend?"
    >"But you don't give off a gay vibe!"
    >"I don't want to date you."
    >"Wait, bisexuality is actually a thing?"

    I have so many more of these to share, but I want to hear some of the dumb things you've heard when coming out to people.

    O.K. I’m totally sensitive to biphobia.

    And then there is bi easure (not that I don’t understand when some homosexual people are questioning, I just resent it when someone who is homosexual knowingly uses the ‘bi’ label to ‘ease’ their Coming Out or even thinks that it is ‘easier’ to (again, knowingly) first Come Out as ‘bi.’’

    So, to comments I’ve heard:
    “You’re actually just gay, but you don’t understand it yet.” (Gay guys saying this.)
    “Well, since you like guys, you must really be gay.” (Straight guys saying this.)
    “Oh, so I guess that explains why such a nice, handsome guy like yourself has never married.”
    “So you aren’t really a guy?” (From someone who totally misunderstood the difference between sexual orientation and gender identity.)
    “So, you just want to have sex with everyone.” (WTF?)
    “Of course, if you are THAT way, you can never be happy in a monogamous relationship…” (???)
    “I don’t think I can ever be the person you need.” (A former boyfriend who was insecure and who completely erroneously thought that I needed to be with both genders at all time to be satisfied.)

    "Don't tell anybody yet, you might just be straight and curious."
    "Are you sure you're not straight?"
    "I knew it, you look gay!"
    "I wanted to experiment too, at your age."
    "I ONLY SEE YOU AS A FRIEND"
    "But you were dating a guy!"
