Universal gay experiences?

[Virgos Groove]

I'll start: filling an "are you gay?" online quiz when you're young.

[Domination]

Men’s underwear section at Walmart/Target as a pre-teen.

[cockatoo]

Staring at the men's underwear aisle as a child but not understanding why

[ScubaDive]

Lady Gaga

[Jotham]

On that note, looking up "How to tell if I'm gay?" on Yahoo Answers

[Escape]

Staring at the men's underwear section is the one I fear.

homophobia

[GivingCher]

Feeling a lot of feelings during this scene in Smallville 

 

[DamianSolo]

Minding your own business, whether at school or on the job, and being randomly (not so randomly) asked if you're gay.

[Escape]

Picking female characters in video games.

"Can I ask you a question?" triggers my fight-or-flight response to this day.

[Aston Martin]

Shitting bricks when you hear "Hey, I have to ask you about something..."

 

Edit: Oh, and getting to hear someone you're close with but not out to go on some unprompted homophobic tirade.

And that's exactly how it always starts. Apparently, I have very fluid motions and walk like a model. I mean, it what it is; I'm just me, even if I do move gracefully for a dude.

[SoulKiwi]

I came in expecting funny or dumb answers, and instead I got (not so) personally attacked 

 

 

[MusicLoverDude]

Being ghosted on dating apps 

Unrequited feelings for male friends or acquaintances either because they are straight or because they want a guy more masc or some **** 

[Orsay]

 

idk about universal but this image from the cover of Rolling Stone did something to a lot of gays around my age who were preteens at the time  

[Take Me Apart]

Being sent back to your parents birth country in a conversion camp when you can't even speak the language

This!

[Smarticle]

Having more friends that are girls 

[ScorpiosGroove]

- "why do you only hang out with girls ?"

-  a group of guys asking you to kick a football while you panick 

- jerking off to gay porn while telling yourself it’s just curiosity and "probably everyone does that"
