This homosexual is so screwed up that he cannot even admit he is gay. Usually homosexuals refer to themselves as gay to escape the admission that they are homosexuals, which in effect, makes them the true definition of homophobes.
This homosexual would have us believe that he is not a homosexual but all the males he has sex with are homosexuals.
