I tried a lame search for this but didn't find it.
I thought that this may help other people out there who are questioning there sexuality.....
I'll start off with a few things that made me pause and think about my orientation.

You know you might be gay if....

1) you can count on one hand the # of times you've had sex EACH year of 16yrs marriage(including newlyweded year)

2) you try to deep throat a banana (oh yes I did try. several times lol)

3) When shopping at Walmart, you spend a lot of time in the mens underwear aisle looking at all the hot undie models...and you don't even need any!!!!!!

4) You have an unusually strong interest in Broadway musicals or musical theater

5) You play oboe, bassoon, or clarinet

6) You are a male dancer in jazz, tap, ballet, or modern.

(These are very often true but are definitely stereotypes. To those offended by stereotypes... try and see the humor in them

)

7) You want to wear pink. (I did, when I came out! Its something I felt I needed to do!)

8) if your idea of a rusty trombone does not involve the actual instrument.

9)you put a hand on the back of your head while eating an ice-cream cone

I love the oboe and would love to play it, I wasn't aware of that stereotype though.
Maybe my friends would actually suspect that I am gay if they knew what an oboe was!

Uhh, she was pregnant....I was really tired... I commuted Mon-Fri and only saw her on weekends. I really don't know if she thought that. Once I'm out to her I guess I'll find out.

To derail the thread for a moment, I'll plug my most-favorite-book-in-the-whole-world for gay men here. It's "Ten Smart Things Gay Men can do to find Real Love" by Joe Kort. It has several chapters relating to heterosexually married gay men that talk in detail about the issues these men have when they come out to their wives, and I think you'd find it really useful. (It's a simply amazing book otherwise, and in spite of the title, has little to do with "finding real love" and everything to do with understanding yourself.)

And now back to our regularly scheduled thread...

**Eric** · 20th Dec 2010, 06:28 PM

24) you have good taste in... well, anything.

25) you find yourself resisting the temptation of having that extra piece of cake because it'll go straight to your thighs.

straal1972 · 21st Dec 2010, 07:51 AM

26) you watch gay porn exclusively.
27) you have a lot of opposite sex friends, whom you're not the least bit attracted to sexually.
