121. Look....I'm not trying to be offensive.
If you or others are offended, then I apologize. Bliss, Bi, etc included in that apology since you seem to be actively disapproving of my opinion - same goes for you on the apology if you were offended. Not the intent of my comments to say the least and if the Mods or others think they are offensive, then they should be deleted.

But, I truly don't believe that I said anything wrong by saying that I can sometimes tell a gay person when I meet them. I can sometimes tell a person is from Lon-guy-land by their accent, but not every person in Long Island has the same accent. Make sense? I mean, do you always wait for someone to tell you that they are gay before you even allow the thought to enter your own head? Do you really believe what I said was homophobic?

On a side, you seem to be making some pretty big assumptions about me. By saying that you think that I'm gay and (jokingly) saying "I see the way you look at me", you must assume that I'm a man. And since it looks like you thought that I would be insulted, you must be making the assumption that I am straight and/or homophobic as well.

I know you were trying to be humorous, but still.....
