Putting down “most gay men” is not an endearing opening. Especially if it’s “I’m not X, like most gay men.” Where X is some negative stereotype. Even more so when that applies to a very small minority of gay men. What is wrong with you?
Getting a word in edgewise

Woemn do this too. It blows
What brought this on?
Enh, some jerk online who chatted me up. Or tried to.
Bloody hell…
90% of the “guys online” are fucking jerks.
Just like all those ass clods with Livejournals.
God I hate LJ.

A gay man put in his journal fairly recently, “I don’t trust most gay men” and went on to describe what horrible, scheming people they are.
My response was that he needs to get past that self-loathing. I mean, really, people.
as a general rule, most gay men who complain about “most gay men” are perpetually single and yet complain about being single.
Dear Gawd, is that ever true…
Unlike most gay men, I don’t have a 7.5″ dick, a closet full of Prada shoes, various volunteering committments, and a rehearsal on Sunday with the local gay men’s chorus.
Hmmm, which of those were supposed to be positive traits and which were supposed to be negative? 😉
My sense of satire is so advanced that it should work in any interpretation.
Essentially I wanted to tease you a bit and to remind you that whatever you project relates to what you get back. If you are playful and respectful you’ll find chatterboxes like that. If you are snarky you’ll get the bitter ones.
A ‘gay’ man must always immediately swear off drama, femininity, and insecurity in any online profile.
don’t forget promiscuity
what bothers me is “straight looking” or “straight acting”.
There’s nothing straight acting about getting a cock slammed in your butt.
Unless it’s a silicone cock, which many, many straight bois enjoy immensely.
true. there are more butt-friendly straight boys. but you get my point. =)
some people need a reality check and not hung up and what a gay man is supposed to be or not be like…just be who you are…
A startling statistic I came across some years ago is that up to 50% of all gay guys – is approximately half of them.
But in all seriousness, those who claim to be straight acting and looking have two rather recalcitrant issues with which to contend:
As previously stated, rendering one’s self silly with lust for another of the same sex precludes straight acting.
And as so much of our culture’s fashion sense is derived from and/or in harmony with gay sensibilities (being that the margin of variability within this group is very large to infinite), unless you go around dressed in hip waders and a bee keeper’s suit, you are gay looking. And seeing as a troll such as J. Edgar Hoover was gay and the glamorous Dennis Rodman (apparently) isn’t, we are left with very little upon which to predicate such notions of gay and striaght acting/looking. So congratulations, here’s your knitted scarf and ruby slippers. Go knock ’em out, girlfriend.
I’d comment, but I’m not witty and insightful…like most gay men. 😉
