How can you tell a guy is a gay?

• when it's not as obvious

**lostinthought9** · 17th Jun 2009, 05:24 PM

You can't.

...or at least I can't...

17th Jun 2009, 05:29 PM

Ooh! Ooh!
I answered that already!

Generally, gay men are attracted to men.
(Oh, you wanted to know how to figure out if someone is gay without having any sort of interaction? Can't help you there.)

Tim · 17th Jun 2009, 05:32 PM

You can't, that's kind of the point of having Gaydar XD

ProfessorLepus · 17th Jun 2009, 06:19 PM

I look at the eyes. Gay eyes look different somehow. Also, if they have any pride accessories. Also, see what they pay attention to. Gay men won't pay attention to Victoria's Secret commercials, but they might closely study that one Armani cologne commercial where a half-naked man is diving into a pool of water in slow motion... I love that one. :P

CrystalCat · 17th Jun 2009, 06:23 PM

I have to agree, with the gay eyes!!! Idk how, but gay guys have that special twinkle in their eye.

Just Adam · 17th Jun 2009, 06:34 PM

look for flailing arms and expessive emotion

... and the little neck thing

Black Cat · 17th Jun 2009, 06:40 PM

I actually don't have really good gaydar at all, it leads to some embarassing situations sometimes. I do get a feeling with some guys, but it could just be my imagination.

17th Jun 2009, 06:44 PM

yup, gay guys have shifty eyes. ever notice how when you walk past a hot guy you cant just stare but at the same time you cant look away?

and when passing a "hot" girl we either dont notice, or try to make it look like we notice and it looks about the same as walking past a hot guy

gay guys also tend to have an overactive butt

I totally agree, and I don't know what the hell it is. I thought I was the only one that ever noticed that.

Like Shakira, it gyrated all over the place, breaking and bumping into things.

I agree with the eyes it's like their lower eyelid is raised, to a squinty look.
