Gay

[villager64]

Now im not gay but everyone calls me gay and I dont know what to do about it and I dont know what to say back and its starting to make me feel really crappy about myself. Any comebacks/ advice?

You can politely ask them to stop. Retaliation is never the answer because you're sinking to their level. Also, you shouldn't feel bad about yourself. That's what they want; a reaction. If you give them what they want, they'll never stop. If this doesn't work, then you should ignore it and they'll eventually get bored and stop.

don't see the problem bro... it's completly normal for boys to call eachother "gay".. just don't pay attencion... take it as a joke, i guess that's what it is...

so they are calling you gay, but you arent - right? okay, its only a name and you kmnow that you arent, so it shouldnt matter what anyone calls you because people arent always going to like you and thats just a part of life that we have to get used to. do you think there is something wrong with being gay? you are who you are and as long as you know that nothing else should matter. dont sweat the small stuff because its all small stuff. okay?

[Fanta_Lover44]

Well simple just ignore them, people call me gay, i just blank them out like they're not even in the room. Its just life and will always be around you so the best idea is just ignore it. And try not to let small stuff like this get to you.

I understad all of this and Im thankful for the help but the thing is I dont really know if they are oking or not, mabey its the way I talk, dress etc. but idk...

[blarg2011]

but do u feel effeminate in any way?

[killerrockyroad]

Forget what they say

[bmcelyea97]

You need to tell them that they have the wrong definition of the word "gay". Gay means that you are in a sexual relationship with another man if you are a guy. Just because you and your friends might fool around doesn't mean your gay. Not saying that you do this. I absolutely hate it when someone calls a non gay person gay. I am gay and I take no offense to it but I completely understand how you must feel.

Hi villager64! Don't listen to them, not worth it! If it bothers you so much and you can't pretend that it doesn't hear, try to talk to and tell them that bothers you.

[Luminous]

Don't listen to them. It's just a name. Don't stoop to their level and call them names - show them that they aren't hurting you.

I had this a done for two years and I felt like crap. I have recently realised I'm bi.... Just say 'Why would it matter if I was?' It always throws them. Ignore, I know its hard, them. Block on cyber platforms. Stay away in school. Try not to retaliation. Itr will make things worse. Tell me about how things go. I always have an open ear, because I know I like to have one.

[DarkHorse4eva]

don't listen to them. they're just trying to bully you, tho i can't see how being called gay can be bullying (said the gay guy)
it's not as bad as it sounds, but lots of people thinks that :/

[xandyx]

Just walk away or turn the other direction and don't give them the attention

[backjruton]

I would just go along with it. Personally if I was in this situation (and not thinking I'm gay myself) I would just smile in a really disturbing way and walk away from them. Calling people names never works, and I know this because defending myself has backfired quite a lot for me...

I'm kinda in the same boat you are in, I used to hate being called gay. However, being gay is becoming more and more accepted as the days go on, so I figured that yes I may be a bit on the camp side but there are worse things they could call me. And even my close friend says I'm too girly even though people say we make such a dashing couple. I kinda make the gay jokes first so when someone is talking about their girlfriend I will turn to my friend and say "Where is my x?" and everyone laughs.

Another thing is if Family Guy is popular in your area, there is an episode where Peter is turned gay and when asked if he is gay he says very flamboyantly "Guilty!" so I say reply like that as well. That always gets a few laughs and changes the topic to Family Guy, nearly all the time.

Just remember if your not gay then it doesn't matter what people think even if you maybe a little camp.
