Gay (Part 1)

This is called this Part 1 as I have not decided if all will be told in this post or if there is more to tell at a later time.

I should be upfront in that talking about these topics some people may not want to read on, so this is going to be a post talking about "gay stuff" - if this does not interest you I won't be offended.

Whilst being upfront I have a little confession.  I am a bit anti-gay.  Harsh words you may say.  So how do I explain this.  Too be honest I am not sure I can.  It is just that many gay guys annoy me.  I know this is totally wrong.  In my past experiences I find so many gay guys have this need to be someone they are not or someone who they think they should be.

I don't find the whole air kissing, wrist flapping and the word daaarlllliiiinnnng all that appealing.  Is this wrong?

Maybe the following will assist in explaining.  Many guys I know each year go to Mardi Gras to perform and to be part of the festivities.  The process leading up to this often involves a very strict gym routine, often skipping meals, waxing, shaving, tanning etc all to be someone they are not for 1 night.  Then after a night of sex, drugs and rock and roll (well disco) it all goes out the window and as the tan fades the kilos reappear all to be done again next year.  This is what I don't understand.  I don't "get" the need to be someone who they are not just for one night.

Conversely I have met many guys that are the complete opposite.  These guys are often married.  Yes you read correctly.  How does one meet married gay guys.  Well with technology these days you can meet these guys at the click of an icon on your smart phone.  These guys live 22 hours of the day as a "straight" married man often with children and for 2 hours out the day they are quite happy to be gay.  I am hoping that I don't have to join the dots......

Having met guys that fall into the above 2 categories it has been a breath of fresh air to meet some that are just genuine and down to earth who have made me less anti.  These ones are my friends.

People that I class as friends are the ones that you obtain something from.  It maybe as simple as enjoying their company or as complex as expanding your mind.  So in conclusion maybe I should just be less judgemental and enjoy friendship whether they be straight or gay.

There will definitely be a part 2 and possibly a part 3 on this topic.
