I used to work for Chris as a projectionist at a local theater. I had no idea he was gay for the first few months I worked for him. One day he and some of the other assistant managers decided to watch their favorite trailer reels that they kept in the booth. After I started the projector for them I watched a few of the trailers and it became obvious after the first two or three played. Many of them were gay interest films and that was when I realized he was probably gay. If I hadn't watched those trailers I would have still been ignorant of the fact that he is gay until reading this thread. Since it shouldn't have any effect on how he does his job I don't see why it matters.  |  IP: Logged Robert Burtcher Expert Film Handler Posts: 194 From: Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Registered: Jun 2005 posted 09-11-2006 07:21 AM                     Just for the record: Queer as a 3-dollar bill here. I don't know why, I just like that phrase. It makes me titter with glee. *glee* My sexuality doesn't really come up all that much at work, and I rather like it that way. I mean, I'll be open about it if someone asks, and I don't censor myself when asking for time off or talking with my coworkers (like when I took time off to go visit my boyfriend)... but I don't go around announcing it to everyone. I actually got kind of angry the other day at one of my coworkers... He's openly gay and was talking with a couple of the new hires, and as I walked by, I overheard him tell them I was "like him". I don't care if people know, just I'd rather them find out from me, instead of someone telling a brand-new coworker I haven't even spoken to that I'm gay.  |  IP: Logged Dave Williams Wet nipple scene Posts: 1836 From: Salt Lake City, UT, USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 09-13-2006 05:38 AM                        Ok, first of all, know that I am not gay, but often I would be hard pressed to prove it. Here is why... I root for football teams based upon the coordination and coloring of their uniforms. I love to shop. I don't mean for tools, I mean things like linens and drapes. Most women that are considered on the beautiful side I could never muster up enough "umph" to do anything with that. I coordinate my outfits and never wear the same set more than once every two weeks. It takes me hours to size up a single shirt with slacks before purchase at the store. I flip out my pinky when I drink. I find many different men attractive. I cuddle after sex. I snuggle every other time. I coordinate my wifes outfits. Almost all of my friends are either gay men or straight women. I voted for George Bush because his ties match so well with his shoes. Everyone at work gives me a hard time, in a humorous way. I have been hit on so many times, and I am always flattered. All of that aside, I am most definately Hetero. One of my best friends says it just comes with being raised by my mother as my dad was military and out of the country alot as I grew up. Oh yeah, my wife is going into the Army as soon as she wraps up her Masters degree. It's all backwards, but I just love it. I used to think it would have been a lot easier if I was just gay, but no matter how cute the guy is, I just can't go there. Just love the boobies!

Now I wonder about you... You're such an effeminate guy. Sure is nice the way guys dont get beaten alive (much) anymore. When I was out of high school back in the 1800's, if they even THOUGHT you could be 'that way,' you'd get the shit beat out of you. I had to learn to fight, or die. I chose to live.

While you may not like stereotypes...Most if not all have their basis in reality...hence they are stereotypes, not absolutes.  |  IP: Logged Dave Williams Wet nipple scene Posts: 1836 From: Salt Lake City, UT, USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 09-14-2006 04:51 AM                        quote: Phil Hill Thanks Dave for perpetuating and promoting stereotypes of gay people in your post. And here I have blown my best chance at Mr. Snuggly Bear! For the record I grew up in a household where homosexuality was decried as a sin, with "so called" freinds that went out on weekends to beat up "faggots". This was all I was ever introduced too. Yet I was smart enough to know that there was just something wrong with this way of thinking and behaving. Men were tought to play with trucks and guns and wear "manly" clothes and beat up fags and rape women. Any dissent was not tolerated, and anyone with a different point of view would be tortured and beaten. Sometimes even by their own family. I can't tell you if all of that forced me into a life of boobie worship or not, however I absolutely love that society in many parts of our country has accepted the less "manly" traits of drinking a beer like it was a cup of tea, shopping for drapes instead of curtains, wearing clothes that look good instead of dressing like a pig, and so on. I learned to accept my own iffeminite traits, and even my own admiration of the human body, regardless of gender. 25 years ago that would have gotten me left for dead, yes right here even in Utah. But now it is seen as kitchy and cute. As far as perpetuation goes, give me a break! I am sick to death of "stereotype" as much as I am sick of "synergy"! It's an easy word to take a defense where none was warranted because no attack occurred. When one of my co-workers says to me "what is with you italians and moving your arms around so much?", I don't get all bent out of shape and claim some kind of anything. I laugh and run with it, because they were trying to connect with me, not insult me. I never intended to insult anyone with my post, and really I do apologize if it yanked your chain in any one direction or another. And here I was thinking that you were a rational thinker 3-4 percent of the time. My existance is crushed.  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia.

[Frown] [fu] And thank you for perpetuatin the stereotype of crotchety old white guys. I hope to be an old white guy one day, but I would sooner die than be crotchety. Gay or straight, a stick in the mud is a stick in the mud. Good friends, good luck, and good life to us all. Let none of us piss on another's parade.  |  IP: Logged Bruce McGee Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1776 From: Asheville, NC USA... Nowhere in Particular. Registered: Aug 1999 posted 09-14-2006 08:44 AM                     I am a man. I play with trucks. I have guns. I can work on anything mechanical. I can fix dead air conditioning systems on a hot day. Fix your TV when your kids are screaming. Replace a light switch. The list goes forever on... There are MANY women in the world that yank my chain with their natural beauty, not this Hollywood crap. I also prefer MEN. Men that know who they are. Not these guys that hide under their so-called wives shadows. Men. Not a man who wears a dress, or acts stereotypically swishy. Yeah, Out at work. I'm just MYSELF. Thats it. My real friends at work, and in real life, like me for who I am. Not what I do. Thanks for the wake-up email, P.H.
