I've had lots of gay friends- some whe were open about it in HS/college, some who were not. I have always been very comfortable with their sexuality. It was a non-issue. I remember a classmate saying once that she was disappointed when she found out some guy she liked was gay. She said "what a waste". I found that offensive. It isn't a "waste", especially to those he loves and who love him. Her comment struck me a s shallow.
Once, in grad school, a bunch of us were going ot go to see the SE regional Drag queen contest. My BF refused to go. I wondered which was more bothersome to him- if guys were interested in him, or if they weren't! We went, He didn't. It was a fun time! |
