Do you think it's an act.

It seems so over-the-top and exagerrated. Like he's doing it for attention. I have seen some pretty gay people in my life though, and I'd say he's an extreme example.


There's a few guys like that here in Bangkok


But in Bangkok, these stereotypes don't lead to fag-bashing.

can I dislike this shit here and on facebook???

thejason said:

OK, this question is not aimed specifically at you Jason, but all orgers and the greater gheymunity at large.

Is your dislike of this guy because he is so fey, or is it because he's a jabbermouth?

TheVoid said:

all honesty, both....and, imo, most of it is just put on...and it's fucking annoying...

TheVoid said:

I think his voice is so damn annoying!

Plus, his over-the-top, ridiculous presentation makes me think he needs to get out of that room and stop trying so hard to be liked.

chocolate1 said:

What about this guy?





I actually think he's quite hilarious in places. And often speaks the truth.

Quote fey though, but I like his fashion advice. I'm shocked he's giving it
in that sweater.

TheVoid said:

he's not annoying...and isnt trying to be over the top...I just cant deal with fake shit - on several levels, not just the gay one...

chocolate1 said:

I pictured us in an org-version of when the folk like up to slap that chick in the movie Airplane.

TheVoid said:

If that's not an act then he needs to be ridin a short pink bus.

TheVoid said:

I just got a chance to listen to him... he's not over the top. He's a little dramatic, but his advice isn't bad... (except insert Crocs in for Doc Martens )

That other fool, squealing and carrying on...

There was a hairdresser at my friend's shop who tried to be "THE MOST GHEY" he could be. He'd come up with dumb phrases like, "How DARE yooooou?" and wear it out. He also practiced his "runway walk" back and forth thru the shop.
All that shit isn't necessary.

TheVoid said:

yes, it's an over the top annoying act...

and I hope I dont come across as fag bashing...I would choose never to be around that dude irl but it has nothing to do with where he sticks his dick...

used the wrong word edit

I totally agree.
My best friend is gay (and not in that annoying liberal "I have Black friends" way- we've been close since 1st grade), and he and I talk about this kind of stuff all the time. He gets embarrassed when guys act like that around him.
We always wonder what that act is supposed to accomplish...

can you really fag-bash in a place named Bangkok?

chocolate1 said:

I stopped it at the same point.

Totally annoying.

It's not anything-bashing to not want to be around this dude. I couldn't do it. I would seriously lose my cool around him. There are dudes that are feminine by nature. I'm more feminine than Ron (who practically "passes" for straight) but nowhere near that dude. Lawdhammerceee not even when I was in drag did I conduct myself like that.

I have very mixed feelings about folk "putting it on" to that degree. I suppose kinda like any minority where some folk seem to enjoy putting forth the worst stereotypes as their chosen persona. I am no psychologist, but no one is born acting like that. No one. And quite honestly, as an act, I'm not gonna say there isn't one, but I personally am not getting the point. I'm missing the wit altogether (if there's supposed to be any there) and seeing him more as a clown. I guess for me it comes across as if the gay equivalent to what some folk here refer to as coonery in just about every Tyler Perry movie discussion...what would that be? faggery??

johnart said:

actually, this dudes headshot would make a great emoticon...somebody with skills hook that up...

thejason said:

For sure, I am one giant
Trust me when I say (or ask anyone who's met me) that if I get my ass run out of a bar it won't be for acting like Ms. Puft Marshmallow Gurrl in that video.

I want to learn how to make emoticons.

johnart said:

John...we have real lives...you leave stupid shit like that to the nerds...

johnart said:

I was thinking the same thing, but couldn't put it into words that wouldn't spark a debate about minority stereotypes.
I hate "over the top" period. Why go there?

chocolate1 said:

you know, going there aint so much the problem...it's when folks stay there...

thejason said:

Just curious. By nerds, do you mean Dan?

johnart said:

I don't name drop...I'm more of a generalizer...

chocolate1 said:

There are so very few words that won't spark minority debates. You know god-forbid I don't say what the hell is in my head for fear of it exploding. I'd never get the glitter out from between the keyboard keys.
I just took a chance.I'm just glad it was articulate enough to make some kind of sense.

thejason said:

I meant to say "people like Dan".

johnart said:

he's a likeable guy...

johnart said:

that blond kid was annoying; couldn't get half way thru it
you know I used to watch the 2nd guy..
I was gonna make some smiley suggestions (emoticons are done in ASCII; smileys are the images), but, I'm just not feelin' the love up in here...

PositivityNYC said:

He's got a lot of sugar in his coffee.


Seriously I had to stop at about :15. That voice is really annoying me and I'm sure it's not how he speaks. I dunno...it seems embellished.

Annoying as hell, and seems fake to me.
