Am I broadcasting the wrong signal or what?

from JoeUser Forums
Ok... now, get this... I have been asked this question, not once, not twice... but Six times...

By one of my best friends.
By my sister.
By my niece.
By my step-father.
By one of my other best friends.
And then (the one that "takes the cake"), My mother...


Now, what is this question?

"Are you gay?"


Irk!? Now, I have nothing against gays,etc... But... I mean, c'mon... my mom! If anyone would know the answer to that question, it would be her...

I'm just sitting here thinking about that and i just shake my head...


Anyway... (as far as i know) I'm not...


Best Regards, Lucas

Are you gay?

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Yes, but are you a Furry?

No...


Only as far as you know though right.

lol.

Someone asks you if you're gay and you didn't ask them why they asked you that? Is it because you already know the answer?

Ehh?

I've checked, (definantly after the question), and I don't 'feel' gay...

Never thought about that... I just was in shock... I mean I've known both of my friends for 11 years +, and such... I mean... The question threw me completely off balance...

don't 'feel' gay...


How do you know what being gay "feels" like? You need to know how something feels in order to able to say you dont feel it.
Are you saying you felt gay before and now you dont?

Are you male or female?

Wow. That's a lot of people to be asking you the same question. You must really be putting out some strong vibes. If I met you in person, I'd be able to tell...I have a really good 'gaydar'.

No, really? :S Well, we'll just have to arrange that... next time i can get over your way...

Thinking more about it now.. I think it's cause i am pretty "anti-social".... (perhaps)

"Gaydar" .... hmmm, does that work through computers? (Beep, beep, beep, beep!!!!)

Are you GIRLY?

Do you talk with your hands? Do you emote in public? Do you prefer Trading Spaces to Pimp my Ride?

Well, I can't speak for ElindelWolf, but I am! Mind you, I like to think that I'm not so much 'A Furry' as 'THE Furry' ...

The way you probably think, no, am i compassionate...do i listen,etc.. yeah... but not "feminine"...

What? What? and What? Have no clue what those shows are, or the term emote....

If this is a round about way of saying you're not getting laid then no it doesn't mean you're gay. It may mean you're boring, ugly or lame but it dont mean your gay.

It may not be any mannerisms you're displaying, it may just be because you haven't had any serious relationships yet.

I think generally when someone reaches their late teens/early twenties without having a serious relationship or dating, many people assume it's because they're gay.

No, I'm not really into the "lets get to bed in 5 minutes" scheme... Call it chivalry, call it stupidity... what ever you like...

That was something i thought about as well

Of course you're a turd-burglar, Lucas, you just don't want to admit it.


Ehh? If this means what i think it means.........

I remember an article you posted not long ago in which you said you thought you "might" be gay, and that you were "considering the possibility."


Hmmm? *thinks* I don't remember that article... I do remember that the conversation got around to that point...


If you can consider having sex with another male and the idea doesn't totally repulse you...guess what? You're a queer, hun, or at the very least, bisexual. If you were hetero the very notion of it would disgust you.


Warning: Here comes some brutal truth.


Really?! I would've never thought it would come....

Another possibility is that you are so lonely, so desirous of fitting in somewhere, anywhere, that yeah, you'd take it up the butt just to be part of some social group.


Ehhh...I don't think i'd be that desperate....

May I suggest a religious cult instead?


Hmmm...no thanks... I've been well advised against that, consdiering i once lived in an area that partook in those dealings... *cough* Gold Hill *cough*

I'd call it someone who doesn't want to go to bed in 5 minutes. Getting laid doesn't neccessarily infer being easy. Although i gotta say its just a little odd that some guy whose getting any doesn't seem to want any?

How old are you? teens/20's?

Just tell them all the truth, Lucas. Tell them you're not gay but your boyfriend is. j/k

But to answer your question "Am I broadcasting the wrong signal or what?", I don't think you are, but I do think you are very curious. Maybe you're dying for any kind of a physical relationship. I don't know. Only you know exactly how you feel. If you want to pursue a gay relationship then I say go ahead. You don't need JU's permission.

WHat does that have to do with anything Tova? Im not girly - far from it, I talk with my hands cause im italian, and I LOVE pimp my ride.

Lucas... if your thinking about it, then maybe you are, well at least bisexual maybe, but even if your not.. why put a label on yourself? If your interested in guys or girls.. what matters more is who you fall in love with which I believe can either be a man or woman.

Your only young. Enjoy your life whoever it is with.

Shesh, that was sarcastic humor. Isn't every conversation that involves TRADING SPACES funny?

Considering all the articles on JU about stereotyping and racism and grouping people together...pfft..thought it would be obvious.

Next time I'll be sure to give my sarcastic humor plenty of smileys.

Well, he first said he was 24 and had a PhD. Then he said he was 24 without a PhD. Then we found out that he's actually 18 and he lives at home with his mom and has some medical issues.

I'm more inclined to think that he's 18 and naieve. Hasn't had many relationships - ones where the girl knew that she was his girlfriend, anyway - and is a bit if a shut in due to his condition.

Just my 2 cents worth.

Ehh, I just am that way... I'm not the 'stereotypical' male... Call it honor, or stupidity if you like...

18, 3-ish months till i'm 19

Your only young. Enjoy your life whoever it is with.


Thanks PB, glad yer feeling better btw, still confined, so i couldn't post a 'get better' comment on any thread of yours... and i didn't see you on IM...

Could someone tell me what "Pimp my ride" is? I hace rabbit ears... so... i get about 3 channels... :S

18, yes...naieve, about certain things...yes...

Lucas--if you really wanna know, all you have to do is look at some porn (of both the straight and gay varieties) and see which scenes get your pee-pee hard


Don't talk 'bout mr. turtle.... (Long story bout when i was 4-5)

Pimp my ride is a tv show about taking a crappy car and secretly changing it in to a really pimped out vehicle.

Secretly meaning, they find a way to confiscate the vehicle, usually by trickery....so the owner is shocked when he goes to get it and its all pimped out.

I've only watched it once, so unless its changed, that is what its all about.
