Well, for those of you who've got the red baron flowass ovulabiation goin on right now, there's just one thing we want to know.

.... Is Prince gay or not?

Not that it is important, (or is it? )

But when I look at American Bandstand.. it SCRREAAAAMS gay..

yet

When I listen to Emancipation, especially 'Saviour' I think he CAN'T fool himself that much, I mean you don't fake a love so deep.

So I'd say no, I don't think he is, but hey who am I to know, usually my gaydar is pretty efficient, but being a female fan, maybe I just wish he's not.. but still I'd say no.

what a pointless study....gay men do not have different facial structure compared to straight men.

or did they pick guys with feminen hair and plucked eyesbrows? in which case makes the study pointless anyways...

either way, its stupid... why would you wanna identify gay people anyway?

i smell desperation...someone's in desperate need to get a paper published in some journal

How many of the men had waxed eyebrows or boy band hair? lol

Let me tell you all how a female's gaydar works:

"He's not attracted to me, so he must be gay."

not me...

more than once i have hit on gay guys... not knowing

its always awkward 4 them..... having to tell me... fucking hell woman look at my shoes

Well, some women, anyway. (Hi, PositivityNYC! )

Positivity has gaydar. It just works in reverse.

I'm still trynna work out something we can patent, where we could rent her out and folk could carry her on their back when they go out manhuntin.

maybe I should start reading naughty fiction..?

Even if that is the case, then it's still interesting that shifts in hormonal levels have that effect on women. Research like this is very important if we want to have a better understanding of how we function (which a lot of people find scary). From here on they can conduct more research to find out exactly how this works. This is just a small contribution, but that's how it works most of the time, small steps at a time.

Also don't forget that the mainstream media tend to oversimplify research like this and/or try to make the outcome sound more spectacular than it really is. Don't blame that on the scientists.

I read the original paper, posted the link above too....I'm very cynical when it comes to stuff like this...It sounds like a perfect example of coming up with a conclusion first and then fabricating evidence to back it up.

I dont know maybe I'm just jelly coz I didn't come up with it first

I have a friend who is straight but very shy, there are girls that ask him out all the time but he usually declines, not too long ago he was asked if he was gay because of this

Efan said:

So what's the deal with all these women with gay husbands? Have they just placed other priorities ahead of marrying a straight man?

Nope they were on the pill when they fell in love (it suppresses ovulation)

A better question might be, "why would a gay man marry a woman?"

those "marriages" STOPPED a long time ago... (since the 70's, I'd say)

and of course that gaydar works; in the flesh, any woman can tell which men want to fu*k the living days outta her, and which men just want to...be her friend? lol

of course, many women don't accept the third possibility: "no, I just don't wanna f*ck you-you're not hot"...hence the mythic "oh, he must be gay" line...

Cravens said:

I wonder if the male version of gaydar, as in straight's being able to pick lesbians, have the same flow?

When horny, they have no gaydar. Everything looks fuckable.

When not, still no gaydar.

?

Men don't need gaydar. All we need a minimal permissiveness.

If you let me- sure I will.

Yeah it's usually very easy to see if a man wants to fuck me, but I never ever thought when a man was not interested that he was gay . I just think I am not his type. I honestly cannot imagine many women really assume a man who isn't interested in them must be gay .

Really?!!!

Nope.

I was in the Army in the 80's and there were plenty.

I've also met married men (Black) who told me their wives knew they slept with men before they were married.

Have fun!

I doubt they have stopped. It's a big world and not only is much of it still pretty unenlightened about the subject

I hear people say some very ignorant and hateful things and I live less than 10 miles from San Francisco

I can only imagine what it is like to grow up in a place where there is not such a visible presence of gay people and greater acceptance
