"Just Be Yourself" i told him

[Danugh]

I have this friend he is gay and his boyfriend of 6 months has decided that is time to meet the parents.

So about 10 minutes ago he calls me freaking out about "What am i going to wear"

I was like guy, obvioulsy you arent going to wear a sweat shirt and shorts but at the same time you can't pretend to be someone you arent, just , "be yourself" i told him.

He didnt heed, instead he told me i didnt understand the gravity of the situation and opted to call another friend for fashion advice.

So what he is going to get a dressed up and fake who he really is just to impress the parents.


I dont know, i think he is getting all worked up over nothing.

[JakeBequette]

could it be???.........

Really? Glad I'm not the only one lol​

 

[Danugh]

You should take your own advice newboy.


Be yourself....Be gay....Don't be someone your not! (straight)

You can't be comparing project runway to sociatal standards. Its the norm to be a man and have a wife and children anything againt that is frowned upon.

Where sexuality is concerned in certain cultures one has to put on a facade of heterosexuality in order to live without harm.

I miss Peto....

lol

one sock puppet is as good as another

and newboy is a bit more amusing

Newboy...

arent you the guy who started a thread on how angry you are that someone figured out that you are gay?

maybe there is a way we can merge these two threads and you can just answer both of the issues on your own

 

[Danugh]

You should be yourself.....It most be hard to play games all day long.


;

Its good exercise.

If that were true then Rosa Parks would never have claimed her seat

she lived to a ripe old age and all she did was refuse to consider herself a second class citizen and not give up her seat to a very rude man.

her courage inspired a nation to make many many changes

anything ios posible if you just live an honest life

I take hits all the time from gay people for being a muslim and from muslims for being gay

do you think i would ever deny either of those identities to either group?

and who do you think has a better life because of it?

that would be little old me

Life aint about being popular... its about being free and happy

Sometimes it's important to wear nice clothes You only have 1 shot at a first impression.

Nice.^

Now newboy12 take everyone's advice and do something with it.
You tell someone else to "be yourself" yet you don't take or follow your own advice.
Are you one of those do as I say not as I do people?
We have enough of those in the world.

JUB is looking for free lance writers with a great imagination - you should go for it.

Newboy, I can't remember if you've mentioned it before, but where do you live?

 

[DevinO]

Newboy12, are you saying your friend is putting up a facade? So you can put up a facade but other people can't?

 

[Danugh]

^ You are trying to be smart, but if you were, you would realize that attire and sexuality are 2 different things as i said before "You can't be comparing project runway to sociatal standards".

Anyways my friends dilemma is solved as he finally commited to an outfit, i just hope he knows that its not the outfit that makes the man.

 

[Kulindahr]

You should have told him to be clothes-neutral -- like, don't wear any.

 

[justsimon]

But the shoes do make the man.
