[QUOTE=Cat Fight] That there’s your problem. Deny deny deny. [/QUOTE] Good point actually. You either act really flaming, or you continually deny it while plastering your cubicle with _300_ posters and get really testy with people who suggest that’s sorta gay. Keep telling people you **hate** being labeled. Everyone will think you’re gay in no time. ---

When you see men who are buff (or even not buff), go up to them and say, “My, have you been working out?,” and squeeze/touch their bicep/chest, etc. while saying it. ---
