    I seriously don't even know where to put this, so it's ending up here. Sorry if that's weird, but...is it weird that watching the show Mad Men is conforming my gayness? Not that I'm finding the women particularly attractive over the men. I just cannot stand the men.

    To be fair, most of the men in Mad Men are unequivocally assholes. I think that's something we can all agree upon regardless of sexuality lol.

    Lol, yes. But how can they ALL be such assholes? I really feel that the atmosphere is the same. And not that I hate men. But it's like I can't even sympathize with any of them and think every woman should just leave her husband. Which is how I am in real life. And also why I think it just makes my gay seem even stronger than I'd like to admit. This was probably a dumb conversation to start, but was a thought it my head. Hahahhaha.

    So instead, can we perhaps turn this thread into a conversation of shows and films that made them either realize they were gay or sparked a thought about it or something? That would be more interesting. Even songs!

    Just a question, but if this is about finding out you were gay/bi/pan/etc shouldn't it be in the orientation area?

    As for Mad Men, never seen it and don't plan on it.

    Pretty sure this belongs in a different forum is right. I clicked on it to see if a period piece like Mad Men is featuring trans people in an Era in which we weren't even knowledged to exist.

    When I clicked this, I thought it was about Mad Men somehow confirming you were trans, ha. Anyway, glad that this show helped you discover yourself.

    Well, it is called 'Mad Men', right, they warned you...

    I'd watch it, why not, after all it is set on the 20th century, and I'm mad about those days.
