I'm so gay. - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

Hi everyone! I thought it would be fun to start a thread about some of the funny things that tipped us off about being gay or, in retrospect, probably should have.

For example:
- I love blazers
- I had an unhealthy Spice Girls obsession
- I've watched all six seasons of The L Word, in order, twice

Jessica816 · 15th Nov 2011, 06:45 PM

I've always loved Melissa Etheridge, I use to play the "I'm the only one" video over and over! Haha I should've known then!

Rooni321 · 15th Nov 2011, 06:53 PM

This might not apply but
I felt like a total perve when I went to visit an all girls college this weekend x)
Soooo many girls!

Hilarious!

I should add... I have almost 200 post on some gay website called "empty closets."

Hah. Try 130 in... a week or something? -has no sense of time- Something less than pushing out of November, anyway

J Snow · 15th Nov 2011, 07:11 PM

I pretended to be a girl online.

I used to pretend to be "sleeping" while my sister watched the powerpuff girls and Sailor Moon, but secretly I'd have my eyes cracked and loved to watch them =P

I can't think of anything else off the top of my head, but if I'm sure there's more.

Rooni321 · 15th Nov 2011, 08:09 PM

Actually I just thought of a good one!
I watch MANswers religiously and I felt my gayest this day where me and another guy checked out the same girl at the same time. Oh god x)

I tend to do a double take when I see a man with a full beard, somewhat bigger (not fat?), and glasses....so sexy...

Zontar · 15th Nov 2011, 08:16 PM

I made out with a guy.

Doesn't get much gayer than that. =p

For your enjoyment. No need to thank me! *slips on shades* B)

thecat06 · 15th Nov 2011, 08:31 PM

I always played with the guys, had no intrest in "normal" girl toys, and connected more with the men in my family then the women. I also dreaded the "girls night out" that my family has sometimes, because I felt like the odd one out.

More than 7000

I think I have the 9th-highest post count on here.

I have softball medals and I once walked into a wall because I was distracted by the poster for The Other Boleyn Girl.

Chouchou · 15th Nov 2011, 09:09 PM

I have always wanted to have radio-controlled cars.
Boys would always ask to play my video games when they went to my house for parties. I have an SNES, N64, Gamecube, Nintendo DS, and Playstation 2.
As a child, I preferred shorts, pants, and t-shirts to dresses.
I pulled the heads and clothes off of Barbie dolls.
The vast majority of images of humans or humanoids on my computer are of women.
I have always been interested in pregnant women and childbirth. (not sure about this one)
I have made many lesbian Sim couples (including two or three with a Sim of myself), but only one gay Sim couple. I loved watching the lezzy Sims flirt and kiss, but watching the gay couple flirt kind of turned me off.
I once deliberately cried over a girl while in elementary school.

Ditto. Then again I am a lesbian in a man's body.

I had this phase in first grade where I was completely obsessed with rainbows. I even took on a project where I made place mats for everyone in my extended family which consisted of me writing out their name with rainbow colors radiating outwards from the letters. Each took me hours, and I did it for all 15 people on my mom's side of the family.

Yeah, that's the "gayest" thing about me. Other than that, I was a very normal boy.

needshelp · 15th Nov 2011, 09:24 PM

i loved the rainbow color spectum as a kid.

all the colors were special to me. it was always dull when it was only just one color.

i also loved rainbow italian ices too.

every other flavor sucked.

would smile uncontrollably or look away from the tv screen when i would see a hottie. oh boy, all signs pointed to gay.

i was also a huge mama's boy and still am. my mom's my best friend.

used to mess with my mom's ban deodorant, that nail sharpener thingy that women like to use to keep their nails sharp, and was very much into hygenie as a kid too. getting my metrosexual on.

was very feminine as well. limp wrist, holding my legs together, very very girly but at the same time, i was busy practicing wrestling moves on my friends, dropping them and the whole nine.
