Get Smart! Learn How to Tell if Your Guys Straight or Gay ...
By Mabelle • Aug 10, 2024

Here’s a 'gaily' (pun intended) interesting article from AOL Personals about how to tell if someone's gay or not.

There's this study conducted by researchers NYU, UCLA **and **Texas **where they found out that **subtle cues are easier to detect in gay men than in lesbians.

…gay men had hourglass figures, while the lesbians had more tubular bodies. In addition, the gay men tended to sway their hips, while the lesbian women swaggered their shoulders more than their straight counterparts.

So what are the other signs to watch out for to check if he's gay or not? Here's a few, just for laughs:

1. He Cares about Your **hair **more than You do

2. He criticizes your choice in shoes

4. He always tries to catch the eye of the cutest guy in the room

Uhhmm… I really can't add more to the list but I do love "**Will & Grace**" – I guess if you find out that a potential bf's gay, you can just turn him into your** BFF**, lol.

    okay so im dating this guy and he seems really feminine and i think he's gay but i really hope he's not because I really love him. He always texts me and says he misses me all the time. he only acts like a boyfriend when we are alone and he always holds my hand and we make out all the time. If we havent seen echother for a while then he always calls me to say he misses holding me and kissing me. He always calls me and says i love you when ever he can like any normal boyfriend but its just sometimes he could be feminine. Whenever I bring up gays he doesnt really care and he said its gross but its their lives so it doesnt matter to him. He isnt into sex because he said he wants to save that for marriage but would have sex with me already if we were married. but he loves to go shopping and is into ed hardy and hollister. he will re decorate his room every year and he now started to go tanning, He is obsessed with lady gaga and he claims he is her number one fan. People think he is gay too and he said he isnt. He usually notices small things though like haircuts and he is very opinionated on what people wear and do. He doesnt have many guy friends and most of his friends are girls. He can make his voice go high if he is telling a story about what a girl said. is he gay? or just has a feminine side?

    heyy.. iv been in such a difficult situation and sort of the same as what some of the girls on here have also said.. i was with my boyfriend for just over 2 years, complicated at times and on and off, as we couldnt bare the fact for being seperated from each other.. but yeah about 7 months ago, he had told me he was gay… completely crushed me? but at the same time confused me a lot, as he did not show any sign of being gay at all. i cant help but still have feelings for him as he has been my first love and first of everything and he says same for me? thats why it had been so hard for him to just walk away ... anywhooz, .. as this was a surprise to a lot of the people he is close to, especially me, could this possibly be just a phase..? we have such strong feelings for each other, but can't seem to get this issue resolved..

    I'm dating a guy who's most cherished memories are when he was in a band as a singer and both men and women adored him. 1.He's extremely meticulous about everything he does from dressing to cooking to barbering. He unconscienably spends hours in the bathroom knowing that A. I am the female and should be given first preference to it & B. Its theonly usable bathroom in the house. 2. He is Xtremely homophobic and says he wishes he could find a way to bannish gays from our salon. Yet a few days ago when a gay customer told me that I should come by the club to get an idea of how well attended the gay clubs are by a variety of people from all walks of our society, he (my BF) said 'I would love go there to see that. I just feel a straight guy would have no interest in who's gay and who's not let alone go to a gay club to "SEE". 3. I'm an accomplished executive working with a major corporate firm and when we're arguing (to let meknow that i'm not the best catch he could possibly have) he'd referrence a gay doctor who was in love with him who would always buy him expensive gifts but that he's not as accomplished as I am in my career because he made a choice in his life to not be gay and thats why he's not as far as he could be. 4. He has told me very early in our relationship that he grew up as a young boy wearing his siters undies and that he had even worn them in his adult life as a singer. This is something I doubt he remembers when he's gay bashing. 5. He never hesitates to remind me whenever we argue that he and I are not a match and that we will never make it. I believe that this is mainly because he prefers a gay relationship. 6. Sex for us is "Without Words"....literally. He never talks and this makes me feel uncomfortable to be myself and alot dissatisfied. when we're done he's always disconnect me from the act by saying something like "that was great" or "That was sweet" rather than "YOU are great" 7. When I met his siter for the first time, her first words to me were that my brother grew up in a house filled with women so never mind him being a bit soft. That made me feel as though they know that he's gay and are apart of the cover up. 8. He has NO stories about women he was in love with prior to me. He references his ex girlfriends as women who loved him. 9. There is no romance in our relationships and unless i outrightly ask him if he loves me, he'd never say it. 10. I observed him watching a shemale movie and he was much too comfortable and curious. He watched it til the end. Come on people, am i in denial? Is this an obvious one or what?

    hi.. im just wondering if my boyfriend is gay.. we're together for 5 months now.. personally, i don't think he is but i really noticed some gestures that well, other people may think that he is gay.. he usually covers his mouth when laughing ALWAYS.. he is really not that manly in walking but he does not walk in one line.. his favorite movie is stardust. he is not that fashionable.. he is very slow in eating, i usually finish first before he does.. our married guy neighbors told my parents that they think he's gay.. i hope you can help me with this.. im a bit confused.. he had 4 girlfriends already.. and had flings.. he opened up all about it to me.. he also make love with them.. so do you think he is gay? thanks..

    hi. i really need your advice.. I have a boyfriend, who was a former flight attendant.. we met in school, everyone says he's gay/bisexual because of the way he acts and moves.he is not a regular "tough" guy, because he's feminine on some other ways, but not on the physical. i love him so much but i'm afraid that he might be really gay and i'm scared that we may end up together but what if he still see other guys? that would really break my heart. honestly i still don't know if he is bisexual/gay but when i see his pictures in face book all of his friends in the airline he used to work are all gay and women.. i even read an email from his former classmate back in college, asking him if he still remember him, the boy said they watched a movie and he even gave my boyfriend a chocolate cake.(i think that's not normal for a regular man) also, he is not aggressive, he don't kiss me at all, all or kisses are smack kisses.. sigh.(our relationship is only new though.. 5 months) on the other hand he is such a really nice guy,literally, he would help everyone and he is very friendly. when i'm with him i can feel he is not a guy but i'm still confuse because of his feminine side and the email i read and his friends.. i dont want to ask him because im afraid he might get offended. i really love him, what should i do? please help me. thank you!
