Tell me you're gay, without telling me you're gay

I've recently discovered the olfactory world of niche fragrance houses.

I entertained my mother and her friends with my rousing rendition of "Hello Dolly" and a few other showtunes when I was a kid. I kicked my legs up in the air as I descended the stairs and used one of my mother's scarves for effect.

I loved Cagney and Lacey.

I have a Xena tattoo.

My place of work forces us to "dress" everyday. Not suite and tie (though ties are worn by the most promising) and definitely no jeans. So when I get home, I get comfy and freeball in my light cotton robe...well not robe really, it's a really long shirt type thing for men and they call it a caftan. They're for men.

I have a curio case full of Madame Alexander dolls

My submission to the backyard oasis for Martha Stewart Living got rejected. I would cancel my subscription , but It would kill me if I missed just one issue from my perfect collection.

R103 I think R102 is making fun of the fact that a lot of homophobes tend to be repressed guys themselves. At least that's how I interpreted it.

Meant to type repressed *gays*

R45 - judging by DL threads about hygiene, that (lucky for us tops) stereotype went out the window during the pandemic.

Yes, R112. I’m with you on that. Isn’t it sad that hypersensitivity makes some people humorless and hair-triggered?

The way you notice my pupils dilate every time my eyes glance down at the hair peeking out of your collar.

In school I carried my books in the crook of my arm close to my chest like a girl, not dangling at the side of my hip by my fingertips like a boy.

I've been fortunate during Covid: among the worst of it for me has been the postponed London 'Sunday In The Park With George', starring Jake G.

I call everyone by their name. 🎤 drop, thread closed!

Sounds more Aspie than gay, no?

I can carry on a conversation about the late James Hampton.

Despite hating being buried alive by them, I slept in my bed with all my stuffed animals because I didn’t want to hurt any of their feelings for any one of them not being special enough to sleep with me at night.

My name isn't Mike, it's Michael.

R174 I was that little child too, once I learned how to spell it, spelling that name as a little kid fucks up one’s onereading comprehension.

I only listen to classical music or opera.

I used to pretend I was a female teacher growing up and the other students were beneath me.

r176, you sound like a standard issue German to me

I'm a real man's man.

for my 10yr old Birthday party i took my friends to see Thoroughly Modern Millie.

Follow up to being the kid who slept with all his stuffed animals, when I was about four we got a blue tick beagle puppy and I didn’t want him to be lonely his first night in our house, so I snuck down and put about five stuffed animals with him. In the morning it was a scene of pure carnage with fake fur, stuffing and disembodied eyes everywhere.

I want this.

As a 4 year old boy in 1970, I’d try to entertain adults by singing Big Spender.

Fuck all you bitches ! I'm never taking fierce or yas queen out of my vocabulary.

If anyone mentions something about bears, wolves, or otters, I never think it's about the animal.

[quote] As a child I insisted we say serviette instead of napkin, even though they were made of paper.

Or were they papier?

"See that guy over there? He's probably, you know, gay."

Who? Charlie?

Nah!

Starting at age 10, I rearranged the furniture in various rooms in our house semi regularly. My mother started telling her friends that I was going to grow up to be an interior designer.

I ended up arranging dining rooms, living rooms, bedrooms at a few of her friends' houses for a few years. I did not end up a designer.

Best thread in a long while here.

And r81, I will be the Stevie Bud to your David Rose ANY day!

I can compare and contrast the Freed Unit and the Pasternak Unit.

For our school's 5th-grade talent show, I chose to go out with a bang. I, who up to that point had been a painfully shy, sensitive boy, assembled the courage to sing along and shake my ass to Livin' La Vida Loca before a hall of stupefied teachers and parents--although my schoolmates loved it. This performance was complete with a routine I'd choreographed for my friends (all girls).

I date in Europe.

I have a favorite Kylie song.

I was my "Roommates" Ethel to his Lucy.

"I recognize your perfume."

I'm dating Katie Holmes.

R310, one of my friends said she had a favorite fragrance that was the most beautiful thing she ever smelled, but didn’t know what it was called or where she smelled it, or even what it smelled like. I brought her my mother’s Jessica McClintock, & I was right!

R261 what an unoriginal, unfunny, bitchy just for the sake of bitchy thing to say... so really, you’re keeping with the thread topic better than anyone. Good job.

R261 is why they hate us.

When I was ten, Sunday night was bath night. Every other day I had a shower, but on Sunday, I had a bubble bath, in which I soaked for at least an hour while enjoying a drink (soda, in a goblet) and reading the latest Nancy Drew or Hardy Boys book.

LOL. Fascinating R313 that you took it as a negative comment and not just an observation that the quirky real-life stories some people were sharing were funnier than the ones we were inventing.

Though if I were you, I'd wonder why you immediately took it to be a criticism.

I'm wearing this right now

sarong, so wrong

When the International Male catalog started showing up in my family's mailbox when I was 12, I thought it was a gift from the gods.

I own a hat that is not a baseball cap or ski hat.

I used to date Taylor Swift.

I love Judy, Liza, Barbra, Bette, Britney, Cher, and Celine.

I’ve watched “Steel Magnolias” at least a couple dozen times.

The words "let's go antiquing" invoke a positive response from me.

I secretly am delighted when a coworker or acquaintance suffers an awful life tragedy so I can gossip about it with my people.

When I was a little boy I had a crush on POPEYE.

I wanted a baton for my birthday as a kid, finally got one

I love my dildo

I have a BFA in Musical Theatre (Seriously....I do)!

I ALWAYS sit down when I pee.

Not necessarily a sign, R331

I got a tennis racquet as a Christmas present one year. Maybe I was 10 years old and why anyone would buy me anything having to do with sports is still a mystery to me.

BUT...I immediately went to my room to see the best place to hang it on the wall at a jaunty angle. Then I rearranged my bedroom furniture to highlight the optimal wall display.

As a 6-year old, I worshipped the David Cassidy poster on my bedroom wall.

R333 The whole silk purse out of a sow’s ear is another fitting demonstration of this thread, you have a double whammy there sir!

The rape was before my time. I was there for the love story, at that point!

I have AIDS.

R352- This thread topic is NOT Tell Me You're HOMOPHOBIC Without Telling Me You're HOMOPHOBIC

Ina Garten is a close personal friend of mine.

I wanted to do Don't Rain on My Parade at my grade 8 talent show, but the nun's wouldn't let me.

I went to the Whitney Museum but they didn't even have her headpiece from The Bodyguard!

Mom and Dad still make fun of me to this day for listening to Madonna.

[quote] but the nun's wouldn't let me.

That’s because you obviously didn’t complete your studies.

I wrote a 7 page fan letter to an actress no one has ever heard of, but with whom I became obsessed.

I am a same gender loving person.

I'm a cunt at SoulCycle, apparently

My favorite of the X-Men is Dazzler.

I was slapped by a famous actress over wig placement.

My mother let me send flowers to David Cassidy in 1971

I volunteered at the pet adoption fair this past weekend.

I frequently use the word "cunt" to describe other men.

R393 - But actually, “cunt” is an extremely accurate description of most of the gay men I know.

[quote]I wanted to do Don't Rain on My Parade at my grade 8 talent show, but the nun's wouldn't let me.

Doesn't prove you're gay, just proves nuns are assholes.

They probably heard you sing it.

Which Gioconda do you prefer? The Tebaldi, Callas or Milanov?

I always carry my bag of beauty products with me.

Lauren Bacall deserved the Oscar for The Mirror Has Two Faces

When I was very young, my brother gave me and my cousin identical boxes for Christmas. When I asked him what were they were, he said "Joesph and Mary statues. Of course, I gave you Mary!" I was horrified and in the middle of the night switched the gift tags on the presents. Imagine how horrified I was when we opened the boxes in front of everyone and we each got an individually engraved ID bracelet!

You're doing it wrong, R399.

The Evil Queen and Cruella de’vil are my favourite Disney characters

that doesn't mean your gay, it means you frequent the DL

I’m thin, white, single, and neat.

After 'Sound of Music' was released, I dressed up as a nun for Halloween. I sang all the songs while roaming the streets alone at age 8.

I'm a xtian republican always preaching about "family values". I'm also married to an asian woman.

When I was a boy after a shower I would make a make a VAGINA by placing my penis between my legs.

R347, where did you grow up?

EDGE followed GH in most markets.

R423 It was that Edge was the first one I watched as a teen, but it really was an old people’s show and I moved on to the more hip General Hospital and stopped watching Edge.

I have a wide stance in public bathrooms.

Little Miss Dolly Parton, who?

Personally, I always found the "Other Faith," actress McKenna Grace, far more natural-acting -- giving better line readings like a kid would actually talk and not prone to telegraphing lines with exaggerated reactions before she's supposed to like LMDP. .. When the two youngsters were alternating in the role, McKenna was always my preferred "Faith." .. And it doesn't surprise me that she's booking roles left and right.

^^^ Excuse the intrusion at R426. Wrong thread obviously. ^^^

Sorry.

^^😂😂

I love it. I’m reading it and saying ‘WTF?’

LMAAAAAO

Little Miss Dolly Parton was my childhood nickname.

Honestly, that post could actually relate to this thread, because, if you know who "Little Miss Dolly Parton" is, then you're probably gay .. lol!

(Since you watch a daytime soap opera.)

*hugs all the guys in the shipping department after he pulls his truck in which is a daily occurrence*

I choreographed a dance routine to George Michael's "Monkey" when I was 10

"Oops. I tooted!"

I lick my lips before I am photographed.

I'm an avid gamer

I constructed all my childhood holiday costumes as a living expression of double entendres and puns.

my favorite childhood treats all involved phallic food items and deepthroating it without being consciously aware of the significance.

is roughhousing the same as wrestling your best mate, pinning him down and dryhumping him into shuddering submission? did all our games deal with somehow coming in contact with another dude's junk? captain crunch? roshambo? helicopter? dancing erection tricks? towel snapping? erotic hero worship of scantly clad action figures?

on team? Sure, rugby, lacrosse, water polo

or sure, I was the equipment manager... which doubled for a space to eat lunch alone on a cushy bed of jockstraps.

I have lip licking before being photographed R434 beat, I apply a healthy dose of my vintage Bonne Bell Lipsmackers before a picture.

I wanted to be a meteorologist when I was young.

When I was a child I delighted In reading "Can this Marriage be Saved" in my mother's "Ladies Home Journal" and fantasizing about sucking0 cock.

I was The Bachelor.

I just got engaged to Shailene Woodley!

Fabulous thread OP!

I went to an Abba concert and two years later I attended a Village people concert.

I hand-sewed a cushion for my bigwheel and stuffed it with grass. The colors were off and it annoyed me, but you work with what’s available.

I am sexually attracted to men .

I am NOT sexually attracted to women.

Don't stomp your little last season Prada shoes at me, honey.

When I was in basic training in the Army, I gave my cute Drill Sergeant a poem before graduation. Little did I know he would turn it into a cadence and make EVERYONE march to it one day. I just didn't know what to say...

I just don’t know what you were thinking.

I'm a "straight" guy who is saving myself for marriage. I'm in my late 20s and I still haven't found Miss Right

In high school, before VCRs came along, I used to use timers to record the audio of a certain soap opera.

Hi, Colton. R455

Welcome to Datalounge.

But you’re still a douche.

I vacation in San Francisco and Provincetown.

“I’m retiring in Ft. Lauderdale.”

[quote] When I was a child I delighted In reading "Can this Marriage be Saved" in my mother's "Ladies Home Journal" and fantasizing about sucking0 cock.

In retrospect, "Can this Marriage Be Saved" was a PG version of Penthouse Forum.

When addressing me, I insist on people including my middle name.

R461 Sure, sure Jonathan Taylor Thomas.

I am Colton Underwood

"You are not going to wear those shoes are you?"

Gucci loafers were the first detailed item of clothing I learned to draw on my stick figures. My aunt had a pair and I was transfixed.

“Look at all those wigs in Mom’s closet!”

Judy was more than Liza's mother.

I shift my weight, twist my hips and tilt my head ever so slightly for a photograph. But, never for a selfie!

Judy did amphetamines and barbiturates so that Liza could do coke and speedballs.

When I was about 8 years old my mother instructed my brother and I how to do needlepoint.

I enjoyed it.

R100 The one where they were all in white button-downs/white jeans with the ladders, etc.? Great shot.

Cause Lisa with an S goes ssss not zzzz

I co-host with Ripa.

I'm friends with Ripa.

I’m married to Ripa.

Ripa is my mommy.

My name is Roxane and I am EXHAUSTED!

This turquoise belt will look FABulous with my fuchsia gingham shirt!

I retained the information that a co-star left our production to do GYPSY with Dolores Gray.

I never participated in any after-school activities because I had to rush right home to watch The Mike Douglas Show followed by Love American Style and Room 222.

I used to pretend I was a panelist on To Tell the Truth and fill out my ballot. I was also in love with Kitty Carlisle at age 10.

I would have eager anticipation over what color the priest's vestments would be just before he emerged to start mass.

Summer 1977 - Mom and Dad are at work - school is out. I'm 12 years old watching Here's Lucy, Family Feud, Dinah, Days of Our Lives, One Life to Live, Match Game. I will do it again every day for 3 months until after Labor Day when school starts again. Forty years later, I continue to lament that I was never happier in my entire life.

This could also just mean you're Jewish.

Someone should start a new thread titled:

Tell Me You're Well Hung Without Telling Me You're Well Hung

[quote] I used to pretend I was a panelist on To Tell the Truth and fill out my ballot.

What ballot?

The voting card for 1, 2, or 3.

If I didn’t agree with the way my mother grouped furniture, I would sneak in and change it.

The living room was an odd shape with open stair, doorway, closet door, and arch; you couldn’t just line furniture up against a wall.

I entertained family with my impressions of Carol Channing and Barbra Streisand. The first album that I bought with my own money was the OBC of "Applause". I knew the difference between OBC and soundtrack. I loved Peggy Fleming.

R490, I’m rolling because I got the show confused with What’s My Line? which is why I couldn’t think of a ballot.

Lmao. Sorry about that.

Fascinating how many DLers rearranged the furniture as kids.

I, OTOH, was furious when my mother redid our apartment and she and the decorator decided I needed all new furniture and that my bed needed to be against a different wall. (I liked my things and was not a fan of change.)

I did get a full size (vs twin) bed out of it though, a bribe to get me to come around.

My brother, who was gay also, rearranged the furniture in his room when he was about five and moved the dresser in front of the door and then freaked out because he couldn’t get out.

I am a Gaga fan

I watched every episode of Knots Landing. (I wanted to be Abby)

Wanna go for a ride in my Mini Cooper?

Wanna go for a ride on Anderson Cooper?

My favorite tv shows when I was in n Junior high school were- Wonder Woman , The Bionic Woman, Little House On The Prairie and What's Happening!

R205 I once encountered you at the gym, late in the evening.

Rula Lenska fascinates me.

Did you know that the original finale to "Presenting Lily Mars" was a production number called "Paging Mr. Greenbacks"?

I did.

I was a ballet dancer, while may father was POTUS. I'm an atheist now and on my second Italian spouse.

I'm just sizing them up.

R502-By today's standards it looks like a commercial for Hairspray for DRAG QUEENS.

I just got a new roommate for one bedroom apartment.

^^And I'm 56

My favorite plaything was Colorforms (tm). I also loved chewing on them.

OMG!!!!!

"Let me suck you Bro. No Homo!!"

When I was around 8, our family went on vacation to a fancy Miami Beach hotel. While the family was at the pool, I had to stay in the room because 'The Red Shoes' was on tv!

^^Ha, that's a good one. If you're old enough to remember the debacle when NBC pre-empted the end of a Jets-Raiders game with the tv movie "Heidi", you'd be me there asking what's the fuss about..

Throughout my early childhood, my secret favorite show was Sabrina the Teenage Witch (first time reruns, 2003?). I think that was definitely one for the gays. Something totally changed about me the first time I was explained circumcision. The topic was brought on by fucking Desperate Housewives. My mother ruined me!

I anchor World News Tonight on ABC!

What a classic DL thread - and with 515 posts, no less!

I used to rub lemons on my elbows after I saw Babs do it in one of those "Funny" girl/lady movies. I never knew why,

I couldn’t stop singing the Big Spender number and prancing around my room after watching the show.

A cast recording is NOT a soundtrack!

I wanted to come to NYC and shop at Balducci’s after seeing Barbara Walters interview Cher shopping there during one of her Oscar interview specials.

Balducci’s is Citarella now.

And Cher no longer lives above Tower Records, which is no longer in existence either.

R517 Lemons on elbows is one of those old-timey, folk remedies meant to lighten elbow skin and used by people who have naturally dark skin in that area, thinking it makes them look like they've got dirty elbows.

R523- Didn't OUR GAY GODESS Joan Crawford in Mommie Dearest rub lemon on her elbows whilst chastising little Christina for calling her dolls BAD misbehaving children.

My favorite movie as a kid was "Mame" with Lucille Ball. I would dance and sing all the numbers.

R524, Um, yes.

Card-carrying member of the International Petula Clark Society...or the IPCS as we fans call it :)

For Christmas when I was eight, I asked for (and got) an Easy Bake Oven.

One one of my favorite songs is Rainiy Days And Mondays by the Carpenters.

I've never had the slightest interest in sports.

One month after my high school graduation, I went to see Elizabeth Taylor on Broadway. She was in “The Little Foxes.” I was absolutely thrilled to see her. It’s a cherished memory, as she’s my favorite movie star. Two months later, I entered college as a Theatre Arts major.

R525. I think you are the only one who saw that movie twice. Gays included.

So, what did you think of the Oscars this year?

I read and post on Data Lounge.

As a small boy in the 1980s, I can still remember dancing my little heart out by the TV right along with the Solid Gold Dancers. Mimicking every shake & shimmy!

My Mom & siblings gave me the oddest looks...............

*still staring at other guys' crotches while his "girlfriend" i.e. fleshjack that inconveniently thinks and speaks is buying some new clothes*

Sorry, what?

R531 By chance was it her performance on Saturday evening, the 4th of July, 1981?

I remember the date because I met my husband later that evening after the show.

We've been together longer than all eight of [italic]la Liz's[/italic] marriages combined.

My celebrity crush is Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada.

I listen to the original Broadway cast recording of My Fair Lady to cheer myself up. No one has a voice like Julie Andrews.

I pitched a fit when my parents chose the Ford LTD with the vinyl interior and roll-down windows and not the one with the velour interior and power windows.

I'll have a tea, please,

I like to wander down to my local open-air grocery market and shop for fruit and veg while listening to the Beauty and the Beast soundtrack.

R456, was it OLTL or AW?

I used to have a purple coin purse that I would pull out when dispensing change. Even my partner thought that was gay!

I used to tell people how much I wanted to fuck Angela Lansbury and I admired her "Positive moves" exercise video.

I'm the future King of England.
