I got 43% and it said that I'm just a well adjusted homo guy. Try telling that to my family. The think I'm totally gay. I mean think about it I hate bugs and blood. I bye clothes all the time and love shopping.

Yes I'm gay but the test is fake. They base it off stupid things. My dad could do it and possibly get a gay score when he has a GF lol.

According to my anatomy, I do not have to take a test to ask me what I should be, could be, or would be, doing with it sexually.

(oh come on laugh nobody thinks these quizzes are real)

Here's what I don't get. I shave my head, but only because my hair stopped growing. That was going to count as gay. I feel absolutely nothing from "lesbian" porn, in quotes because it is usually straight girls just trying to turn on guys. The L word, on the other hand, I think is hot, but that is because they are doing fake porn moaning, and you underststand that they are into each other, not a object for men. But I don't have a nightly face regimen with product, I don't have a revolving door in my bedroom, I about strangled a visiting house guest that kept saying, Girrrrrrrl, every 10 minutes. I think the PNP crowd is flirting with trouble. I'm usually bored to tears with the soulless music as gay clubs, and prefer something with guts, (Jamariquoi, R&B Stevie Wonder, U2) over the cheesy gay stuff. I do like Madonna, however. I think paying $400 for a Tshirt, especially if it is simply to use you body as a billboard, is stupid. I'm tired to death of the faux hawk and kewpie door flip in the front. I say drink, and not "cocktail". I've only seen the pilot of Queer as Folk. I really don't care what people think of me, what I'm wearing, nor do I, at 45, try to dress like I'm 20. I like men around my own age, and am not a "chicken hawk." I hate the labels of bear, twink, queer punk, rice queen, etc. I go to Gay Pride, but in Minneapolis, it bums me out, because the younger generation has simply made it a party, instead of focusing on how far we have to go, legalizing Civil Gay Marriage, for example.

So, I'm kind of 70%.
But am i 30% Straight? Kind of. Some of it is good (the music, the way I can get ready in 10 minutes in the morning (but remember, I shave my head), but I think it's laziness more than anything else.

And I do find black women attractive. I've never dated one, and I think were I to date a woman, she would have to be bisexual, so she wouldn't freak out when our mouths both dropped when we saw one of the New Kids on the Block's shirt fly open and see his ripped abs. Then again, the fact that I went to a New Kids on the Block Concert should make my mouth drop in and of itself. (No, I didn't, but some of my coworkers went. To me, that's like going to a Jonas Brothers concert, where there is no beer line because no one there is old enough.

aw man! it said i was girlie :(


Hahaha. I was having my morning cup of tea and read that and thought, "poor bloke". Then I saw the arrow pointing down and nearly spat out my drink from laughing. Nice one!

I'm a guy that scored 23% And I was a little disappointed. I was expecting about 10-15%. You know, "me man, do stinky farts, drive big car, dress like hillbilly dag".

And then I remember because of a circulation condition that causes me to have frequent cramps in winter because of excessive cold, I often wear tights instead of long johns, (in all fairness, suggested to me by 2 women, and fully endorsed by my wife). And then I thought, "oh man, I'm lucky to have 23% at all. If that was in the quiz, I would have rated more like 53%". Haha.

:p

That test is trying really hard to force stereotypes about homosexual behavior...

Yes of course, and it's complete nonsense too. But a bit of fun, as the OP suggested. If you are a guy that loves shopping and clothes and looks after himself, well then you must by gay.

Total stereotypical nonsense but a bit of fun only. So lighten up. Just go with the flow here.

To the OP: Thanks for having a thread where we can all laugh a bit. It was extremely healing for me, amidst the constant feeling that one has to explain themself, justify thei relationship, arguing semantics, and dealing with yellow journalism that someone claims is fact.

I was really emotionally getting wiped out, so thanks. It's like spa for my heart.
Oh, gees, "Hello? Halmark Cards? I would like a job writing Greeting Cards. I will send you this post to show my level of sincerity and simultaneous ability to be cheesus maximus.

Your own personal cheeses.

Stereotypes are overexaggerations of truth.
No, most gay men have no interest in lesbian porn.
They usually don't get into fistfights, nor promote them.
They often use Biore and other face products, and go to the School of Immoveable Hair.
They wear Kewpie Doll flips in the front, or fauxhawks.
They often wear a tight Abercrombie & Fitch shirt like it was a uniform.
Gay magazines will always have ads for bars with shirtless men, underwear night, and like their heterosexual equivalents, often try to appeal to their sex drive, or constant thoughts of sex.

Etc.

That is true. Gay people fit that role or don't, but will have many that do. (I wanted an EZBake oven when I was 5. Most of my childhood friends were girls, and I played Jumprope and Jacks, and hated sports.
But I also hate monobeat Disco Gay Music (and even like Rave far more), like occassional Goth, The Killers, Nitzerebb, Front242, etc.
I'm average looking, and my body at 45 looks like a body at 45. I'm not the boy girls say, "What a waste" to, but do have a gentle heart.

So, to some extent, there is truth in stereotype, but thinking everyone is blatantly false. Do gay men molest children? Yes, sadlly, and so do heterosexual men, even married men, but that doesn't mean that one's orientation is an indicator of that.
Do gay men have promiscous sex? Some do. Some go through a phase. If heterosexual men could go to a bathhouse and have sex with beautiful women who were very willing (and didn't even have to buy them a drink), the line would be out the door and around the block. I often think straight men resent that. But as with straight guys that might have a wild time in college, gay men often want something of substance, want something more. Some become very monogamous (I'm unable to date any other way. I've tried), and some even get married.

There is a huge spectrum, but stereotypes are sometimes based on overgeneralization of a smaller truth.

I'm 50% gay...lower than expected. Oh, I know why...I don't play pool or change my oil. If I did, I'd be 100%...I'd be a real lesbian :p

This is what it said: "Congratulations. You've scored right in the middle and are a happy and well adjusted lesbian babe!"

According to my anatomy, I do not have to take a test to ask me what I should be, could be, or would be, doing with it sexually.

Of course you would go out of your way to post on this thread. Hhhmmm. You know you want to (maybe you secretly did) take the test.

I got 53%, your average straight woman.

Judging from my experience, which includes eighteen years in the city and the rest of my life rural, most of the gay stereotypes you list are mostly limited to city life, where I imagine cliques and fads are born and raised and reinforced. As for the promiscuity angle, I think it is exaggerated, and that young heterosexual men are just as willing to be promiscuous. Then again, it is mostly gay men and women who are partnered up/married who move in middle age to their dream home with a garden and raise daylilies or open a bakery, and who aren't interested in fads and fashions.

As for 'percentage of gayness', yes, the test is silly, but it is also true that most gay men are raised to be men, and are men - not masculinized females, which some people seem to think. I have a gay male friend of thirty-five years - he is my oldest friend. I had a huge fight with him once, over the fact that he unthinkingly had treated me financially in a manner i would have expected from a straight and none too enlightened man. I was working for him at the time, and so was another (straight) man. He was short on cash, so he paid the man. When I asked him why, he admitted he just assumed a man would need the money more. It was how he'd been raised. I remember yelling at him "I don't care how gay you are, you were born and raised a man and you're still a man and you certainly act like one!" before stomping off in a rage.

Sounds silly, but it taught both of us something about stereotypes, and something about privilege.
