Do you have a STEREOTYPICALLY GAY JOB?

[Esquire0399]

If you ever feel like convincing anyone you're straight, go into engineering. They might just think you're a straight virgin too though.

Engineering is like theater for straight guys.

Haha, nah I'd rather just gay up the field a little bit. Sounds like fun. Who said the roads I design can't be dusted in glitter and traveled primarily by Gaga-cycles? Fuck whoever did.

I work in the media which many people don't think of as stereotypical but there are many gays in the media, both behind the scenes and in front of the cameras.

 

[geloge]

I don't think so, for the moment but this summer I'll have to look for a new work.

 

[Esquire0399]

^lol, This is all true for me as well.

My store even plays the loud thumpa-thumpa music that tickles all the gay boys' fancy.

That's what finally gave me away as one of the boys at my job. I was on the floor the other day, folding clothes and ignoring customers as usual, and they played this shit over the store's sound system:



lol Let's just say, I went bananas.

Grrr... I WISH my job would play some Gaga. All I get is super duper hipster alternative that ranges from awesome to absolute crap, with some Robyn and Kanye thrown in for good measure.

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

Omg I love you for this.

Student, going to be a science/math teacher though. I don't think that's too stereotypically gay, though.

 

[NineOfClubs]

In the past, yes.

I've worked in the beauty industry, restaurants and a gay bar.

Now, not at all.

Drive a transit bus.

Interior Design. not Residental. i work for a furniture manufacturer. i was the only guy in my class at college.

 

[operafan]

Librarian -- sorta gay

 

[FirePhoenix]

I work at a hardware store. bunch of hot, sweaty, buff guys carrying bags and loading hay with their muscles popping out of their shirts. Nope not gay at all.

 

[rotary]

I'm a male nurse! Does that count???

RN here too. I think people perceive the profession as more stereotypically gay than it actually is. The vast majority of men who are nurses are straight.

 

[PhoenixRising]

Hospital lab technologist. While becoming increasingly more female dominated, its still not a stereotypical gay job.

Of course, it may have more to do with the fact that few people know we even exist (and this includes other hospital workers)!

Service Tech for the telephone company - not a gay job.

 

[honooryuu]

im a photo tech for walgreens, so not stereotypically gay

 

[celtboy]

Former Retail manager for a record store. Gayish.

Former Catholic Church pipe organist/choir director. Way gay!

Same here...so my answer would be "sort of".

At one point out of staff of around 30, we had 7 gay guys.

Mechanic. Man oh man, it does not get more str8 than that. I was outed the first day there!

 

[SLOPPYSECONDS]

methinks it still come withs da > read ya manual of what expect a bes born inta any century past 10000 years

 

[Yooper]

Retail. Gay-ish.

Depends on what I'm doing that day. My official position is pretty non-gay (working on the receiving dock) throwing huge boxes of stuff around, moving pallets of freight around, not really gay.

However, some days I do other stuff. Dressing the mannequins in the Intimates department was a decidedly UBER-Gay moment. I got to make sure her hair matched the bras and panties!

You decide if I've got a Gay job.
