6 signs that your friend is gay
In modern civilized society, homosexuality has ceased to be a stigma. Every year, dozens of famous personalities come out, seeing no more reasons to hide their orientation. Despite this, many continue to keep their personal lives secret and these people are among us. How to recognize a gay person in your friend or just an acquaintance?
Science has not yet created an indicator that could identify a person of non-traditional orientation. And whether he is needed at all, because sexual predilections are a very intimate side of life. Those who believe that hiding is not worth it, it is not difficult to notice by the way they dress, behavior and lifestyle. But hidden gays will have to be recognized by special signs. There are dozens of them, but we will focus on the 6 most obvious ones.
It is rightly noted that tastes are not disputed. It is quite clear that even a brutal straight man can be a secret fan of anime and a connoisseur of Kirkorov's creativity. But all the same, stereotypes did not appear out of the blue and homosexuals have their own points in music and cinema.
There are a lot of oldfags among gays who highly value the work of Queen, The Rolling Stones, Deep Purple and other cult rock classics. They also appreciate the good disco of the 90s and even the 80s. At the same time, these people did not necessarily find the heyday of this music — they just like it. Determining on this basis, it is easy to fall into error, because millions of heterosexuals with good taste also prefer such music.
Things are about the same with movies. For gays, elitism is characteristic, so they will prefer strange arthouse paintings "not for everyone" and psychological films about the hard everyday life of people rejected by society to action movies and melodramas. However, they also love light musicals of the end of the last and the beginning of this century. But again, do not forget that there are no films for gays and non-gays. Therefore, this sign is not at all obvious.
The way a man treats women can give away his orientation. If your friend is indifferent to ladies in provocative outfits, and at the sight of a bold neckline expresses not delight, but puritanical anger, then there is something to think about. At the same time, many gay men feel great in women's society and even enter into a traditional marriage.
Research by sexologists and psychologists suggests that homosexuals most often like modest girls. They can also be women who look like strict teachers or pronounced mistresses. The most extreme manifestation can be considered an interest in women who look like guys, that is, with a specific figure and a short haircut. It is not difficult to check the tastes of a friend. You just need to ask him to show a photo of his feminine ideal on Instagram.
Usually gays grab men by the ass and climb up to them to kiss only in stupid comedies. Individuals with shocking behavior in real life are extremely rare. But the attitude of a homosexual to a guy who is not indifferent to him still has its own characteristics.
Here everything works the same way as heterosexuals with girls. A gay man will try to spend as much time as possible with the person he likes. He will come up with a lot of reasons to be around again. These will be joint walks, events, holidays, tourist outings and just conversations about anything. Most likely, he will suffer, but he will not betray himself if he values male friendship.
Since most parents in our country have Soviet upbringing, they accept their child's homosexuality very reluctantly. Gay people, most often, have strained relationships in the family. Many of them become independent early and begin to live separately. This is one of the ways to save yourself from constant reproaches and instructions. There are also those who, after the coming-out, were shown the door by their parents themselves.
In any case, gays do not like home gatherings with their parents and relatives. In special cases, when the family is too aggressively looking for communication, they move to another city. So if your friend is not enthusiastic about his "old men", and you can't understand what the differences are, then you can consider this option.
Gay men always have more heterosexuals and women in their friends and buddies than homosexuals. They are often very interesting interlocutors and even the soul of the company. Girls like guys of non-traditional orientation, as they are always neat, tactful and able to support in difficult times. Gays are not inclined to mock people and assert themselves at someone's expense.
Accounts of guys with non-traditional orientation are always beautifully decorated and filled with high-quality and interesting pictures. Moreover, the owner of the page himself is not often found in these photos. Gay subscriptions are dominated by groups dedicated to art, history, all kinds of hobbies and other intellectual things.
There is an opinion that all gay people are artists, writers, musicians or dancers. Indeed, the percentage of homosexuals among the creative intelligentsia is quite high. But still not all gays belong to bohemia. Among them there are programmers, doctors, drivers and even astronauts. But with hobbies, things are different.
Gays are rarely interested in football and fishing, indifferent to gambling and martial arts. They will prefer visiting a theater or an exhibition to going to an MMA fight. Many of them are passionate collectors, while collecting not bottles of elite alcohol or knives, but postage stamps, paintings, figurines or tapestries. Unfortunately, gays are prone to self-destruction. Usually they smoke, they don't mind drinking and even using something stronger.
The signs listed by us, although they have a high degree of reliability, still will not help to identify a gay man with a 100 percent guarantee. There is always a chance of making a mistake. Therefore, if your friend is dear to you and you do not want to spoil your relationship with him, accept him as he is and do not conduct any investigations. In the end, if he feels the need, he will explain everything to you himself.
