girlie219 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Hi, please excuse my intrusion on this board but I just wanted to ask a question. I'm a straight female in my early twenties. Recently I was at a small party with some friends where it was half gay and half straight people. This lesbian girl at the party asked me if I'm straight. She knew i was friends with one of the straight hosts of the party so I thought it was rather odd for her to ask me that. Was she trying to chat me up, or did she think she could turn me or something? I found it a little odd because my sexuality has never been questioned before Link to comment
CharlesF Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Since you said the party was half gay, she was just asking to find out. I went to a mostly gay party and some guy asked me "Are you a homsexual?" I just said no. Link to comment
Mythical_Suicide Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 First of all,no post is an intrusion so don't feel that way about posting As for this friend, seems like maybe she was just asking a simple question. I don't really understand how you could get that she was trying to "turn" you just from a question of whether you are straight or lesbian. People get asked that every day and it wasn't even like she was questioning you about it she just simply asked which do you prefer guys or girls. Link to comment
rosephase Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Just because you are friends with the straight host doesn't mean your straight. Was it upsetting to you to be asked? Link to comment
lila... Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Since you said the party was half gay, she was just asking to find out. I went to a mostly gay party and some guy asked me "Are you a homsexual?" I just said no. I agree. If I went to a half straight/half gay party I'd be curious to know which ones were straight/gay too. So I'm pretty sure she was just curious. There's no reason to take offense in it. Link to comment
Mythical_Suicide Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Ah I think I have it now, You seem to have developed feelings in the past for a female co-worker, is the reason it bothered you so much because you aren't fully comfortable with your sexuality? Link to comment
MyheartorHis Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 I think it's odd that you got so much from a question. I think what she asked was simple and she was just being curious. Is there something that we're missing that would explain why you have reacted this way to her question? Link to comment
agent1607307371 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 She was probably interested but just didn't want to waste time chatting up a straight chick. If you're in a party with gay and straight people, then the assumption is not immediately going to be that you're straight, it's going to be that you'd better check. Link to comment
l9grl Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 it is much easier to ask a woman if she is straight than to ask if she is bi or gay - speaking from experience! maybe you pinged her gaydar, and she wanted to be sure Link to comment
gardengnome Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 She pressed the "Full Room Scan" button on her Gaydar she bought, and you came up as "Possible Lesbian". She just wanted to test it out to see if it was working properly. Gaydar is 100% accurate, 50% of the time. You'd better check yourself. Link to comment
