why do ppl call gay individual gays? When did gay become a noun?

But its hard to tell sometimes, I know a few ppl who I thought were gay but they turned out to be straight. And I'm not the only one who thought they were gay. There are also gay guys who I thought were straight.

But i'm straight so, that could be why i have no idea who's gay or who isn't.

Sure, PaNsyBoy8, sure you are. 🙂

Probably because English is a living language, and "gay" has become an acceptable noun over the past 25 years or so.
 
Some gays use certain accessories to their clothing to identify with one another.
No BS either.


If you are straight and wearing one, a gay guy will let you know too! 🙂

It isn't too hard for straight people to pick out the majority of gay people they come across on a daily basis so why would it be hard for another gay?

What, you don't get the newsletter? 😛
Although I do recall hearing in the 80s that supposedly if a guy had just his right ear pierced, it meant he was gay. Of course, this was in junior high, when people said a lot of stupid things (like Milli Vanilli rocks!)

That is true to some degree. Alot of gay guys/girls will wear rainbow colored necklaces, bracelets, rings, etc..etc..
It is almost a sure fire sign that they support gays or are gay themselves.
 
It does not concern me whether someone is gay or not if you don't have a relationship with them. PUT IT THIS WAY.. It's none of your business. :thumbsdown:

Werd...

Str8 guy - "I don't know what it is with this beer. Everytime I drink it, my a$$ hurts like hell in the morning.

Gay friend - *smirks*
 
If you want to know if a guy is gay or not....ask him for a blowjob. If he says OK, chances are he's gay.

Damn, must have really pissed him off to make him post.

My gaydar is set off pretty regularly. I think for any gays that are close to the center of the spectrum (completely, manly straight on one end, flaming homo on the other end) then gaydar may not be accurate, but anywhere away from the center it's not too hard to tell. False positives are common though with straight guys who aren't concerned about projecting a straight vibe, or are in theatre.
