In The Context Of Sexualities

The question isn't whether Mr Anonymous
is gay or not as I am not bothered about
that one bit. I`m however bothered about
the fact that an idiot will have just one look
at someone and ignorantly reach the daft
conclusion that he is gay simply because he
is not constantly seen hanging around with
girls regardless of the quality of the girls.

Sometimes, the misconstrued conclusion
arises when a metrosexual who places
strong emphasis on his appearance or
lifestyle is mistaken for a gay man simply
because he has put a lot of credence into
fashion trends. The fact that he wears red or
other neon coloured trousers doesn’t make
him gay neither does the fact that he
ex foliates/moisturizes his face, gets a
pedicure or manicure or stylish haircuts. It
simply means he is a young man with some
money to spend and living his life the way
he pleases whilst taking meticulous care to
manage his body or that he is simply
meticulous about his outward appearances
and invests whatever resources that is
available to him on his looks. Yes, these
may be attributes stereotypically related to
gay men, but they do not necessarily imply
that such an individual is gay. As a matter of
fact he may still find the thought of actually
getting intimate with another man truly
repulsive.

Some even call you gay simply
because you are not married. Now,I ask,how
stupid is it for someone to arrive at such a
narrow minded conclusion based on the
reasons I just mentioned? And oh,you could
also be tagged gay if some raggedy chic
was all over you like white on rice and you
sort of decided she was so raggedy that you
WOULDN'T even touch her with someone
else`s peanuts if you could borrow one. This
is becoming a sad mental trend and people
are hopping on it. We need to be more
open-minded people. If you are a nice
looking single chap and have not been
tagged as gay yet,don`t start rejoicing yet as
this could happen to you any time. Well, I
reckon you ain`t doing anything right until
you have been tagged gay in this city of
Lagos. Even Banky W has had a taste of it so
if it`s happening to you at the moment,I
advise you to accept if as a phase that will
soon go away. Jobless and inconsequential
folks must find something to occupy
themselves nah,abi?

I run into gays sometimes and never,repeat,never have I had issues with
them. A person’s sexuality does not affect
the amount of love or hate they get from
me,their character determines that. The last
time I checked Elton John is gay but does
more wonderful Charity work across the
globe than all our congress men who
recently promulgated anti-gay laws and
neglected more sensible ideas such as
creating a special court to try corrupt
government officials. I knew that was a
diversionary tactic right from the onset.
