I am no one at all

Confusion

Misnomers, misnomers.

I can’t understand how terminologies for “gayness” have become so muddled up.

I for myself am a considerably straightacting gay guy, and some of my acquaintances refer to me as a bisexual, which I dont actually dig, since I never got to like girls in the first place.

Bisexuals, by definition, are people who are, or at least have the capacityto be, attracted to people of bothe sexes.

Straights are only those who like the opposite sex.

Gay people like the same sex.

Straight trippers (assuming they actually exist) are straight people who actually jsut wanna explore the other side of the fence, just for the heck of it, with no actual sexual urge to do so. In short, they do gay sex just out of curiosity.

Now, whenever I go online in MiRC or in G4M, I always see these terms flabbergastingly interchanged, and I dunno which is which.

I can sooo remember this time when I was in a bar and someone approached me, asked for my number, started a conversation which was actually entertaining and lasted for like 30 minutes, then blurts out a disclaimer:

“Pero pare ha, wag tayo sanang magkaroon ng di pagkakaintindihan, straight ako.”

“Nge, Ulol.”, I replied.

Then there’s another time when I heard some guy say something like,

“Di ako pumapatol sa gay, sa bi pwede pa.”

Hay, unbelievable.

I guess it all boils down to people’s insecurities about the labels of their respective sexual orientations.

Thing is, I’m way past that.
