Gay dudes used to try to hide being gay. Even flamboyant ass gay dudes would deny being gay, now this.
this..100%
my former best friend and also this cat that live around the way that was a grade under me was like this
my former best friend came out to me after we graduated..the signs outwardly were not there at first because he talked about p*ssy so gotdamn much...and he wasnt just talking the talk, he was walking the walk..he had a girlfriend who he lost his virginity too..i used to be the 3rd wheel when we hung out..there were 2 specific incidents later on that made me raise an eyebrow but i brushed that off as jokes because he was still getting p*ssy
the other cat was flamboyant as a motherfukker..i guess a little extra with it..that was his personality..dude was into sports and everything..also singing and stuff..wasnt doing anything publicly or outwardly gay...there was one time me and then my best friend were shooting the shyt..and we saw dude and he was being extra..and i told him my best friend that i think he might be gay...so my best friend called him over and asked him that to his face
...he denied that ASAP and said of course not.
the 90s was just different man..different times
in the end both of them ended up gay as hell with preferences....my former best friend liked them a little young and on the lean/skinny side
; the other dude was into fat old bearded hairy white men...the latter i wish i never knew what he was into but his fb and instagram posts made it very clear what he liked
