How do you tell the world you are gay?

[hunky]

Do you like to show to everyone you´re gay? Like different clothes, the way you speak, gesture, look etc?
Or you just do not care about showing your sexual preferences?

I sometimes look at the boys in a different way to show them I am interested on them, but not to the whole world.

I just be myself..... that seems to be enough.

 

[SilverRRCloud]

Nope. I do not like to flaunt anything. Least of all my sexuality.

Yeah, I do not hesitate, when it comes to saying, what needs to be said. But nope, stuffing it down any0's throat is plain wrong. Joeslifeyork said best...

My sexuality does not define me. I'm just me, and if anyone asks about my personal life, then I tell them I am gay.

 

[looseliam]

Even though I tend to keep it low-key, I have a few friends who insist on telling everyone we meet that I'm gay. I'm not embarrassed or anything, it just irks me that I am not the one to tell.

*sigh* Oh, well.

Classic gay accent. Slightly fluttery hands. Good grooming. Nice clothes, creatively-matched accessories. A little old lady to travel with (I never see straight guys hanging out with their Grandmothers, do you?)

I used to be a little more outrageous, but my temp agency has a dress code, so nothing flashy or out-of-the-ordinary.

I dont really act gay... effeminate i guess i mean, and im really mainstream in the way i dress

I do know that sometimes as Im walking down the street on mass ave ocasionally a guy will see where my eyes are and look down to make sure that his fly isnt unzipped

so i guess the most obvious way for me is that i crotch watch as i walk to make my day pass more quickly

Oddly enough, most of them smile and blush a bit when they realize the score, hehehe ... I guess they just take it as a compliment

very very few act put out or offended

Having the Gay Pride Rainbow tattooed on one cheek of my ass and the statement "This Space For Rent" on the other usually gets the message across.

I am glad there are people like Joe.

I am glad there are people like Liam.

I am glad there are people like Mark.

I am glad there are people like Robert~Marlénè.

The gay community needs to embrace our diversity. We need all types. That's a good thing.

 

[Andreus]

well im glad there are people like you lube

you are part of that same diversity

I am an exotic kind of guy, and I have been embraced by the gay community for my looks, but when people find out i have a brain attatched, they dont quite know what to do with me...

its cool though, to go to a gay club or restaurant and just look around. I am just one of many flavors. gay comes in all shapes and packages.

its really very cool

 

[RationalLunacy]

There is nothing stereotypical about me.

 

[hotdog1846]

I dunno ... a few people, here and there, have perceived me as gay, off and on, since I was probably 12 or 13. I don't know what I do to tip them off, nor do I really care. I just do what I do, wear what I want to wear (and I'm a rather conservative dresser, nothing flashy or particularly trendy). and go about things normally.

I never see straight guys hanging out with their Grandmothers, do you?)

Hey, are you calling me gay?

I don't do anything specific to let the world know I'm gay. But I'm well groomed, gentle, soft-spoken, sensitive and I talk with my hands so I think most people just assume. But I also have a kid and a girlfriend and I'm not especially queeny (unless I'm talking about style or decorating ) so I guess I'm a pretty confusing case for other people. Basically, I just act like myself and don't try to hide anything unless it's a matter of safety. I know who I am and that's good enough.

Andreus,

It may or may not be obvious from the timestamps on my previous post, but.... I was replying to all the previous posts; your post and GL247's post were being composed at the same time as mine, so I hadn't seen them. If I had seen them, I'd've added your names to the "I'm happy that..." post.

Just to be clear: my post was not a reaction to anything you or GL247 had said; I hadn't seen your posts when I was composing mine. Looking at it now, it does sorta look like a reaction (based on order) but your guys' posts hadn't shown up yet when I was composing.

I need to learn to write faster!

you do realize that I consider you a sweetheart right?

you dont need to explain yourself in any way...lol. If I am responding to a post I use the quote function. If I am responding to the thread thus far, then I just slip a post in wherever it winds up.

I didn't read any malice or the slightest ill will in any words you wrote here.

I just wanted you to know you are as valuable a gay man as any of us are.

smooches !!!
