I'm not gay, just a slightly effeminate, artsy, sensitive guy.
All my life, I've been trying hard to stay out of the way of the expectations of bloke culture, because it bores me.
I hate sports, I don't know what's on the news, and I prefer tea, cats, wine, and a quiet evening at home with candles, possibly including some yoga and a hot bath.
And I just had an idea: What if I started telling people I was gay? Would they finally let me do what I like, and not try to entice me to go fishing with them or have beers with the other blokes while some rugby game is on?
I'd just like to be myself without having to explain all the time. What do you think, would that be an option? I live in a country where being gay would be considered all right.
