Just because people are looking at you , it does'nt mean they think you look good!

i take that as read…

I am a openly gay, live in Wales and I am not camp in the slightest . I know a few other gay people and only one is slightly camp. As for the gaydar theory, I personally am crap at working out if someones gay/straight but I think its different for everyone.

Do you live in a village?

 

[IJCymru]

lol I am not the only gay in the Village. And no I live in a town which is only about ten minutes from the border so its pretty much England.

The 10% is based on men that don't identify as 100% heterosexual and includes the estimated figure for those in the closet as far as I know.

As for gaydar, mine is pretty good when it comes to men, but with girls, I'm fairly hopeless unless they are very obvious.

There's no way ten percent of men are gay. That's just ridiculous and indicates how big a dream world these people live in.

The lesbian was pretty obvious and said she would have been more forward if her girlfriend wasn't next to her (to be fair, American girls can't resist the sound of a British voice

Bit confused as to why a lezza would chat a bloke up Will

More like she/they was/were rosy-both-ways and fancied you in the middle

I always thought my gaydar was good .. until we went to Cyprus last year. There were 2 women in their 60's and I just assumed they were friends/sisters. Until they 'came out' over a game of bingo and were then all lovey-dovey and touchy. I felt a bit sick.

I would count myself as a hetero-bloke, never fancied getting it on with a chap, but you can tell when some fella might be attractive to women...
I've had blokes try to chat me up on occasion... one American bloke in particular... as soon as I mentioned the missus, he headed for the hills. I was a nurse many years ago (I was cr@p at it, so I left) and most peeps (male and female) just assume you are gay in that job anyway... but I come from a long line of blokes in nursing... father, uncles, etc....

It's weird tho, with older people I find it's so much easier to assume they are straight, if two little grannies are walking down the road arm in arm, I just assume they are friends or sisters, if they were in they 30's, I'd probably think they were gay (well, obviously other factors come into it as well, apart from being 30 and walking holding hands, but there is definitely some age stereotyping going on for me...)

being gay was a no no a few decades ago, so it may be that older couples were/are "in the closet", whereas those of us that grew up in more liberated times have no such hang-ups about it. (i'm not gay or owt )

 

[punkypossum]

It's still a no-no for a lot of people now!!!

(i'm not gay or owt )

I should think not - there's none of that sort of thing north of Watford.

Kaboom-tish, How many times have you heard that over the last couple of years

My gaydar is broken. People I am sure are gay are more hetero than me (if that's possible) and people I thought were totally Ross Kemp turned out to be total Dick Emery.

Who gives a sh1t anyway?
