The one rumor I didn't want started about me happened [View All]

[Deja Q]

A temp worker who started 2 months ago and I have gone out for lunch. Totally platonic, she's got a fiance and some children. I'm single and gay. How much better does it get?

Well, some coworkers told management their "concerns".

Management told the temp worker today on an exit interview that we going out to lunch was inappropriate.

She told me later on that day. She did not out me and said it was platonic, friends-only.

Uh, we are friends only. Think "Three's Company" minus one and me being gay but apparently pretending to be straight. :puke: What's the fucking problem? Me having a penis and she not having one? What if I was female? Would everybody start whining and spreading baseless innuendo, in a typically human manner not asking any of us directly?! :grr: :mad: :nuke:

I know of far more things worthy of investigation, except we can't police the policemen...

Wretched sexism.

Wretched "assume he's a hetero out to bust a move and grab your goodies" syndrome.

Argh.

I wish I was straight. The war the militant heteros are instigating against us (anti-marriage, 'doctors' given the ok by government to refuse to treat us... all GLBT people should be beyond livid at republicans, it's as simple as that) is only going to get worse. On the plus side, maybe I know what I was meant for in life. Be a pawn in somebody else's game. Whee.

Edit: Replaced a glib heterophobic term with a more PC and infinitely more accurate term aimed at my traducers...
