Do you have “gaydar”?
With the long breaks I have between my classes, I’m generally bored out of my mind. Since I go to a university, there are ALWAYS a plethora of people…some more interesting than others. During these breaks of mine, my friends and I normally check out the guys and guess as to which one is “gay”…and yeah…I’ll be honest, I have none of these dar talents whatsoever (so for the most part I just enjoy the view)
My friend who happens to be bi always tells me that she has the ability to detect gay guys better than anyone else, and feels the need to brag about it. Which by the way in my opinion, is not really something you should brag about since it’s not actually a talent. Well she just so happened to have a major liking towards this fella in our Ethnobotany Lab. Now, this guy was the epitome of gay. He’s beyond feminine, has sadlier a girlier voice than I do, and once made the statement “it’s always better pierced” as he showed me his tongue ring.
With the inability to make a good guess at who could possibly be gay, I was willing to make a bet on this one. Sadly, she didn’t like my judgement (since she knows better *cough*) and told him that she liked him. (In the most complicated of ways I might add) She texted him in the Chinese I translated for her “wo xi huan ni” meaning I like you. He asked what it meant, and she told him to google translate it. He texted back “wo bu xi huan hai ci” which means I don’t like sea. (Which people, never use google translate to translate English into another language. It obviously cannot be trusted” After trying out a few other languages, my friend translated his text into “I don’t like girls.”
To her dismay, it turned out he’s a gay man with a boyfriend. *dusts off shoulder* Mhmm, just as I suspected. Any man that enjoys tongue piercings and the movie Rent, cannot be completely straight.
So are you like me? Can you only detect the gays if they’re obviously gay? Or do you have the gift of gaydar?

nope. I had a close friend who was gay when i met him. And somehow I didn’t realize it., and I apparently led him on by talking to him on the phone and shit.. I was just bored waiting for the bus, and he happened to be more available and less annoying that my GF at the time lol.
And NYC dudes look like chicks, so its hard to tell who’s gay and who’s not. For chicks, oddly I can tell by their facial structure, and usually by their choice of dressing and mannerisms.

I have. And it’s so freaking accurate, people around me are abusing it by asking me every single guy I see if they’re gay.

Well I guess you’ll be able to sense it if you hang out with more gays? I have a lot of gay friends so maybe that’s why I can tell who is gay and who is not easily. And no worries your chinese are correct. =)
