I always select moderately flaming-gay hair stylists, in my opinion, I think they have the absolute best eye for style, have such precision for flair, and come with built-in "tacky-detectors." Brother surrogates deems fitting, because to the gay men that I am friends with, I am like their surrogate little sister that they want to lock in a closet to torture, but still adore, when I razz and poke with my right-wing Christian shtuff. They're just as warped as I am, it works.

I don't feel sorry for sierraAZ... and she's not asking for pity either. And I understand just where she's coming from. I've lived most of my life just outside of Boston. And I've known gay men for well over 35 years. Some worked for my parents in retail. Some I met while at college. I worked with gays at a record store and while I was a waiter. And there are plenty of gays in the antiques world. I have two distant uncles that are gay. One came out of the closet, divorced his wife, then years later, decided he preferred the straight life and married another woman. According to his kids, he's very happy. I've known fewer lesbians. I've also been to several gay clubs in Boston, NYC and Oquonquit, ME.

As to gay men, of the ones that were out of the closet, I did enjoy their company, but I found them all to be very catty, gossipy and they talking in a very sleazy immature manner, to the point that I didn't feel comfortable socializing too much with them because I'm more conservative in my approach to dating. I don't even like to hang out with women that ogle men in public, it's just not me. And BTW these gay men spanned a wide age range. I remember one guy that was 20, with braces on that accentuated his teen looks and him talking about his older rich sugar daddy lover. Kind of icky. Or another gay man, a friend of a friend, that showed us his special bear hunter casual hookups website. That was also very disturbing to know about. And this guy was working for a state housing agency at the time.

Of course, there must be conservative acting gays, but they haven't made their preferences known to me . And I'm waiting to meet an out of the closet gay man that does act and behave conservatively, and not always leering at other men, gay or straight.

So is that why you have a Richard Simmon's afro? Hmmm that makes total sense. Good for you.

gays are my friends. they are all of the good variety.

if they were of the bitchy, evil, mean spirited variety, they would not be my friend. gay straight, male female, or otherwise.

yall are making it seem like gays have the market on *****/mean cornered.\

get real people.

as for having a crush on them? no not on my friends. i dont cross those boundaries with any friends.

they are my friends for a reason.

This is a real generalization. Gay guys come in a wide variety, and most of us (more than 50%) are undetectable from straight boys. But, it is the flamboyant ones that are visible. If I said straight boys can be moody, rowdy, aggressive, lazy, have bad hygeine, are slobs, put you at risk for date-rape, that could be true, but not necessarily the norm.

I know a self-appointed minister who is openly gay and his partner also helps conduct the services. I attend his services whenever possible and we just grab-ass a lot when we see each other. He's a lot of fun. I met him through work. My ex thought I had the "hots" for him. I've also noticed that most of the men who work in bookstores are gay or put out that vibe. Is that true?
