    about your sexual orientation.

    I thought about this topic after a conversation I had yesterday with a fellow student in the cafeteria. I had come out to him after taling about my gf a few weeks prior to yesterday, after a heated game of ping-pong with him in the lounge.

    He came up to me yesterday, sat down and was rather polite about it. He said, "I don't mean to offend you but... can you tell if other people are gay? Like for real?"

    This actually made me smile. I replied with "Well... my radar is on the fritz for now... but honestly, you can never tell unless someone tells you or dresses/acts very stereotypically." *pause* "Why do you ask?"

    "Oh... well, I've had some people come up and ask me if I am."

    "Hm."

    "Do you think I'm gay?"

    I didn't want to offend him but he wanted my honest opinion so I told him, "...Well to be honest I did when I met you. But that probably wasn't fair of me to assume based on the tone and sound of your voice and some hand gestures."

    "Ugh, I don't get it..."

    "Well you know, if you are gay there's nothing wrong with that. Just as there's nothing wrong with the sky being blue or grey."

    The poor guy... he says he's straight, but he has a bit of a feminine sounding voice and does some effeminate male hand gestures and I think that's what blips the gaydar of people, even though he is sure he's straight.


    -------------------
    ----
    So what are some interesting questions you've been asked since you've come out?
    (I apologize if this is in the wrong section. But I figured it's a topic for 'chat'.)

    I was once asked: "well don't you think what your doing is wrong?"

    to which a series of why questions were asked by me, it was fun.

    I got asked once if I was put in a room with this other girl who is apparently very hot (I don't really see it) and she was naked and the door locked, and we weren't allowed out until we had done it, would I do it with her. I really don't know the answer to that but meh, also someone came up to me today and asked if I had shoved a banana (the fruit) up my ass. The answer was a quite angry no.

    someone was asking me why gays are gay.
    i said simply 'why are you straight'
    they replied that 'because being straights right'
    i asked why
    they told me 'bbbbbut all gay people are wrong and should die!'
    i yelled back 'well if you straight people stopped having gay babies!' and walked off feeling rather smug :grin:

    i actually feel sorry for the guy. my voice isnt feminine but its a different sound to most guys. maybe you could say i still sound like a young lad. people assume im gay from that tho, well alot of people do anyway, i just shrug it off. its either im gay or im a rite wee chav hahha.

    "Is there such thing as a selfless act?"
    To which I answered no to.
    "Could I spread cheesecake on your nipples?"

    "So do you like butch or femme women?" kinda threw me for sheer bluntness, haha. The answer to which would be "yes", though. =P

    That, and my friend once asked me, "So how does it even come up that you start asking yourself if you're a lesbian? Did it just pop into your head one day?" And I had no idea how to answer that. I really couldn't pinpoint when I started questioning. :confused:

    But that's about it, really. Nothing too exciting. That's what I get for being an art major; nobody ever bats an eye to find out one of us is queer. =P

    "If you're going to have sex with a girl with a strap-on why not just have sex with a guy?" kind of threw me for a loop. So...much...fail...
    I get asked way too many questions about sex. The most common would have to be "what do two girls even do in bed?" immediately followed by "but don't you feel like you're missing out?" I needto give them the studies about girls and penetration.

    My mom - "Why didn't you ever say anything?"

    Ugh. Really mom? What was I supposed to say? "How was your day? oh and by the way I like guys!"

    "What about breasts though??"
    To which I gave the (somewhat avoidable) answer:
    "Go ask a lesbian, I am not an expert in the field"

    My roommate asked me this yesterday when we were talking about the only guy he ever knew who went to a tanning salon. It's not about my orientation per se, but I think it fits the theme of the thread.

    Me: "So, was he gay?"
    Roommate: "How can I say "super-fag" without offending the gay community?"

    I remember being asked 'So, are you still gay'.

    I still don't understand quite how that works.

    I had a friend who just had some crazy stupid moments.

    "Wait, so do gay people watch gay porn?"
    *facepalm*
    "So do lesbians like lesbian porn then too?"
    *sigh* They don't just make it for straight guys ya know.

    I then had to proceed to convince him that he was metro, and not gay just because he could admit when another guy was good-looking. Not that it stops gay people from hitting on him, but he could start wearing guys pants, and maybe not work at Hot Topic :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
