Considering it's happened more than once in my life and I wasn't offended. I don't see that changing lol. I just find it odd when someone does. The only time I kind of understood is when it was me, a female friend and a gay guy friend of mine hanging out at a bar and the girl left to the bathroom multiple times that night. So me and Cam were chatting people up a lot and he is very obviously gay. I put some level of care into my appearance, so in that situation I could see how someone might think that because I'd be in the realm of believability as the masculine gay guy in the couple xD.
Not really, people think all kinds of things. Sadly our society is full of people with these defects, nothing is being done to protect society from this and nothing is being done to find any kind of treatment or prevention. Instead Marxists are promoting this behavior as normal as way of getting homosexuals and others to fight for their cause. It's all a sorry mess right now and "LGBT" are everywhere. Being mistaken for one isn't surprising especially given the number of Marxist people who can't really sense reality in the first place.
No not really. People confuse my sexuality all the time. I’m straight, but people often times assume I’m gay or bi. I completely understand why they jump to that conclusion. I hang out with dudes, and I wear boys clothes a lot, and I’m typically very open minded and adventurous when it comes to most things so I think everyone just assumes that I’m a dyke. But I’m just straight.
I was offended when these ex friends of mine knew I wasn't gay I mean I hooked up with a guy with them around, and yet the kept saying I should be gay and how much better it would be I couldn't imagine touching a women like ever I think it's gross and yet they kept on and on about it

I don't have that kind of time to be offended!
I used to get a lot of that when I was a teenager. I was very withdrawn, and didn't even talk to girls, because I simply didn't know what to say to them. Everybody assumed I was a closet gay, or something. Even if I told them I wasn't, they just wouldn't believe me. I used to get called 'faggot' or 'fairy boy'. Years later, I did a lot of growing up, broke out of a lot of shells, and I've been married for over 30 years. We have two grown children. If anyone calls me gay now, I really wouldn't care.
I wouldn't be offended unless maybe they continued to suggest it or hit on me after I correct them. Then either they think I'm a liar or know I'm not attracted to them and still think it's fine to try and push me. I've only had that happen once though, and I think they only kept going because their friends were with them and I was by myself. When one of my friends from work who happened to be heading home at that time cut in with a lot more colorful language than I'd been using, they finally backed off. I didn't like it, and I was fairly offended by the time it was over because of their language and how they kept getting more aggressive about it. But if you actually just back off when told you were mistaken then I see no reason to be offended by that.
I wouldn't be offended. I would be confused at first, and if the person kept on saying it then it becomes annoying. One of my co-workers is hell bent on me and one of my male bosses both being gay. Not with each other, but individually gay. Yet, at the same time, this same co-worker swears that I am in love with a woman we both know. And I'm like, so, if I'm gay how can I be in love with so-and-so? And she's like you can be both. I said, "No, that would make me bi not gay... I'm not bi either, but you can't go around swearing up and down that I'm gay and in the same breath swear up and down that I am in love with a woman."
People have all kinds of ideas about how "straight" people should act or how "gay" or "bi" or "trans" people should act. You never know how someone was raised or what they base their opinions on. You might ask them why they thought so and correct them on their misapprehension.
If someone I didn't like said this, then it would be justification for not liking them, if someone I liked said it, it could lead to an interesting conversation, best of all if it was a female friend who would love to watch her guy get sucked off by another guy, maybe that sounds weird but at 56 years young I'm well past worrying about what others think, and if it's not premature Merry Christmas!!!
I literally won't be offended if someone thinks I'm into the opposite of my sexual preference. But I would be curious about what makes them think that.
And it would been different if someone was trying to roast meh. I literally won't take anything they would say including my sexuality.
: )
Well I love men. On top of that I only love the manliest alpha men, you know cavemen. I’ve not problem being with a chauvinist, I want a man who makes me feel dainty and feminine. My biggest turn off is a bit of femininity in men. If someone assumed I liked women I’d be super shocked.
I mean if your a straight male but everyone thinks yout gay, including straight women, it kind of ruins your chances of asking them out since the expectation of you being attracted to them never arises and therefor they may never develope the same feelings for you.
I've been through this. I'm 29 and a kissless virgin with no more desire to find a girl in my life. So people (even my parents) have thought I was gay. I was angry and disgusted at first but grew to not care. Think what you want. I know who I am and that's what matters.
No but I've had people think I had a foot fetish. I fixed that shit quick man feet are nasty. I told a girl to stop calling me daddy cause it's not my thing I think of my daddy and it doesn't turn me in... she responded with nudes in which they did the trick
Took a second to digest basically if someone thought I was gay - Nah, life is too short to get caught up in things like that - Possibly might be interested as to why they thought it for pure curiosity but absolutely no offence.
Wouldn't really care. Even now when people here or wherever may call me gay, I just shrug and say "It isn't a crime. I didn't realise it was so bad to be gay."
Not like these people know me or anything.
A bit... im tall and slim, most times there are petite girls who think im into them, but im into fat chicks... by the way, if you see me outside in a club or bar, make sure there isn't a band playing there, because, if, im just there for the music and have no interest in flirting or so...
When I was younger, kids at school thought I was gay for some reason. At the time i would be so worried and scared about that, but today if someone assumed I was gay i wouldn't care too much. I'd just correct them mayhe ask them what made them come to that conclusion and go about my day
I select "other" and here's why:
All my life I have been mistaken for a female. I've never understood it, and it makes no sense to me.
As such, if I wasn't being accused of being female, I was being accused, just as falsely, of having a preference for men.
That being said, I am a heterosexual man. I prefer women, exclusively.
I get it quite frequently. I'm straight, but often taken for gay. One gay friend said I fly in under the gaydar. I've concluded that because I'm fairly secure in myself I don't make the effort to be macho that insecure guys do. I am certainly not offended, especially when they buy me drinks in pubs 😉
Interestingly, it doesn't seem to be a problem for women either. If anything, it makes them more relaxed when we start chatting.
If someone thought I take care of myself so good I'm gay I would be proud of myself because I have no motivation in my looks as far as clothes and hair so I'd be damn proud of myself
I wouldn't be offended if someone liked me of a different orientation. It's a compliment I wouldn't reciprocate.
Guys have thought I've been gay or hoped I was quite a few times probably because I have a very young look and at times I've had longer hair.
I don't care, at least I know there are some that find me attractive :)
