10 Signs He's Gay ...

Do you risk it all and ask him, or keep quiet and try and forget about it?

Bathroom Rituals...

While it might be stereotypical, it’s often true! Watch how meticulous he is with his grooming, and see what products he owns. While it’s good that he makes an effort, if he takes two hours to get ready he’s taken it a bit far! If he’s got more products than you and a huger shoe collection, that’s a big hint too!

***

It's all in his styling choices! Obsessing over the latest fashion trends might be his thing—if his magazines are brimming with runway shows rather than sports recaps, take note. And it's one thing to be tidy, but if he's ironing his jeans and aligning his shirts by color in the closet, he's showing a level of meticulousness that's worth pondering. Let's not forget, an absolute tell-tale sign is his reaction to your outfits—sarcastic remarks might just be playful banter, but if he's providing fashion advice with the expertise of a seasoned stylist... it's an eyebrow-raiser for sure!

His Idols...

Gay men often idolize people who have elaborate, over the top lifestyles. I’ve never met a gay man who hasn’t loved Cher, Whitney Houston and Paul O’Grady! If your man loves divas, or watching famous “out” men such as Graham Norton, he might be gay.

***

Growing up, many gay men find inspiration in stars who embody confidence and self-acceptance. It's not just about the glamorous lifestyles; these figures often represent freedom and authenticity. Madonna and Lady Gaga, for instance, are more than entertainers. They are symbols of self-expression and resilience. If your guy has a special admiration for such icons, it could be more than just a taste for pop culture. These stars often carry a deeper meaning for the LGBTQ+ community, reflecting ideals of living one's truth boldly and unapologetically.

His Favorite TV Shows

Again, this is a stereotype that’s always proven true for me! Gay men often love watching stereotypical “female” programmes, such as beauty pageants, that reinforce the importance of beauty and glamour. He might also love over the top makeover shows, and big award shows such as the Grammys.

***

Absolutely, Project Runway and RuPaul's Drag Race are practically staples! The drama, the fashion, the flair—it's all there and often beloved. Don't forget the sitcoms with strong LGBTQ+ characters or unapologetically gay icons. Shows like Will & Grace and Queer Eye provide not only entertainment but also a sense of identity and community. It's about the love for narratives that embrace diversity and vibrant characters who are unafraid to be themselves. And it's not just about the content; it’s the camaraderie when watching with friends that really seals the deal.

His Eyes...

Who does he look at when you are out? Do his eyes jump from man to man, does he focus on hot men or does he not look at anyone at all? Like it or not, men have wandering eyes but a straight man will look at other women, even subconsciously. If he makes more eye contact with men, he’s probably more interested in them...

***

In addition to his eyes, there are other signs that may indicate a man is gay. For example, his body language may be more expressive when around men than women. He may also have a more flamboyant style of dress, or a preference for colors and patterns that are traditionally associated with gay culture. He may also prefer activities that are traditionally associated with gay culture, such as going to gay bars, attending LGBT pride parades, and participating in LGBT-related events.

Another sign that a man may be gay is if he has a lot of gay friends or if he talks often about his gay friends. He may also seem to be more comfortable talking about gay issues than about straight issues. Additionally, he may have a more open attitude toward gay people than other people his age.

Of course, none of these signs necessarily mean that a man is gay. However, if you are concerned that a man may be gay, it is important to pay attention to his behavior and the way he interacts with others. It is also important to remember that being gay is not something to be ashamed of or to hide. If you are concerned about a man's sexuality, it is important to talk to him about it in a respectful and understanding way.

His Toilet Habits...

Gay men who haven’t yet “come out” often feel uncomfortable in public toilets, and either don’t go or use the toilet rather than the urinals. If he refuses to go to the toilet in public and instead wants to go home, it might hint to him not being comfortable in his sexuality. Remember, though, that some people are really only comfortable using their own toilet.

***

The article is discussing potential signs that someone might be gay. One of the signs discussed is his toilet habits. It is suggested that gay men who have not yet come out might feel uncomfortable in public toilets and avoid using them. This could be an indication of discomfort with their sexuality. However, it is important to remember that some people just feel more comfortable using their own toilet. It is important to be aware of the signs of someone being uncomfortable with their sexuality, but it is also important to not jump to conclusions.

His View...

Most straight men cannot understand gays. While this doesn’t mean they are homophobic, they just cannot understand why a man would choose other men over women. If your boyfriend regularly talks about how gay men had a hard fight and should be accepted, or quotes gay men or Oprah, he might be trying to justify his sexuality.

His Gaming...

Gay men will often pick a female character in a game, or choose a very hunky man. The reason for this is unknown, but it is psychologically proven to be correct! A study shows that gay men almost always chose to play as Storm, while straight men chose from a range of men. So watch his gaming habits and see what charcater he picks as his avatar.

***

It's fascinating to observe the choices made in character selection, with personal representation in virtual worlds sometimes being a mirror into the inner self. Whether it's the allure of a powerful female presence or the allure of a muscular male protagonist, these selections can be telling. It's all about comfort and preference when someone immerses in a gaming universe. The choice might reflect aspirations, desires, or even an ideal self-image. Just remember, gaming can be an expressive space, unbound by the strictures of the real world.

Listen for the way he compliments you. Does he tell you that you look beautiful, or tell you that your jacket goes great with thoseskinny jeans and you should finish the look with diamante boots and pink nail varnish? Gay men are often very fashionable, so see how clued up he is.

His Profile...

Is his MySpace full of men he doesn’t know? Does he have a secret online profile? Social networking sites are often the place men “in the closet” let themselves go a little, and be themselves. So they can offer big hints as to what he’s really like! It’s an even bigger hint if his new friends have particularly revealing or sexy pictures.

***

If you're noticing that his social media accounts are peppered with likes and comments from unfamiliar guys with whom he seems to have a close connection, it might be a clue. On platforms like Instagram or Facebook, he could be following a multitude of male fashion icons, gay influencers, or LGBT-related pages. It's worth paying attention to the kinds of communities and groups he's interested in, as these digital footprints can sometimes signal his personal interests more transparently than he might do in real life.

He Hates Gays...

He might display an over the top rage at gays. This is a classic reaction to prevent people from guessing he is gay. As the homage goes, the greatest homophobe is the homosexual! It’s worth bearing in mind that some men actually cannot stand gays, however, and it isn’t always a sign of trouble.

If you still think he may be gay, it’s time to sit down and talk to him. Remember that he might be feeling confused, and that however hurt you feel, there’s a reason why you love him and you shouldn’t use his sexuality to hurt him. He won’t have been trying to hurt you, and probably honestly thought he could “change.” Be respectful, and calm, during the talk. Have you got a tip for finding out if he’s gay? Please let me know!

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

I also suspect that my boyfriend is gay. I tried to talk to him a few times but he always says that it is just not true. I found his Skype accounts where in one of them he pretends to be a girl, and in another he is himself. He says it's just for fun, that he has never slept with a guy and that he never will. He has had highly active sex life and attended sex parties in San Fran. He says that he never had sex with men, even then. I am OK with being bi-curious or even bi-sexual, and I talked to him very calmly even when I found him chatting with guys. I figure it's just him being naughty. I don't know what more I can do to get him to fess up?

I came across this and I had to make a comment. Please take note that I am not saying this applies to all men. I am just sharing my experiences and observations of being with a man who hid the fact that he is either gay or bisexual. I was dating this guy for 3 1/2 years. From the start, I felt like there was something odd about him sexually. Although he is bad in bed, it was more to it than that. I could never put my finger on it, but it was different and odd. He only sleeps in the nude and the First thing I noticed was that when he would lay behind me (spoon) me, he would put the covers in front of his private. This stood out to me because I love to feel a man's private up against me. Well, for some reason he didn't like it. When I was sure he was doing it intentionally, I questioned it. He pretended to not be aware that he was doing it. This went on a few more times and eventually, he wanted me to always lay behind him. It never occurred to me that this was a way to get away from being questioned about him putting the covers between us. I never made a big deal of it because this happened to be just about the only way I could fall asleep if I wasn't dead tired. When he would roll over to lay behind me in the middle of the night, he would be laying half way on his stomach with his arm over me, but NEVER directly behind me. Clearly for some reason he did not want his private up against my rear. At some point I noticed when he would touch me with his fingers between my legs, once he was done he would "slyly" wipe his finger on me. Once I was sure this was done purposely, I said something. I was upset of course because it made me feel dirty. He denied he was doing it intentionally. He had very weak erections 80% of the time for almost three years of the relationship and he could never go past 5 minutes. One night he joke about me coming to his house in a coat and nothing on under neath. That night he called to tell me to meet him at his house, he was headed home from work, I showed up in a trench coat, thigh high boots and nothing on underneath. He had been drinking a little, pretended to be turned on, but went to sleep. Before you assume anything, I'm very attractive and I work out. I'm not bad to look at. Most of the time, he never seemed interested in my body. I never caught him staring at me while I was naked. He never made eye contact when we were having sex, he never talked dirty and we rarely kissed. If things free his way, we would never ever have foreplay, just sex. We went to a sex store 3 times, his suggestion, but he seemed more interested in dildos and fake penis', than I was. We had anal sex 2 maybe 3 times, his request and never ever did he kiss me so passionately as he did the three times we had anal sex. We only had sex when he wanted it. It seemed like every time I initiated it, he didn't want it. I never felt like he was attracted to me sexually. At home he never showed any affection, but around his friends he would. He would often send me text messages talking about how he wanted to give me oral sex, but never ever would he follow through. I finally asked him to stop because I felt like it was all fake. He claimed to love to give oral sex, but he was horrible at it and he seemed to only like to lick my pearl tongue. He has several gay female friends, used to go to gay bars with one of them, before we met and he will go out of his way to befriend gay women, but never gay men, but he will point a gay man out and make comments about them. He is always pointing out things about a woman, like...her shoes are ugly or her weave needs to be done or something about her eye lashes. He even commented on a woman's eye shadow before. When we are watching the news, he will even comment on the woman's hair and talk about how limp it is. His ex wife told someone he was gay and his daughter's mom said she thought he was gay. And they both told other people about his sex being bad and awkward. Months before I left him, he allowed me to use a prostate toy on him and he let me stick my thumb up him also. I ended up getting into his phone and I saw that he had been browsing and possibly meeting up with women AND men on craigslist. Now tell me, do you think he is gay?

I been with my kids dad.for 13y and I know he's gay cause he talked to my uncle nasty

YEA .. it's cool : )

This article is laughable, if not somewhat offensive to gay men. Perhaps it should have been titled "10 signs he's a stereotypical gay". Only a small percentage of gay men fall in to this category and I think most women would be able to identify such men without the aid of this ridiculous article.

they all sound like a few flamers to me however straight guys are weirder than gay men .

I would like to add the this discussion, from the perspective of a gay man. I use gay chat internet sites to find dates, and never cease to be amazed at how many identify as married/bisexual. f we discount to ones who are simply in denial and do not have an female sexual partners in reality, I would stil estimate that 20% of all married/ostensibly straight men in relationships, are having sex with men. A few tips for women to look out for: Check his mobile phone, are there APPS for gay chat sites/ Check his pc, look at the history of sites he has used/visited. Check his phone bill.statement-are there lots of texts shown/ Looks at texts on his phone, are there lots from men? Is he working away a lot? I feel terribly sorry for anyone cheated by a partner, when it is a woman who is sysyematically being cheated on and put at risk that is even worse.

Okay so being a gay guy myself and reading all of these comments is very frustrating and it kind of hurts...honestly ALL of these are stereotypes. Plain and simple. Every person is different and looking at these things will not tell you if the guy is gay or not. I happen to love video games and sports, I don't spend a lot of time in the bathroom and I fucking hate shopping. So please next time you read bullshit like this please take the time to let the ignorant people know they are being very rude. Sorry if this comes off as rude but honestly you can't generalize people like that.
