Test your gaydar

Wow! I took the test three times, and it isn’t a fluke: I scored 13, 14 and 15 out of 20. I was better at guys then girls, which makes sense because I’m a straight female and I do have some gay men friends, but no gay women. But overall, I suck.

The ones with perfect gaydar, what gives it away?

I’m more likely to think a guy is gay (I’m not talking pink feather boa’s here) if
-he has got a piercing, but no other macho parafernalia.
-he has very, very short cropped hair and otherwise looks very groomed;
-he has NOT got a goatee (I believe only straight guys were goatees)
-he looks very gentle
-he poses for the camera like he wants to be attractive (like many straight women do ).

But, obviously, I don’t know what I’m talking about.

85%

I was flat out guessing at about 3/4 of them though.

50% I got every guy right and none of the girls.

I got 80% and was better at recognizing girls. I based my guesses on hair, mostly.

*You personally got 19 of the 20 people correct and were better at recognizing girls than guys. Overall, you guessed better than 98% of all test takers. *

Woohoo! I totally rock at this game! I completely and utterly kick ass!! I…think I’ll stop being excited about having good gaydar…

uh, Hal, that was The Western Stock Show site…

Fag hag = I got 19/20. See, Madge, I really was soaking in it.

:wink:

I know a gentleman with a goatee who is a screaming faggot. His goatee is very chic styled, almost like a 19th-century impériale. But then, he’s a Desi from England, so who knows…

I’m a bi guy with a goatee, and until two weeks ago, my boyfriend had one, too. I’m trying to get him to grow it back. He looks very hot with it. (He’s hot without it, of course, but… less so.)

Do they intentionally use straight people who “look gay” and vice versa to make it harder? Because several times I assumed they might have and went against my instinct. One way or another, I got 75%

I got 60%, better at guys, and, counting the rainbow flag and the cross-bearer in the girls section as gimmes, that puts me at worse than 50% on identifying average straight girls.

That might explain some things.

I scored 80% 16/20 by just choosing the more vulnerable-looking guy and the girl with the shortest hairstyle.

I was looking more at which guy was better dressed.

My results:

“You personally got 17 of the 20 people correct and were better at recognizing girls than guys. Overall, you guessed better than 94% of all test takers.”

Can I say the same thing? What does it mean, the fact that you are gay and I am not? I’d be curious to see how our individual choices compared.

86% and I’m a straight Christian girl!

Guess that comes from living near Vancouver and having a bunch of Gay friends and co-workers. Well, and too much “Will and Grace!”

I got 40%, and the test said I’d be better off guessing…which is odd, because I was guessing.

Generally, I figure if someone wants me to know if they’re gay, they’ll tell me. Otherwise, I’ll just remain totally clueless…in the 2nd percentile.

The swamps are full of bears. Bears who like to romp through the swamps cavorting gaily with one another.

Well. That explains why I would sometimes hear shouts of “Go Bear, GO!” back when I used to live in Southeast Georgia. Imagine, all this time I thought it was my fellow soldiers growling at me when we were doing field exercises in the swamp, when really it was bears!

Are you sure you didn’t hear “Come Bear, COME!”? :smiley:
