I don't fit any stereotype so I haven't the slightest idea what makes people think that. I even had one creep that would come into the store I worked at years ago and ask "have they converted you yet?" (Both the managers were gay.)

I've quite literally never received any attention like that from women in my life.... I wish I was gay! I'd apparently have a much easier time instead of being single for the last almost decade now lol

I understand the whole "I can't simply change who I am" but from the opposite end. I'm cis and straight, there's nothing I can "change" to no be grossed out by the idea of sleeping with another man lol I even tried watching gay porn when I was 19-20ish just to see and yeah... Nope. Not my jam, which is kinda funny since I love asses, just not man ass lol

"have they converted you yet?"

"Do y'all still get toaster ovens for a conversation or have they updated to air fryers these days" is probably the only response I'd give.

I wish I didn't have stupid social anxiety so I could actually think during conversations, I'd love to be able to have those kinds of quips lol

This is gonna sound like a #humblebrag but same. I've had drunken gay dudes thank me for existing because they found me that attractive. I know a decent amount of women find me attractive but it's nowhere near the same degree.

My wife is highly amused by it, but it's like damn, I'd be absolutely killing it if I was at all into dudes.

I'm bi or pan or something along those lines and I don't fit stereotypes either. When I came out to people at 17, the usual reaction was disbelief then followed up by questioning (being asked how did I know?) basically people were asking how sexually active I was. So now I wear pride bracelets or necklaces to show people I am out and proud.

I even tried watching gay porn when I was 19-20ish just to see and yeah... Nope.

Yeah I did the same thing at that age and was absolutely transfixed. Felt weird about it though, so I didn't try again for a while.

Of course it's obvious in hindsight lmao

Can confirm: just got my results back and it turns out I have something like 20-30% The Gay. This sub knew before I did!

I'm also cis but the memes are great

[–] pixeltree@lemmy.blahaj.zone 34 points 6 months ago

Don't gotta be non-cis to enjoy this place! It's just a great positive space

[–] vonbaronhans@midwest.social 27 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I did not know this was a trans space, tbh. Thank you for entertaining us cishets!

That's what a queer in a closet would say

I'm furry in a way that's similar to trans, but it has nothing to do with my gender, though there is a lot of relatable overlaps concerning inward identity vs outward appearance.

Wait, we need to be gay to be here?

[–] Nurgle@lemmy.world 35 points 6 months ago (3 children)

Cis is the “opposite” of trans, like gay is the “opposite” of straight. That said it wouldn’t hurt to be a little gayer.

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 16 points 6 months ago

🫡 I will find some gay shit to do tout de suite

[–] SuddenDownpour@sh.itjust.works 13 points 6 months ago

I'm doing crimes, is that enough for the "be gay, do crimes" part?
