Hellloo. So I have come to the conclusion that I am bi. But I wanna know if I am more gay actin or straight. Thank you From my childhood: -loved little mermaid, dancing, sleeping beauty, monsters inc, Aladin -sometimes wore heels and danced for my family as fun of coarse - in camp, always wanted to me with the girls (probably because my sister and cousin was there) -surrounded by very feminine atmosphere -age 6-9, I used to dress up like a girl, well not really and act like a girl with my sister -had both male and female friends in school - liked dolls (well I don't remember but I remember always wanting to undress th To see what their boobs looked like) -liked cars, action figures and teddy bears Now: Favorite movie is white chicks and grown ups Favorite shows are everybody loves Raymond, desperate housewives, yes dear, dancing withthe stars , masterchef and charmed Favorite color is green Not into fashion at all. Don't care about my appearance For some reason, I always act like a women in my fantasies, maybe it's because I feel like they are more cool Not a big madonna or Cher fan at all Listen to all types of music (whatever sounds good) I am calm, worry free, energetic, happy. Sometimes I can be a little dramatic I'm not into sports except swimming Love old people especially grandmothers Gossiping is fun well only with stupid stuff I am very nosy, busybody I love ballroom dancing I am close with my grandpa, grandma , and great grandma I am very loud - my voice is a little high pitched but many others are as well When I was young I used to walk weird, but not i grew out of it. I don't like very sassy girls- mos of my friends who are girls are tom boys. I have several Male friends as well
Why is it important? It's impossible to assess aspects of your personality without knowing you. It just perpetuates stereotypes to assign "this is gay" and "this is a straight thing."
I agree. All of these traits could describe a completely straight or completely gay person, or anywhere in between, obviously. I think people have a tendancy to attribute certain trait as gay when it's a guy, when really it's just human. (again, same goes for other genders, but you take my point). (most) traits and behaviours such as these are completely separate from sexuality and from what you appear to be imo.
Yeah, I guess I don't really relate to the question. I'm pretty gay--and totally out so I don't hold it back at all. So I guess in that sense I'm "gay acting." On the other hand, people generally seem surprised when it first comes up so I guess in their minds I'm "straight acting."
Same views as the other people... "Gay-acting" and "straight-acting" don't exist; they're just assigning gender stereotypes (and other stereotypes, too) for the most part...
There is no strict rule for defining 'gay-acting' and 'straight-acting'. If you were looking for whether others may think that you act more gay or more straight, I can't generalise it. It depends on the person, but a general unspoken rule is stereotypes. Peeople who know little about the LGBT community tend to classify gay and straight by stereotypes.
Most of these things don't really matter and the things you have listed can be enjoyed by anyone regardless of their sexuality, anyway on to the important matter CHER IS THE BEST! ❤️
Don't think that you can read a list of facts like that and say "yes, you're gay". The teller is if you find a guy and think he is stimulating you (for example). I know a lot of people who like to sing on singstar, have lots of female friends, watch desperate housewives etc and dress very camp, yet they are straight.
I think these are just gender stereotypes, which is not related to sexuality. I mean, you never see "straight acting/lesbian acting" when applying it to women, because women are allowed to be feminine acting and masculine acting regardless of sexuality. I think the same should apply to men too, we just haven't gotten there yet, sadly. So even if you lean toward being masculine/feminine, it shouldn't define your sexuality (Or seeing as you are bi, your gender preference).
