I'm gay, and I'm very happy to be gay, but I don't really get what the term "gay" is about. When I was younger, I was straight, but then I met a guy who was a person I happened to fall in love with, and that's when I realized what I was all about. I don't really know what "gay" means other than that I am same-sex attracted, because I'm so much more as a person than just a sexual orientation. For example, I have two degrees in music theory and a masters in English, and have spent many years as a filmmaker, and a writer. So I don't really define myself through my sexual behavior, those some males do and I have no problem with that, to each his own is what I say.
Oh you poor baby. You remind me of my college roommate junior year, everyone knew he was gay except him.
Your fake sympathy is misplaced and misguided, to no surprise. I'm not poor, and I'm not even all that interested in you or your comments. But, I have said I'm gay over and over again and I march in every Pride parade - it's hardly a secret, I'm very proud of who I am. If I seem high and mighty, it's only because I am. I am the great I am - I am the greatest person to ever exist!
