I, A Gay Man, Would Like to Announce That I'm Gay

Rate: 23 Flag

I'd like to make an announcement.

I'm gay.

I know this is going to come as a shock to some of you. After all, some of you are blind, or deaf, or blind and deaf, or living in a bunker.

After all, I've only been having sexual relations with men for eight years now. Although many of you probably didn't know that, because I wasn't having those relations directly in front of you. I know that when you haven't actually SEEN someone have sex with another person, it can be difficult to determine just what sort of person that person would like to be personal with in that way.

Yes, it can be very confusing.

So to clear things up, I'm gay.

I like guys.

I knew that a lot of you would need me to announce this in a public fashion since everybody already saying that I was and the fact that I haven't been involved with a woman...ever.

So yeah, gay here. Big ole gay.

You may not have noticed, but all the signs were there.

I'm into guys. I've made out with guys. Guys have talked about making out with me.

All somewhat red flags.

Still, it was wrong of me not to just come out--pardon the pun--and say it.

So I'm saying it.

Me = Gay.

There.

I'm glad we could clear that up.

TMI. FYI. NOC. GOI

Too much info, For your info, no one cares, get over it.

We all have our crosses to bear.
Sshh. Haven't your heard? Don't ask, don't tell! The Army says so.
I think it was pretty clear from the first post I ever read by you but Im glad you got it off your chest and I hope you dont mind an old chick like me following you along on your journey.
So what are you saying?
What? I thought I had a shot. Damn. (just posted my own thoughts on this)
I'm still not sure you're gay. I mean, a lot of men experiment. They swim with other men in trunks that cannot be removed. All the time. Those men eventually marry and become Senators. There is hope for a normal life!
really? whoda thunk.
I am indifferent to this, I hope you don't care. I assume you are indifferent about my being not gay. That's the way it should be. Ooops, sorry I shoulded-on-you.

R.
So where's your list of your ten favorite books? Let's get to the good stuff shall we?
So you're saying I shouldn't try to set you up with my sister?
Happy coming out to OS! xox
I'm just going to guess that Ricky Martin took over your blog today. Yes? (I got a bit of a laugh from his "news.")
You posted a nice bit of comedy and almost no one got it.

That's so fucking GAY...
So? As John Lennon said "Whatever Gets You Through The Night, Is Alright".
So...you don't go out on dates with females? How is that possible? Doesn't your penis need a vagina to have intercourse?
Is this your homage to Ricky Martin?
Hmmm...would I be revealing too much if I said "get in line, preferably behind me"? :-D
'I like guys.' 'I'm into guys. I've made out with guys. Guys have talked about making out with me.' 'I haven't been involved with a woman...ever.'

but...now i am so confused. most of your blog applies to me too. does that make me gay? or just sort of happy???

*sigh* it's just all too much for a woman with ptsd and short-term memory problems...

(ryan: you just made me spit coffee all over my notebook!! naughty monkey!)(r)
I didn't know it was National Coming Out Day! I'm so happy for you!
Thank you for clearing that up. I'm constantly worried about what people do in their own sex lives.

I hope the amendment to the patriot act has cameras in our bedrooms so we really see what we're up to.

Why is it a secret people? Do you have something to hide?

We should be able to approve or disapprove of your sex life. Like judging gymnastics, we'll be able to score it.

Because we all know what happens in the bedroom is directly related to your life at work and reality.

People that use sex for an escape from reality and their jobs are really disapproving of America.

I for one will not stand for dissing America in the bedroom.
I'm going to ask Ted Haggard and Larry Craig to pray for you so you can be cured, after all, that worked so well for them.
I'm confused, what do you mean
I knew it! I could just tell from the neat way you parse your sentences. All gay guys do that--it's like the interior decorator gene redirected to journalism or something. Right? ;~)
