Did you fem-up after you came out?

Masc ? Lol on DL where bitchy queens find their tribe

As of now 83% “MASC”

You cunts are delusional with zero self awareness

Based on the verbal abuse I took as a teen, it seems everyone knew I was gay before I would admit it to myself. However, I’m pretty sure this had to do with gay-voice (I would hear myself on tape at the time and cringe). So, would I fall under androgynous?

You bitches are delusional or liars.

It's just a phase one goes through.

Just like this current cross-dressing fad.

You need to remove all your on-line femmy presence before you go out to a get a job.

Do I Sound Gay?

O% Super Femme🙄

😂😂🤣😆

The most masculine gay guys tend to opt out of gay culture. Gay culture emasculates men, even nongay men

[quote] Gay culture emasculates men

Yes and current 'Gay culture' is emasculating gay men over 40. Current 'Gay culture' is girly, faddy and dumb.

Came out very early, was always a bit loose in my behaviors (creative, friendly), but most people found me ambiguous. I'd have straight friends and classmates that you'd guess based on stereotypes, long before considering me as the gay one.

But I was never macho or emotionless etc. Pegged more as a nerd than a gay boy, and this changed only a little over time. I have facial features and expressions that'd make one think I'm just a casually masculine guy, but only emphasis on the casually. People with gaydar would sus me out easily because they'd know what to look for and I rarely hid myself, I just wasn't glaring, or making a lot of effeminate gestures.

Didn't have much of gay culture to attach to in my teens, living rural, but I had a boyfriend who explored that of himself. Afterwards I attached more to a few friends (most straight) and video gaming than the local gay scene. However, over the last decade I've picked up some pretty fem gay friends, though they're more on my periphery, but I'm sure they've affected me.

But anyway, I didn't make some big change after coming out. I'm fine if people do though, as long as it doesn't seem to be exclusively put on to fit some false expectations.

[quote] false expectations.

Too many expectations in a community of exhibitionistic Instagrammers.

I was a daring and fabulous little transvestite in the pre-stonewall sixties (don't know how I survived), with veiled hats and gloves and pearls and all, but I kind of grew out of it. I'm comfortable with my gender now, although I do still collect vintage jewelry I don't wear it, and I draw-on my eyebrows, big and masculine, my homage to Joan Crawford.

I am not mean or derogatory towaRd nonmasculine men, but gay culture does a disservice by pushing the notion that being a gay men means being nonmasculine. There is little depiction of conventionally masculine men who happen to be in gay culture itself. Drag queens, diva worship, gender queer, Bravo shows, girlfriend talk, Femboys, and finger snapping sassiness are exalted as core to Gay identity, but what do masculine men have in the community?

Sharing penises in private.

The gay men on DL are androgynous, femme, and super femme. Masc and super masc men don't even know about DL.
