Is gaydar real? Study says people can tell who's gay just by a glance

[~Tyson~]

well i can see that being true to an extent because there was a study that showed most gay people's hair like so, like gay men's hair are suppose to go counterclockwise

and there was something esle about one of your fingers being shorter or something
i thikn the index or middle i dont remember

Sounds like an old-wives tales to me.

I don't know why, I don't know how, but we need to start worrying about real problems. Not on a study called gaydar which is based on statistics that hardly supports it in the first place.

Any controversial studies will always get the media's attention to be publish. Controversies, death, beauty and sex always attracts readers attention like flies to a carrion.

-- Well i took "more feminine" as you saying they have low testosterone. --

That's all fair and well, but it was I who wrote it, not you. There is really nothing to suggest that I was talking about their testosterone levels.

-- I was talking about that, your saying that *******uals dress weird, and im saying that everybody dresses weird. Your making sound like all *******uals are feminine which is not true, and its not even the fact that you said that its the fact you said because they use make up? --

There is a certain trend in fashion. So, no, you're incorrect by labeling everyone as weird in the same context in which I labeled some homosexuals.

I'm not making it sound like all homosexuals are feminine. You're making a straw man; putting words into my mouth to gain momentum in this argument.

-- I know some people who dress like women, wear makeup. But you seems like your saying all *******uals tend to wear makeup --

Notice the usage of "tend" in my text and the COMPLETE absent of the word "all" in my argument? Try to read the text the way the writer intended for you to read it, not the other way around. Normally, I'd call you a fucking moron by now, but you're clearly a child.

Im just an argumentative person i guess, whatever whats done is done

Probably, I never said it was real

A controversial new study suggests people can judge whether someone is gay in less time than it takes to blink.

We communicate with each other in many different ways the most obvious being face to face interaction where the way we use our various mannerisms are mutually interpreted to form impressions to then make determinations about each other. The first analysis we produce being one of threat detection for the purposes of self protection and preservation.

Our facial gestures as well as our hand gestures start to tell a story about ourselves to those around us indicating our insecurities or confident nature and more!. Body language kicks in to complete the picture and the whole scene depicts ourselves to those around us whom then may interpret and categorise the whole 'act' in a singular way, again subject to their own possible prejudices and life experience.

I doubt that there is any such thing as ‘gaydar’, however I suspect that along with the above simplification of personal interaction we almost certainly communicate with those around us on a subliminal level, so we know or think we know when someone is checking us out we choose to ignore it if not interested but the interest is registered with us we then categorise that interest accordingly.

I though this tread died, i guess not o.o
I guess the finger thing would apply if your bald but regardless it is a pretty silly thing

If you see a self-proclaimed straight man act feminine, wear make-up and dress like a woman, odds are he's a flaming homosexual.

would you consider drag queens as homosexuals?
