Then what's a gay "supposed" to do?

[lgtenos]

So I visited some old friends yesterday. All eight of us haven't been in the same vicinity for more than three years; guess you can say we had a reunion. As with any reunion, people ask about what has been happening recently. When it was my turn to shine, I said:

"I was a firefighter for three years. I loved it, but it turned out to be a hobby instead of a career. Then I enlisted in the military for one year. Awesome experience, but as soon as news of my homosexuality was released, I was dismissed. I REALLY want to go back, but I can't, obviously. A few achievements every now-and-then: Inter-Club Council President, Military Order of the Purple Heart Award recipient, $1000 scholarship, nothing too serious. And now I'm an Anthropology major, studying to become a Primatologist. Yes, I want to work with monkeys and apes."

Friend: "Wait. You're gay? Aren't they into fashion and hairstyling?"

Me: "Um... Is that ALL you think a gay is "supposed" to do?"

I found it rather funny surprised

lol sad part is though, most of the gay men i know have taken up careers in hair and theatre  

[Misharu Foxrayne]

Oh, you silly stereotypes. I'm gay and I'm an East Asian Studies major with a focus on Japanese ^^; Nothing hair or fashion about that.

...Then again I'm really talented at character design when I make up characters for stories and RPs >w<; oops.

lol this happened to me once, my idiot manager overheard i was gay and asked me if i wanted to go dancing with her...

Really? you never expressed any interest in hanging out with me before this, but because I'm gay you think i want to me your gay friend to go clubbing with?

I dont even like dancing or clubs or any of that stuff...


I am a Geek thank you very much!! I like Children's card games on motorcycles and watching funny people with spiky hair scream at each other for 30 minutes before throwing a punch... i couldnt give a crap about fashion if i tried.  

[lgtenos]

Lol.

Another Friend: "Wow. You have some serious balls to go into the Army."

Me: "Well, I am a guy after all."

I chuckled, imagining it.

You could tell them you climbed Mount Everest, cured cancer, have a boyfriend, and were abducted by highly advanced aliens, and the response might still be, "Wait, go back to the part about the boyfriend...?"  

[noigel]

Well, it's good to have men in the theatre business. I was recently in a musical, and half of the male characters were played by girls. We had two guys in the whole cast.
