I've noticed a lot of us are gay?

If so, that's cool! Cuz I'm gay too.

Who's all gay here? (Or bi?)

Honey, I'll never be the man that you mother was, OK?

A proper lady would never say.

But look for moustaches; they hide the stretch-marks.
(They are coming back into style). YAY!

How can you tell your room-mate is gay?
His thing tastes like s- - - -.

I'm here, I'm queer, and the christianists can just go fcuk themselves!

But some of the nicest people here are straight.

Im guessing, but I think that 80% of us are "Super Happy".....Bill in Az....

Depends on my mood--

A lot of the time I think of myself as "enchanted."

Wow . . .

Who woulda thunk it?

I don't know how "gay" came to refer to our community, but I sure wish we'd find another term to describe ourselves. "Homosexual" sounds much too clinical, and "gay" to many (most?) people today simply means lame or stupid.

 

[maytagbear]

There's a long-ish

history of "gay" as meaning "unconventional," particularly in the realm of sexuality, however, it was more like "overly friendly," or "loose."

There was the other meaning of gay as "lighthearted" or "whimsical." Grace Barron, in Evan S. Connell's "Mrs. Bridge" novel, asks India Bridge not to be "gay" when she is trying to discuss something real with India. In the film,(Mr. and Mrs. Bridge,) Grace Barron was played by Blythe Danner Paltrow, and India Bridge was played by Joanne Woodward Newman.

Gertrude Stein was one of the first to use the subtext meaning of "gay" as "same sex attraction" in her very tender and somewhat funny (if you can read it at all!) story "Miss Furr and Miss Skeene."

I wish the "younger generation" had chosen some other word to mean "unappealing" or "unfashionable," but oh, well.

I don't know anybody except people under 25...maybe 30 who uses gay in that context. Maybe those people should find another word to use!

Toggles, my beard doesn't hide stretch marks!! It just makes me darn sexy. Still wishing I could cultivate more front and back furr!!

 

[volvoguy87]

Straight.

Oddly enough, I'm straight. Who would have thought?

For what it's worth, while AW.org is a wonderful place for friendship and appliances, it's a lousy place to meet single women!

 

[sudsman]

Oh Bob

your a cutie just as your are!

Aww shucks Lee, thanks (blush).

"Gay" came to be code for homoseuxal Hollywood California.

"He is living the gay life", meant "he is living the happy life".

And it's happy because there is no wife, no kids, no huge mortgage...........

The moustache silly. :-

If gay men could get pregnant (I mean truly; not have fun trying)......... there would be a cure for stretch-marks in a year.
