becoming gay

[Starlight Blaze]

so ever since i came out as gay, I've become gay, like stereotypical gay
its not too bad yet, but its getting "worse" like very noticeable...

has anyone else had this?

[ackmedsgirl666]

yepp several times on several different occasions :(

[Thylacine]

I guess its just who you are. Embrace it or tone it down. I'd go with embrace^^

[Fruit_Tart.]

Unless you spend the rest of your life with straight people, you're bond to start becoming like the friends you have.
It's a good thing. ;)
Just let it all come to you.

im confused about what you mean is anyone allowed to explain??

[ccrunner]

i agree with benbob360 some explinations would be great if not just do with what you feel people who care about you truly wont care

[Goric]

Yeah, this has happened to me..

I think it's because since coming out, you start to explore your sexuality and you're free from hiding it, and you dgaf about what you do to portray your sexuality.

[Tristin.]

iv always been a little obvious lol

just embrace it. have fun and enjoy it :)

[Starlight Blaze]

okay thanks guys!
and @ Ben and Matt
I just am doing hand gestures and things that are considered more stereotypically "gay"
hope that helps :) oh and i think my voice is even"changing" not deeper or higher, but the sort of sound i guess is becoming more "gay" haha

[Infidelitas]

I havent changed at all. And btw I hate the term "Becoming Gay"

[Syvelocin]

Well, yeah, I don't like the term either. But I get exactly what you mean. I think it just comes with realizing to yourself this and becoming comfortable in your skin. I feel the same, I notice more quirks that I have over time that I never realized before, but now that I'm relatively out and I don't pretend to be straight or anything, I feel like I act more like people think lesbians act than I used to.

[Extreme586]

Hmmm now that I think about it, when I get around certain friends of mine that are girls, I do a lot of gestures and what not that if I'm not watching slip and seem sort of "gay". I think it has a lot to do with whatever you used to watch and cover up when you weren't openly gay, and now that you are open about it, those things are just shining through rather than being covered up like they probably used to be. If you still feel like that isn't it, then maybe its any new people you have been hanging around more since you told people? Still kind of think this thing has to do more with how you used to keep yourself from acting when nobody knew tho.

My understanding was that some people unconsciously adopt certain stereotypical mannerism as a sort of way of informing and attracting other gay/lesbian/bi-sexual individuals.

Now, I could be completely wrong; but having accepted your own feelings on the subject, it's only natural to want to interact with people of compatible sexualities.

[mrbob360]

ohh i get what your talking about sometimes it just natural my friend who was like im compltely straight and dont like boys is now completely gay and you can tell he coz he does exactly what you said in the begining but it doesnt bother me and i dont think it should bother you its who you are and tbh it can make you more fun to be around coz its shows that ur being who you are and not someone ur not

[Apollo.]

This annoys me especially because when I tried to come out my friends thought it was a joke and told me I was "to straight to he gay" :S. I don't see why a gay guy should act any different!!!

[Parlement]

Very normal. I hang out with a LOT of girls and very often find myself saying/doing something that not a normal guy would do.

thats the fun about it, you get to explore yourself more.

Love who you are.
