There is supposedly this "thing" that certain people have. I don't seem to have it. What am I talking about? "GAYDAR." There are those people who are really good at just looking at an individual and determining whether or not that person is gay. I don't have it. I mean, there are the "obvious" signs, but I've always hated to say that anything is particularly "obvious." Plus, I really don't care who you f**k unless you happen to be f**king me. So let's put that theory to the test, shall we? The following profiles I found while randomly browsing profiles. There are an equal number of each orientation between both the men and the women. Again, there is the disclaimer that I took the person at their Myspazz word and believed the delineation that they specified on their profile. In simpler words, if they said that they were gay or straight, I believed them.

I don't think I have it as well. But then again, there are certain signs and certain characteristics that give it away at times.

Mine used to be that way, but now I have what is called "The Question?" If he knows what designer shoes you are wearing, then he is gay.

I may have this thing called "gaydar" but if I do it is only because a LOT of people I have met over the years and even some I have dated were/are gay. Now I had no idea for a long time that they were gay, but after a little while they all felt they could tell me. To be honest the first person that told me kind of shocked me. I acted like it was okay, but in reality it wasn't, because I had been dating him for awhile and was very hurt from this news. I never let him know though. Then I started hanging out with other people male and female who over time told me they were gay. I was almost to the point that I thought everyone in the world was secretly gay. lol Because of this experience I was more tuned into gay people and developed a knack in detecting them. They do not bother me and I could care less as long as they don't bother me.

I wish I had it. I'm always falling for straight women that I thin are gay. It makes the dating thing difficult. And I wish other lesbians had it, because it's not at all obvious that I'm a lesbian. I know people who can usually tell, but for the most part, it's just a lot of guess work.

Okay first of all, I don't understand why "Gay" is under mature content, but whatever. That's not the point. There are so many different types of homosexuals in tihs world. There are closet-homosexuals (People that know they're gay but won't tell anyone), conservative homosexuals (ones you wouldn't be able to tell) and of course, my favorite, the flamboyant homosexuals! If you can tell by my myLot name, I'm into theatre. I'm studying it at college, and I am involved in their theatre program. There are so many gay people in the theatre district. My gaydar only really goes off with the really flamboyant homosexuals. Although I'm straight, most of my friends at college are either gay or bi and I love them. I dunno if I like using the correct term "gaydar" though...I think that's actually really judgemental .

I don't need gaydar. I basically think most people are pretty gay.

Well, for the men, I went with the notion that if I thought they were hot, they were probably gay. That's often the way things turn out..... sigh.

Sweet. I've n ever been first. I dunno about the who "gaydar" thing. I kinda have it, but it's more talking to someone and being around them instead of just looking at them. Unless they flame. Then, well...yeah.

I am just like you. I remember one time, I went out with a couple of my friends to the mall. While just staring at people around us, they can point out which ones are gays and I'm so dumbfounded I have no idea what their basis were.
