The oldest gay men I've ever seen

All over the world there are and always have been elderly spinster Aunts who are quietly sharing their house with their life-long friend - “to save money”. The newspapers often report on the death of old war heroes - “He never married”.

I’m thinking that someone who is familiar with the rich spectrum of human sexuality should not be too surprised that the sexuality in question is a lifelong thing.

Of course, it won’t be easy to find him in his entirety. As this page states:

I take it the OP has seen any of the X-Men movies? Or Lord of the Rings?

I gotta tell ya, I was passing thru the Bucknell University campus a week or so ago, and stopped into a local restaurant/bar. I was seated near a table of about 12 faculty and/or grad students…every last friggn one of them but one drinking wine or booze.

Where was the one and only beer glass? In front of the archetypal broad-beamed, crew-cut, muu-muu-and-wooden beads women’s studies professor.

I’m trying to convince my lady to change the wording on one of her A & F shirts to read

ABERCROMFIE AND BITCH

so I can wear it but she refuses to and says she would never go out in public with me if I wore it.

Now listen up everybody: Every sitting man who ever crosses his legs, one over the other, is GAY! No exceptions. Also, those who wear cologne.
BE ON YOUR GUARD, or the lookout, whatever floats your boat.

You mean I’m like this for life??? Oh well, guess I best hang on to da squeeze then. He ain’t any more likely to change than me, I guess.

Come to papa big boy. :wink:

The extended period of responsible adulthood beforehand I’m not so sure about, but I’m quite looking forward to my old queen years. My family never loses their faculties - all of my grandparents lived or have lived to their 80s sharp as a tack - so I plan to be around quite some time to irritate everyone.

I plan to surround myself with adoring young muffins to hear my war stories from back before there was a cure and when there were still such a thing as fundamentalists. In gratitude they will do all my housework stripped to the waist. There will be tea and scones in the sunroom afterward.

Must be one of those Canadian euphemisms…

Heh. If it weren’t for your Significant Acronym and the four states between us, I’d take you up on that offer, for a weekend anyway… :wink:

I was going to say you were being too optimistic, and then I noticed that your location wasn’t in America.

Is there some way of crossing you legs that DOESN’T involve putting one over the other?

I’ve heard it asserted that playing the organ –the PIPE organ, ok? – contributes to gayitude. Supposedly you need to have your thighs pressed together to work the pedals properly.

Well, big guy, who’s sayin’ the Significant Acronym (I love it!) and I wouldn’t make it a weekend you’d never forget? :wink:

Shamless flirting in a MPSIMS thread. What is this world coming to!

Maybe this isn’t exactly crossing the legs, but most guys sit with one leg down and the other laid over it at a 90 degree angle. This is a horribly uninformative and confusing description of the posture that I’m referring to, but you’d know it if you saw it. Let me see if I can find an image…

OKAY - complete change of subject, but I need to say this. I did a Google image search for the word “sitting” - and the very second image displayed is of an attractive woman sitting naked on a bed with a sheet obscuring her…naughty areas. The url? gallery.opalcat.com/gallery. (Might not be safe for work, although no explicit parts are shown.)

Is this the OpalCat of the SDMB? I can’t see there being another one.

If so - you’re hot.

Sorry to take a very straight detour here. Carry on with “teh gay.”

About the pipe organ - I have a '70s vintage Kimball Entertainer electronic organ, which I sometimes play, and I don’t find that keeping your thighs pressed together is beneficial to being able to reach the full range of foot pedals. So I call BS on the assertion that it makes you gay, simply beacause that doesn’t sound like the proper playing procedure to me.

Oh, sorry, it was a Yahoo image search. My bad.

That’s our Opal, all right.

Business as usual, then…

Seriously, if supervenusfreak and I are ever down that way again (we had a 45-minute stop at Atlanta-Hartfield when we were on our way to Houston in September), we’re going to HAVE to get together for dinner, at least.

At least! Course Etlanner’s still three hours from where I am, but for the right people… :wink:

How about a Korean guy with a southern accent.

Am I alone in thinking that pizzabrat’s response to what I wrote is overly snippy, and personally insulting?

This really needs to be one of those times where a grown man can appreciate that while most people might get the playful nature of his observation, that some people live to be offended, and just move on. She’s a brat after all, what do you expect?
