I just got off work went to a store and parked next to me was a Guy who was acting like he was Gay on the Phone..saying things and such to someone..after he got off the phone him and his Buddy started cracking up about it..so i need you if you are able to explain why people do this? Do they think its fun to carry on this way? Are they maybe trying to hide something and this is one way to act and deny at the same time?
I just looked at him and thought he was till the laughter about it.

Well, that's a immature guy for you. Just trying to shock you. Just ignore him, he's useless to society. He does not think about anything for more than 5 seconds and he does not really have any concern for the things in the world that have to change. Maybe he'll grow up one day, maybe not. Forget about it.

[i]Hi Rose,
I have a friend who will act like a gay to some of his friends as a joke and they love it so much...I guess some people are doing this to create humor or this is their role in a group of friends but I have observed also some who are imitating gays the way they walk, talk and laugh, I have met several people like these in the streets while gays are also around!
It's very rude of course showing no respect to those people,, we know they have feelings also and it will be painful for them![/i]

if he was acting gay on the phone and then laughed it off with his buddy..
he could be gay and not be out and so he laughs it off so hes buddy won't think anything... or he could just be a jerk. people pick on what they don't understand.
some men think gay men are not "real" men. but they are girls and so they make fun of them for that and they pick on them. i really don't know.. who knows why? probably no one but the guy himself.
if he IS gay himself.. that doesn't mean he won't make fun of "gays" because i am gay and in the past i have said things to cover my butt so people don't think that i am gay. so gays will make fun of other gays. it doesn't matter.

Rosekitty,
I am not gay but, I just wanted to add my two cents. I hope you don't mind. I think what that guy was doing was being disrespectful. I don't understand the humor behind it.
I guess he thought it was funny, or he wouldn't have done it but, I don't get it. Why be disrespectful to other people? Or, about other people? Grow the heck up! Right?
Sorry I couldn't really give you an answer. I don't really have one as it is not in my nature to make fun of other people for things that are as much a part of them as their skin.

Rosekitty, while I am not, it does irritate me how people enjoy doing such things. Lets face it, some people get pleasure out of stirring up trouble. Some do it to look big in front of others. I have several friends that are. I'm not the least bit bothered by it. I recall someone telling me once that they were and I told them the only thing that might mess me up for a few minutes is if they were green with purple polkadots. I've never met anyone like that, lol. If you are happy and are a good person, I'm happy for you.
Blessings,
Carolyn

It's called homophobia. Does it make sense that they act gay and make fun of it to deny that they are? No, but the platypus doesn't make much sense either...

Irrelevant there are so many people who do not have any real thing to do but to pose and attract others. What he and she had been doing is irrelevant and you need not bother to that. IThe power is off I will complete lateron.

Sad isn't it ? Why do people feel it's okay to bash on anyone ? I tend to believe they're just plain ignorant and haven't yet found a more appropriate way to help them feel better about who they are...Too many people still rely on trying to make others feel "small" to feel good about themselves. And even more sadly - it's still rather acceptable to taunt & harrass gays. My own personal hope is that someday society (using the term loosely) will grow/evolve beyond this kind of behavoir.
