Hey! I’m left handed and I’m not gay!
Maybe there is something I should know. Then again, all the google ads are about eating disorders and anorexia.
Is there a link? Am I really a left-handed, anorexic HOMO-sex-U-al?

I’m left-handed, and so far I’ve managed to stave off catching Teh Ghey. But then I’ve never accepted rides from strange men – _well_, there was that _one_ time, but I swear he never touched me and I covered my mouth to filter out Teh Ghey Germs – so maybe that’s why. I’m also a right-handed hitter in baseball, so maybe that helps confer a level of immunity, yeah?
Oop. Gotta go. There’s a man with a suspiciously swishy gait passing by the window.

I haven’t watched the linked video, but this whole thread had me thinking of the old thread on [free-range homosexuals.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=133327&highlight=free+range+homosexual)

Am I the only one that thought the first gay man looked a good bit like John Waters? Cause that just made it all the funnier for me.

Back in the day, I think the first gay man _usually_ looked like John Waters. 😃

Nice to see us HomoSexuals were snappy dressers even back then… I’m going to give them the benefit of the doubt that they weren’t pedophiles… Maybe they were just taking little Jimmy away to work on his fashion sense…
“Jimmy, remember, shave DOWN, not up… We have to do something about that hair… What did you put in it? Pomade? Oh my God, no!.. and remember Jimmy, chinos are the new black”

I was _shown_ one of these films in health class, back around 1970 or.

I did not know that THE HOMOSEXUALS were stalking young boys everywhere in the 50’s. Hunh. You learn something every day.

Thinking about the actually filming:
“So honey, how did the audition go?”
“Uh, great - I got the part.”
“Fantastic! So what role did you get?”
“Uh…I drive a car and take a kid fishing.”
“Great! I will tell everyone at the church group! Maybe we can all see the film together.”
“About that…”

Heh - can you imagine the direction?

Kids, don’t _ever_ take piano lessons from a man, go clothes shopping with him, or go over to hear his collection of Broadway cast albums. You could end up trading your life for faaabulousness.
And don’t you worry about Liberace. He’s an expensively paid TV entertainer who loves his mom, so he’s A-OK.

Now now. Nothing of the sort was mentioned or implied.
Homosexuals are nice to you, pat you on the shoulder or head, buy you something to eat, then murder you.
That’s all.

Always possible. Do you feel the urge to go fishing? Play basketball? Offer hitchhikers a ride home? Then you might just…teh gay.
At least, that’s what I learned from the video. 😃
