wherin I'm told my sexuality

[PepperElf]

Or... another response to the "how can you not like football, you must be gay!" comments...

"Sorry, I'm too busy BASE jumping to enjoy chasing a ball around a field."

And hell yeah girls can like action flicks and "guy shows". Believe me, I'd much rather watch Spike TV than Lifetime. Desperate Housewives? Soap Operas? ... hell no... I'd rather watch Mythbusters and MacGyver.

and who says gay guys can't do rough things? one of my friends from virginia. During the day he worked in construction. At night, he was a drag queen.

I'm a girl, and I like action movies. I watched The Road Warrior this weekend. Yesterday, someone said, "But that's a guy movie!!" Um, excuse me, how is a dirty, unshaved, buff Mel Gibson in an all leather ensemble a guy movie?

Ah yes, The Road Warrior
-- the paragon of male heterosexuality:

And then there's *my* favorite sport: SCA combat.

You haven't seen manly, until you've watched two people in real armor club each other into the ground!

(Never mind that I know at least a dozen women who do it, too . . .)

[sms001]

Shoot!

My previous reply didn't post.

Anyway. The most avid, knowledgeable, rabid sports fan I know . . . has been gay for about forty years. I wouldn't even presume to START to question him on anything sports related.

Smileyeagle, you've already had more than enough 20/20 hindsight answers to last you a lifetime, but two more:

(Suitable for work.)
"Not watching football makes me gay? Funny, I was under the impression you had to have sex with another man to be gay."


and

(Not so much.)
"Hey buddy. Just 'cause your mom's built like a man doesn't make me gay!"

[Amethyst Hunter]

as a dynamic duo, we will continue to make men unhappy in every way possible....by not cooking, cleaning, and weeding out the sports nuts.

Sweet.

I do so love being evil.

To the OP: Awww, the poor guy. You ruined his attempt to show how tolerant he was of 'alternative lifestyles'. How mean!



To the 'customer': Seriously, Mr. Eats-his-feet-for-breakfast-without-ketchup, my husband would like to have a word with you. He hates football. Why? Because it takes up air time that could be used to broadcast more hockey games. And I appreciate that sentiment because I get cranky when I don't get my hockey fix. So what does that make US?

Canadian.

[RayvenQ]

I'd better avoid Amethyst and Blas then, they'd tear me apart.

I'm not into sports at all, well, except for Moto GP but even then I'm not one to watch that much anymore either.

And I cook too.

[blas]

I'm too lazy to tear anyone apart these days.........

Eh... dressing in drag does not necessarily equate to being gay... the same can be said for the reverse. Drag Queening it up is usually meant to parody being female...

That having been said:

Guys who aren't all that into sports = Blas in
I've been making men unhappy since 1987. No plans on stopping any time soon

I'm on my way toward the other gender... I hate sports... I like to clean, and cook... and someday I hope to own a french maid costume... Care to join me?

You're a macho, macho man, Smiley.

Much like 300.

All the boys I was watching it with seemed awfully offended when I mentioned that it was the most homoerotic movie I'd seen that wasn't gay porn.

All those fit, half naked men in tight leather pants?

But yeesh. At which point did what sports you like decide your sexuality? I kind of thought who you had sex with decided that.

(ad for the record I am officially no sexuality apart from 'oooh, cute!')
