Facial features of a gay man.

10 months ago | ManOMan (Member)

My question is this: Is it possible to look at a complete stranger (male) and identify that man as gay based on facial expressions, facial features, etc? I'm not sure this comes under gaydar. But it seems to me that a man's mouth, eyes, etc. can tip me off to a gay man. If you look at a variety of facial pictures of gay men there seem to be some commonalities that make it possible to identify them as gay.....much like a Asians, for example, are identifiable..... although not as easily. Just curious what y'all have experienced out there.

    But wait a minute: aren't all men gay - or at least potentially gay - even if they are not aware of it? LOL

    Now, seriously, I think it is something that you perceive but can't be put into words.

    You are onto something here. I also believe there is a continuum of sexuality. I used to have aspects of both continua, but in the last 20 years have slammed all the way over to gay.
    And I can't stand to look at my face in the mirror, so there is no help from this mug to support my theory!! LOL

    Haha

    As for me, I am still on both continua, but the difference is: I make love only to one woman, that is my wife, but I can in principle make love to any man (no, I mean most men) that comes my way and is available for sex.

    The face is part of it - but it's also the stance, the way the clothes hang on the body,
    the aftershave, the little gestures (eyebrows, lips), the seductive flex,
    not so subtle rub to the crotch - you know, the whole package... :)

    I have to admit, my Gaydar is often woefully inadequate to figure these things out.

    And Urbano, you're married? I haven't followed many of your comments (I rarely get down here to the Forum), but I'd be interested in hearing more about you and your experience. I suspect that many of my CWSs are– or have been– married. Or at least are still in the closet...

    Urb, feel free to email me. As I said, I seldom read the Forum comments, so it will undoubtedly be awhile before I return... :(
