Gay Guys' Eyes - Never fails

[Riverrick]

I've heard them referred to as little boys eyes.

Sometimes they look like they are on high alert.....even frightened.

It's not the eyes themselves, it's how he uses them. There's no such thing as gay eyes, but there's definitely a gay "gaze." Straight guys just don't make eye contact in quite the same way. It's just like any other body part - a guy's hands don't tell you anything until he starts flailing them around.

Aaron is absolutely right!

Generalizations about Gay Guys are just as inaccurate as they are about anybody else. Just like all the rest of the World's population, Gay Guys come in all shapes, sizes, colors, features, ages, etc., etc., etc. The only physical thing that might accurately indentify them is if they pop a boner looking at other Guys!

But, yes, there can be an indication in "The Gaze". Whenever we see something/someone that we find attractive, our eyes will generally become a bit wider/more open, and our pupils will even dilate (become bigger) a little more, all without our concious knowledge. That is generally true for ALL people.

With individuals, we each have our own unconcious "tells", too. Raising an eyebrow, a slight smile, or showing the tip of our tongue, etc., etc., and the obvious holding a gaze that second, or two, longer than our cultural "norm". It's all part of our ways of signalling, "I like you!", even if we aren't aware of it.

When we pick that up from someone else, no matter what their sex, it's almost an automatic "sense" of attraction from them. And when it's from another guy ... well ...

Keep smilin'!!

Alabama, you said put into words exactly what I meant. Thanks. And HotDude, yes, sometimes it's part to the face as whole

Wow, being able to figure one's sexual orientation just by looking at their eyes? That's crazy! Even crazier is that many people can look at my eyes and tell of which race I am; they see my eyes and go: "Wow, that guy is so Asian." It's crazy, I tell you!

BLAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


Sorry if that's inappropriate.

maybe this is more specific for closeted gays, but one thing i notice is sometimes they glance at you and then look away really quick, and then repeat the same thing seconds later, as if saying "damn he hot.....but i dont wanna look gay!"

when guys look at me in that way, my gaydar just acts up
i know because i do that as well.

My old boss swore up and down that she could tell whether or not a relationship would last by comparing the noses of the two people. If they were similar, they were a great match. If not, it'd never work.

She was right about half the time.

>>>maybe this is more specific for closeted gays, but one thing i notice is sometimes they glance at you and then look away really quick, and then repeat the same thing seconds later, as if saying "damn he hot.....but i dont wanna look gay!"

I do this. But I do it to everybody. I've got an aversion to looking people in the face - be they straight, gay, male, female, whatever.

I read an article recently - having to do with some aspects of this subject ( I will have to see if I can find it again ...). It was very interesting.

I don't think that it's a physical thing - and you have to be careful about making generalizations about physical attributes, etc.

In the article, the point was made that many times, straight guys - have this "alpha male" - animal instinct - or whatever you want to call it - to not hold someone's gaze very long - because it's a confrontational kind of thing. Gay men, on the other hand, will hold your gaze, many times and look you right in the eye - because they aren't threatened (at least not all the time) by the same issues that straight guys seem to have with other guys. (I hope that this all makes some kind of sense!) Anyway, that's the way it was explained in the article ... your experience may be different from this ... I just thought that this evaluation was interesting and made some sense! It's one explanation that might deserve some consideration the next time you look over at a "cute guy!" If he can hold your gaze for more than a few seconds ...... ? ..... ! Hmmmmm .... ! Who knows?
Each person is different, though - so just keep that in mind. Non-verbal communication is a whole "art" unto itself! Very interesting! !!!

...but they're all kind of chubby, so I guess it doesn't mean much...

So if a guy is chubby, he is worthless.
Thanks buddy.

Given gays come in all shapes and sizes, eyes included, and that eye shape isn't ethnically consistent, etc., etc., this thread sounds like trolling around to me.

 

[dfwjacker]

Anyone else think this line of thinking is bull shit?

Granted some openly gay men try to over do the sex appeal crap and try to mimic the way women act when they are trying to be cute. Which happens to include a lot of eye related flirtation. I attribute this more to gay mens misguided beliefs about what other men find sexy, rather than any genetic link to this behavior.

Good point!

 

[wildhog]

every man in a straight bar that's had a couple drinks must be gay.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA

 

[wildhog]

Here is what I'm talking about:



Do you see it too?

Dude, I do not see what you are seeing. These eyes ALL look nice but there was not an indication they belong to homosexuals.

 

[BlueLantern]

Usually the behavior is more important to me. And in fact the eyes are important, but only if you know what they are looking. Smiles are another big factor

 

[Spensed]

^
That's funny.

hey... i dont remember posting my face pic online!!^^.......j/k

 

[hotlatinchulo348]

there are no genetics for homosexuality, it would have been found by now.

All those eyes in those pictures look feminine. Is that what you are talking about? Is it possible that wearing contacts can make that appearance?

Actually, haven't they found or almost found the gay gene? I feel like I heard that somewhere.... I don't know for sure though! Don't beat me for saying it! Lol

It's believed to be environmental. Not as a learned behavior, but something to do with hormones in the womb or something. There very well could be a correlation between physical eye structure and sexuality if testosterone affects eye development, much like how they say the length of a gay man's ring finger is likely to be shorter than his index finger, and the opposite for straight men. Also there's the finding that gay men are a little more likely to have a counter-clockwise hair swirl. And then there's the supposed probability that with each older brother, a guy is some percentage more likely to be gay.

These methods are of course not a way to determine someone's sexuality at all, it's probably just a little more common in gay men than straight men based on a really small number of people studied. After all, I have the 'straight' clockwise hair swirl, my ring finger is longer than my index, and I have no older brothers.

Dude, sorry to blow your theory out the water but I have light hazel eyes that are very dry ( I know this becuase I struggle with most brands of contact lenses drying out)

 

[Ares]

What about twins where one is gay and one is straight?
