Do you really think about someone being hetero or bi or gay or whatever when you talk to them for 30 seconds (how do you even notice)? Especially a stranger that you never see again?
- AlecSchueler 4y agoIf I'm speaking to a strange woman then I'm very much aware, yes, of all the previous bad experiences she's statistically likely to have had with strange men and I'll do my best to avoid adding to her rightful discomfort.
- nmz 4y agoSo you either don't talk to women, or you do so willingly knowing it causes them discomfort.
- AlecSchueler 4y agoYes I speak with women knowing that there's a high chance of causing discomfort and take what efforts I can to minimise that.
- Broken_Hippo 4y agoIf I find them attractive, sure, but that might just be because I'm bi. It doesn't affect what I say to them, though.
- SoftTalker 4y agoSome people do immediately project a gay vibe just by stereotypical mannerisms. Yeah I know that isn't always a reliable indicator, but it's something I notice. Beyond thinking "he's probably gay" it's not something I think about any more than "he has brown hair" or "she is Japanese" it's just a characteristic of the person that I notice.
