Yeah, The gay label . It's used so often when people don't understand someone being different than they are.
I even struggled with the thought that I might be gay, but then I realized that I wasn't attracted to men.
When I was younger and hit this period of denial, I let my facial hair grow a bit to look more masculin. One day I decided that I was going to shave it off. The next day when I went to work, The first reaction from the guys I worked with, was " you look like you're queer, Come here and get on your knees"

as they pretended to unzip their flys.
Now the comments from the girls was somewhat different. Their comments were more like" You look kind of girlish, gee, I wish I had your curly hair" Also

So this just goes to show how sexes look a you differently and put a label on you.
Not long ago there was a documentary on the movie channel called "Being Gay in the Seventies" I watched with interest as all these gay men talked about their life style. Now, having watched this film, there is absolutly nothing that we have in common with these people that could give someone the impression that we are gay.
Yes! They are very attracted to masculinity because most of them looked more masculin than I ever did or do.
