It's been my experience that some people won't say anything about your sexuality even if they already know or think they know. I don't if everyone has had the experience of coming out to someone only to be told that they already knew. You may or may not have had this experience. It really left me wondering why didn't they saw something sooner. Would you really want a friend or a family member to flat out ask you if you're gay or not? I wouldn't worry about who might know. It's really not important. Bottom line, don't make you're self sick worrying about it. Anyway, I'm out for now.

Anyway.... they didn't know...
But, my first girlfriend did. She picked me out immediately she said. :)
For the sake of our being accepted, everyone who possibly can should come out. Once others recognize that we are just people, prejudice will dwindle.
Glad you feel comfortable enough to be yourself, in the presence of others.
To be out is to be free. No lies, no pretending, no subterfuge. "To thine own self be true," well said by Shakespeare.
We gays are coming out morel and more, and each who does lessens the prejudice against us. People are beginning to realize that we are everywhere. As they know begin to know us, they understand that we are just people
In real life, would it be considered rude to ask someone if they're gay? I'd be afraid of putting someone on the spot who didn't want to out themselves.
If someone is on friendly terms with me, or is a potential good friend, or a friend, it doesn't matter to me what their sexual orientation is. I'd rather be informed upon meeting someone if they're serial killers, psychopaths, or abusive. That's not going to happen... until it's too late.
I know many straight men who are rather effeminate.
I have known some friends were gay long before they told me, but felt no need to bring it up because, duh, it's not my business, and I don't really care. (But then, I would find it very odd to have someone come up and announce, "I feel I should tell you I'm straight.")
I seriously want to try that on someone someday!
Do you think they'll say, "I knew that"?
Then I could ask, "How could you tell?"
oh... this isn't going well...
I'm gonna go back and sit in my corner now.
I used to be pretty good at playing matchmaker. And then my daughter (young at the time) tried to take over and wanted to hook my lesbian cousin up with one of my male friends. I explained the problem to her and after that we started asking people which gender we should keep in mind when playing matchmaker. Far as I know, no one was offended.
"Sir, are you a serial killer?"
"why yes. how did you know?"
"You have a certain mystique about you... oh, I dunno... a look in your eyes"
"Well, lady, you look straight to me!"
"Did I offend you, sir?"
"No. Would you like to meet me in a dark alley in about an hour?"
"Are you flirting with me?... excuse me...
Ma'am! I'd like to ask you a few questions, I'm with WWW.com News.
Are you straight?"
WHOMP!
"ouch! bish!. It was an honest question! no free tee shirt for YOU!"
