Test your gaydar!
« on: May 20, 2008, 09:36:38 pm »
A friend of mine went to the prom this past weekend, and I was asked to select the young homosexual in the picture.

Options 1-4 form from the left (i.e. the boy on the far left is 1, and then move across to the far right for 4).

Poll runs for five days, and feel free to offer commentary.

I vote #4 as well.
Her finely-touched spirit had still its fine issues, though they were not widely visible. Her full nature, like that river of which Cyrus broke the strength, spent itself in channels which had no great name on the earth. But the effect of her being on those around her was incalculably diffusive: for the growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.

That is exactly what I thought - #4 because of the hands.  He's the least comfortable.

Um, should the poll maybe be which one isn't?

One, not setting the gaydar off at all.
Two, is setting it off, however, the holding the jacket like that is a play straight thing, plus the lilac is probably his dates dress color.
Three, his hands are closed on the shoulder's of the other 2, not really gay.
Four, uncomfortable, closeted most likely if he is gay.

At this age a gay kid is usually pretty out there...in that case it would be #2 or #3.

Guess still would have to go with...#2.

OHHH wait...#1 has his hand open on the other guys shoulder, pretty well dressed too. I go with #1 now.

If I was going to attend a family reunion and wanted to borrow a child to be my son for the evening, I would choose #1 because he appears to be the most masculine.

I have noticed the boys 1,2 &3 are all looking at the camera.  Boy # 4 appears to be looking at one of the other boys  ;D  Have the best day

Having totally blew the test, now I will try to read their minds.

#1 - "Ah, I love being gay. I'm so fabulous! Look at my cool tone-on-tone threads. These clowns quiver in my shadow. Hah, if only whitie here knew where my left hand has been!"

#2 - "Jesus, do I really have to stand here wearing this fucking purple vest? Everyone's gonna think I'm the poofter!"

#3 - "What does 'gay' mean? And where's the beer? *BURP*!"

#4 - "Am I gay? I dunno, maybe. I can't really tell. Does it matter? Hm. What if? Maybe I should talk to someone. Oh god, he put his arm around me. Feels...kinda nice. But no, it shouldn't! Ugh! Oh god, what's happening to my cock? Better cover it up!"

Number 4 is cute, but I think its number 3.

Just cause.

im going with 1 or 4. my contrived gaydar says 1, my hunch keeps going back to number 4. number 4 is waiting to turn 18 so he can be the best bottom he can possibly be. but  number 1 is too dapper. questionably fashionable even.

fuck it, i say 1.

This thread is too funny! :D My gaydar told me it was #4 in about 30 seconds. There's something about the way he is holding himself together. Almost all the guys have their arms around a buddy and seem comfortable except #4. He seems isolated and to himself (similar to the way I appear in pictures, never grabbing anyone and very independent). Besides, #4 has the perfect skin to match any colored dress or wig for his drag-wear!!! ;D He'll have a ball...

fuck it, i say 1.

So: can you tell from a photograph (let's say of a confirmed homo) or video whether a guy is a "natural" bottom or top? This could be a whole new poll...
Her finely-touched spirit had still its fine issues, though they were not widely visible. Her full nature, like that river of which Cyrus broke the strength, spent itself in channels which had no great name on the earth. But the effect of her being on those around her was incalculably diffusive: for the growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.

i think it has to do with his lighter hair color. in our somewhat fucked social norms, lightness connotes frailty, submissiveness, docility, you get the picture. it could also be why so many of us are picking number 4, he would be the "fairest" contestant. but that's a whole other can of worms, along with heteronormative conceptions of masculinity. cant find the butch homo can we?

all the bullshit aside, i still think it's either 1 or 4. im leaning for number 1. philly is definitely working us a good one : )

I want to play here but my gaydar is broken. Has been for some time it seems.  I have been so surprised at being wrong too often in the past decade.

My guess is #3. He's expressing his warmth nicely. (we don't live in the closet anymore, ain't that so?)

Even IF supposedly only one of them is supposedly gay now, that doesn't preclude membership on the team at a future time. They kinda all look like slices of fruitcake to me but then that's adolescence ain't it so?

Give each of 'em a supply of condoms and tell 'em to enjoy using them is wot I say.
