That's what I'm talking about.
And that's my problem with homosexuality.

The emphasis was on 'some'.
The type of gay people I'm focusing on typically use their sexual persuasion to constantly bang on about their sexual exploits.
When they're not directly talking about it, they still manage to squeeze it into a normal conversation. And usually somebody else's at that.
It can be almost impossible to finish a sentence, without being interrupted by some panhead slipping in an innuendo every now and then.
They think they're being funny too. When they are in fact being incredibly tiresome, crude and extremely boring.
The people I'm talking about never seem to let up the opportunity to flaunt their gayness.
It leads me to believe that it's some kind of attention seeking device.
And I find that kind of behaviour obnoxious.

Equally, it isn't OK for straight men to do the same either...had you read my post properly.

I agree that gay people who overly flaunt how gay they are can be annoying. I'm sure many gay men feel the same way because they feel like the "flamers" are enforcing negative stereotypes about gay men in general.

But this is not unique to homosexuals. Heterosexual men can be and often are just as obnoxious. It seems that overall, men love bragging about sex way more than women do. And social stigma makes it acceptable for men to do this but when women do it they come off as being sluts.

It's a terrible double standard, but another terrible double standard people often make is that it's ok for straight men to do it but when gay men do it it's considered disgusting and something that should be kept private.

I'm sure the gay men with a healthy attitude to their own sexuality would agree. In the same way straight men who have a healthy attitude of their own sexuality don't feel the need to reassure themselves with graphic tales of sexual exploits.

And the men come off as being insecure, loudmouthed arseholes.

No it isn't. Not in my book.

That's usually the case in the short term but I remember reading a study that when a woman wants to settle down she won't wanna be stuck with that type.. for obvious reasons. But then again they will never wanna go for the overtly sensitive type. I think it's all about balance; a guy they can have a lot of fun with but can be serious and mature when the situation calls for it. Being the extreme on either end is no good

Well, some women are conditioned to believe that the more masculine a man the better. And these days being masculine is just a kinder word for being a douchebag. Society embraces the idea that alpha males and men who are "in control" are what women need. And so women believe that and unfortunately it becomes justifcation for overly controlling and abusive behavior.

A lot of women who stick around with total ballsacks justify it with their lack of self esteem, the feeling that they don't deserve someone better. My mom used to be like this and her previous relationship was a terrible one.

Self esteem is a big issue with women and I guess like most feminists I pin a good portion of the blame on men.

I believe RT has a problem with camp people rather than gay people, and I'm totally with him if he is.

It's not just the bragging, it's the endless double entendres, knowing winks and oo-errs that plague every sentence of every conversation.

The whole 'LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME I'M A HOMOSEXUAL, LOOK AT HOW OUTRAGEOUS I AM' seriously gets on my tits after a very few seconds.

Thank f*ck that all of the gay or lesbian people I know are nothing like that.

It wouldn't surprise me if a lot of gay men were frustrated with eccentrics. They're incredibly annoying.

I love camp. Nothing wrong with a little pizazz.

I'm cool with people being "out there" and being attention whores, as long as that doesn't make them inconsiderate jerks.

Lol.

What? You CAN be an attention whore and still have a sense of ethics and respect for others.

I am undeniably an attention whore when it comes to how I express myself on Music Banter. I still show respect to others, but only those I deem worthy of respect.

I personally think everyone is an attention whore in their own way. Weither it's someone trying to fit in or someone who wants to make themselves look like a lizard.

Keep taking the tablets boo.
