Straight boys and men hate and despise having passes made to them by men. Every man I’ve ever known has told me a terrible story like this (sans dress and makeup). Can’t wait to see how it works out in the military.
I once knew a gay man who obviously lead a double life. He was a nice, intelligent man - a lawyer - but occasionally he would turn up at the office, obviously beaten to a pulp. We all know what happened...
When I lived in Hollywood, I had a number of guys make passes ate me.
I’d just tell ‘em I’m straight.
It doesn’t need to be a big deal.
A lot of gays are grabby and a lot of men’s first interaction with gays is when they are young boys, so naturally straight men despise them.
I worked with a guy like that. Or they get locked in a closet for a day or two.
Also, went to an open house at a house for sale that had locks both inside and outside all of the closets and cupboards.
Disgusting.
Having passes made at you is one thing. But, when I was 17 I was accosted in a grocery store in Northern Virginia. A guy came up to me and put hands on me and made some very disgusting suggestions.
He then shoved me against the freezer doors and tried to basically molest me. At this point, I had been resisting but then I just said to hell with it and the fight was on. I kicked him into the open cold shelving section and went to the managers desk and asked that they call the police.
Long story short, I was blamed, the gay guy said I started it, I was barred from the store and threatened with prosecution. All because the manager of the store didn’t want to seem prejudice against gays. Never mind that there were witnesses and the store security video...
If someone wants to be gay, that’s their business. I don’t appreciate it being forced on me and I don’t appreciate how they are being treated as a special class of citizen. I’m heterosexual. I like women... a lot actually. I’m not gay or act gay. Yet, the audacity of the person that accosted me still offends me.
I guess my point is this. A gay guy can say, “hey, I find you attractive, wanna go out?” or a gay guy can violate your personal space and accost you. Either way, it can be called making a pass. The former doesn’t bother me, the latter will get someone’s @ss kicked.
I can relate to that...
I did a google search on the gym I belong to and discovered a chat board talking about the club. Evidently back then (it was a few years old) it was discussed as a potential "hit spot" for homos looking for companions.
The one thing they discussed, which I am totally familiar with, was the necessity for eye contact. Homosexuals will always attempt to make eye contact with you wherever you are and if you are a homo, you will make that instantaneous connection...........
