gaydar

I'm straight and have a reasonably well-tuned gaydar for gay men, whether they look or act femme or not, as long as I have the chance to interact with them for a few moments. I've found that gay men respond to me as a woman in a completely different way, generally, than straight men do. The gay guys I'm acquainted with have a way of looking right through you without the same sort of check-out appraisal technique straight ones employ. It's almost unconscious on their part, but it's an absence of interest on a very basic level that gives them away every time.

I'm far less well able to identify gay women or bisexual people of either gender. And I mostly don't care about identifying anyone one way or the other, now that I think about it. What matters far more to me is whether someone is kind. Or intelligent. Or caring. Or funny.

Everyone I told was like "Wha!?"

so he still knows his own sexuaility

lol I normally assume everyone's gay...lol
I like to think I can tell if someone's gay...but id like to think everyone was gay.

The times I have thought people were gay, were.

My old boss at this resturaunt I worked at last year, I knew he was gay from the second I met him. Just imagine a fatter, gayer version of Jack from Will and Grace (TV show). It was obvious, but he was the coolest guy. He'd come out and puff doobs all the time with us after work and at work. He didn't care.

Another co-worker I thought was gay, but then he told me had a wife, and a few kids, so I thought maybe he was just always chipper. A few months later some ugliness happened with someone fidning out he was gay, and some rumours were spread around. He then told me he was gay after explaining the current situation, so it turns out I was right! :p

I can usually tell when someone's gay (men and women) but sometimes, it's really hard to tell. I've met people that I thought they SHOULD be gay. You know...there are some friggin manly women or sissy men out there.

yea i purchaced a gaydar once but it never worked for me it just kept going off.

I don't really care if someone is gay. I have feminine qualities, and I'm straight. But I was raised around mostly females so I see women as a people, not "a piece of ass" or whatever.:thumbsup: So it's cool.

No of course it doesn't matter to me either, but it should be important to know if you a gay man looking for another gay man or a girl looking for a girl. It would be embarassing kind of to not know. Knowledge is knowledge unless you're going to start hate crimes against gays then thats a problem.
Doesn't hurt to know. I like to know actually.
