HONEST OPINION, GUYS.

When you find out someone is gay, do you automatically assume or expect them to act in the stereotypical way in which gay people are perceived by today's society?

Your responses would be much appreciated!

No, I don't. I'm gay myself, and I have a lot of gay friends, and honestly, pretty much none of them are your "stereotypical gay" that people perceive in today's society. It's stereotyping and judging, just like with anything else, but it's a fact of life that people still do it.

Thanks for letting me know :D

I don't, being gay I have realized that with most gay guys you could put them in a crowd and they would blend in. Gay guys are like most other people and do things just as others do, we all put on our pants on one leg at a time. (If you don't.... I will cut you)

I don't . stereotypeing gay people is so wrong . They might be right next to you an you can't tell. the whole world is gay .

[ReginaGeorge]

Not at all. If people want to embrace it, that's cool. If not, that's still cool. People should just be themselves. :)

Yes, buy not in a negative way at all.
Humans are mentally programmed to judge people. It's a saftey thing.
I love gay people, they're like the nicest people I know! :)

[Abyssal Echo]

I'm gay too :D so. no I don't

[SamB]

I don't, and I honestly do not understand how people can judge you instantly, if you have know someone for a long time and then they come out to you, what has changed about them? Nothing. All that is different is that they know some more about the person.

No as every one is diferent.

But what is your idea of

"the stereotypical way in which gay people are perceived by today's society?"

[VictoriaGotaSecret]

no, not everybody acts like the assumption

[Lost in the Echo]

It depends on who the person is.
Typically though, I wouldn't expect them to act the stereotypical gay way, but like I said, it depends on who the person is.
Like, how their personality and shit is.
Everybody is different.

if you mean the limp wrist, feminine acting stereotype, NO...I'm gay, on 3 sports teams as much of a macho jock as anyone as are many of my gay friends....actually there are like 5 guys other than myself that are gay on my swim team...no one knows but the 6 of us about being gay...I am out ...they are not...you couldn't pick them out if asked...and most guys unless they know me personally and know I'm gay....would never suspect at all...besides....what difference does it make...we are all humans...you wouldn't expect a straight boy to act different than any others...as a matter of fact many straight boys are assumed gay that aren't cause of a high voice or some "stereotypical" feature that society deems as homosexual

i'm gay and i don't at all gay people are the same as straight. they just like the same sex. It's not like they have a choice they are born the way they are. It's heredity, it gets passed downfrom relative. I'm gay my mom is bi both of my grandmothers are bi.

[Destinyforce]

Nada, everyone is different. Like someone above was saying, most of the time the stereotypical behavior is on straight guys. I'm straight...i think :/ and I have an extremely high voice, and am a bit feminine.
