I think this man represents the "flamboyant gays"! His name is Vincent Mc Doom and he was a model.

He looks disgusting! There's a lot of those kind though. Many of the gays who work in the cosmetic industry wear makeup, and walk and talk just like women, and even seem to take on the shape of a woman. They get real skinny and un-muscular, and it almost seems as if they start to look like women.

I mentioned earlier that lots of homosexuals wish they were the opposite sex. They feel like the opposite sex, trapped in a man/woman's body, which is why they resort to dressing like the opposite sex, or imitating their attributes. The typical Lesbian, or "butch" lesbian wears mannish clothing, cuts her hair short, and walks and talks like a man. And it's just the opposite for gay men. They do everything they can to appear to be women. If that's not wanting to be the opposite sex, then I don't know what is! So my point was true. It's not just transsexual people who feel that way, but many homosexuals do as well.

People who feel this way are not homosexuals as such; they are transpersons. It's not the same thing. A female-to-male transperson who is attracted to women, for example, would consider himself to be heterosexual, not homosexual.

I don't know if Vincent McDoom is actually a male-to-female transperson (probably not, if he still calls himself Vincent), or whether he's just a male-to-female transvestite.

Not neccesarily. There are lots of homosexuals who walk and talk like women, and are very feminine. In fact, that's considered the 'typical' homosexual here. But they are by no means, transgender or anything like that. And many of them frequently claim that they've always felt like women, and cite there feminine tendencies all the way back to early childhood, when they would play with dolls instead of Tonka toy trucks.

How do women walk and talk then?

Define 'feminine'.

I think I know what you mean. But this is not the same as actually wanting to be of the opposite gender.

If a biological male has 'always felt like a woman', then he is transgendered — that's what being transgendered is.

When I was a child, I played mainly with dolls, liked dressing up as a woman, and often wore purple cardigans. But that does not mean that I actually want to be a woman.

Nah, Porthos. Transexuals are different from homosexuals, even if some of the behaviors are similar. And most transvestites are actually heterosexual men -- they just get off on wearing women's clothes. When you are aroused by normally non-sexual items or behaviors, that's called a paraphilia -- it doesn't correllate with sexual orientation, though. There are people who get off on shoes, dressing up like stuffed animals, bondage, dressing up like (and being treated like) babies -- complete with being diapered. Those things are separate from their orientation as a heterosexual or a homosexual. (Read the back section of Penthouse sometime. It's a real eye-opener!)

The middle one looks more like a chimp than a man if you ask me lmao and the one next to him on the left doesn't look convinced he should even be there.

It's bloody obvious they've been asked to put their thumbs in their jeans. Sorry I've slagged off your hunks there André.

Yeah, the middle one is just kind of goofy looking, and definitely suffering from short man syndrome.

I ran into an old beau last night on my way to The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, and he introduced me to his boyfriend.  Now that hit me like a ton of bricks because I wouldn't have ever suspected anything of the sort.  And believe me, my gaydar is well tuned!    And to think that the sex was so good...

When I was in my 20s, I ran into a former boyfriend in another city.  He was with another guy, and although the situation didn't look necessarily romantic, that possibility crossed my mind.  Didn't bother me, though.

All I can say from reading this thread is that you guys like your guys a lot more muscular than I do...  I liked toned - like swimmers ;)

Nah, I like thin guys. I actually find the idea of sleeping with a guy that was significantly more muscular than me a bit scary.

Mmm. Me likes swimmer bodies.

I'm not a big fan of the over-muscled, anabolically-enhanced look myself.  And I actually don't mind a little gut and love handles on a man... what's important is that he treats me right.

I find that many women go for the thinner guys actually, contrary to the seemingly widespread stereotype of girls liking the muscle-bound men.  What's even stranger is that I find that is usually only guys who believe and perpetuate that myth.

If he's got bigger breasts than me, it's a no-go.
