Sooner OR later I know that someone is going to question me about my sexuality because I am NOT your typical anything. I've been told in the past by folks that they can tell something is up with me, but they can't put their finger on what it is...I keep telling you guys that we GAY men and women are THE MOST popular persons on the planet! No matter how many times homosexual issues come up, folks still pretend like it is a shock to meet persons that are gay. So given the notion that straight folks are CONSTANTLY trying to get into our bedrooms, I been wondering, what clever response you give to persons that you DON'T want to know about your sexuality...You know that response that keeps your business private, but doesn't give anything away? YEP THAT! I normally would ask if the persons asking if they are interested OR know of someone who is so...¿HOW DO YOU RESPOND TO THE SEXUALITY QUESTION?
None of your business...
ReplyDeleteCan't argue with you there Mr. Gaytekeeper. Gay men & women are popular. Most us straight folks want to know what y'all get up to. You are a very interesting phenom..
ReplyDeleteFOR VARIOUS REASONS WHICH I'M NOT AT LIBERTY TO DIVULGE RIGHT NOW....
ReplyDeleteBut next time someone asks, just spill. Don't be so greedy with info. Hau!? Andy Pants!
ReplyDeleteResponse 1-Why, are you interested?
ReplyDeleteResponse 2(if it's a guy)-I never had a guy ask me that before are you gay?
Response 3(if it's a female)-Why do you want to know you think you're my type?
"You're not the first to ask me that, I wonder why" and I smile. Then they apologize and say they didn't mean to say that I looked gay or anything, I accept the apologies, and they leave with no answer.
ReplyDeleteCo-workers are famous for asking me this question, my response:
ReplyDelete" How would that relate to my work?"
" Would it really matter?"
" I don't have a sexual preference, I'm asexual."
" No, I'm not a queen, my father was the queen "I'm just a princess." This is my reply to gay people that ask me if I'm gay.
®‡ø - IS THAT YOUR FINAL ANSWER?
ReplyDeleteMISS SHALLOTTE - I AM AN INTERESTING PHENOM?
ANONYMOUS - LOVE THOSE RESPONSES!
EDUARDO - I THINK THAT MIGHT JUST WORK...
Uummm... let me think about it.... will get back to you on that one.
ReplyDeleteyou have the best pictures! Thank you! Liebe Grüße Björn
ReplyDeleteCHET - LOVE THOSE RESPONSES!
ReplyDeleteMISS SHALLOTTE - I WILL BE HERE...
BJORNS - I TRY...
After extensive investigations by the Commission of Inquiry into the statement attributed to Miss Shallotte, it is the finding of this Commission that there was a typing error during the posting of that statement.
ReplyDeleteThe Commission therefore finds Miss Shallotte NOT GUILTY.
No
ReplyDeleteThe attitude is MYOB. Also people don't normally ask are you gay?
The questions are: Do you have a girlfriend? Do you want kids? Why don't you have a girlfriend?
No I don't, Yes I want kids, Interesting question - why do you ask? Oh OK - interesting .
I actually admire the ones that come out and ask bluntly but still "What does my sexuality have to do with you? Aren't we @ work? Do people typically have sex here?"
Unless it is a complete teaching moment then it is always "You're a little to old for me to school you about the birds and bees."
ReplyDeleterespond with the truth, if you want to live WHOLEY then the truth is the only way.
ReplyDeleteI don't usually hide it but if I don't feel like dealing with the discussions or questions, I would probably respond with a *raised eyebrow and a "why are you asking" and follow up appropriately after that.
ReplyDelete®‡ø - I LOVE THE LAST LINE!
ReplyDeleteTHE WALKING MAN - L(O)L!
TREY - I FEEL YOU ON THAT...
FROMETOMI - I THINK I CAN FOLLOW YOUR LEAD..
Oh my sweet christ balls I would never utter such a response.
ReplyDeleteI tell them in explicit, embellished, graphic glistening detail everything they never wanted to know about the act of gay sex especially as it pertains to me.
People don't usually ask twice.
COGENT ASCENDING - YOU ARE ARE RIGHT ABOUT THAT...
ReplyDeleteNever had it asked directly; however, I get the three covert detective questions from women with interest:
ReplyDelete1. age
2. ever married
3. any children
I'm honest on questions 1 and 2, but on 3 I respond, " I have four baby mamas." That quickly clears my space from any unwanted FISH.
AUSFAHRT - I LOVE THE FOUR BABY MAMAS LINE!
ReplyDeleteNow, I can really only tell it as it is. I wouldn't denigrate my marriage to Stan by lying, but I am in a position to do so with little consequence.
ReplyDeleteMany of us are not so fortunate. I guess in that case the best idea is to answer them with a question or be antagonistic in a way that would upset them. Either would probably get them to leave you alone, which is the intended effect.
KYLE - I RATHER THEY LEAVE ME ALONE...
ReplyDeleteI would ask why you want to know, and I really don't care if they know, but since we are asking questions, I feel I can ask the reason behind theirs.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was coming out to a female friend, I asked, what if I told you I am interested in an alternative lifestyle? and her reply? She just rolled her eyes and said:
ReplyDelete"Would it change the price of bread?"
I can only recall being asked the question once in my adult life and it was by a coworker. She presented the question as a malicious joke. When I just stared directly into her eyes with saying a word. If looks could killed she'd be dead and her husband would be in at my place in MY bed. Since she didn't get answer she laughed it off and walked away. She later came back and apologized.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I find it rude for straight folks to ask the question and I find it even more rude to gay folks to tell straight folks who other gay folks are......IMO.
Let's all mind our own damn business!
