Am I the only one of us whose gaydar is going off?

[Guest]

Do you guys also have your gaydars going off when Tim Kaine speaks??

[Rudynate]

Could be.

[Kenny]

No, but my Nerdar was going off. (I like the guy too.)

[Rudynate]

He seems to be fluent in Spanish. Fluency in a foreign language, for me, is always +1 in the gay column.

[bigvalboy]

No...

 

For myself, my attention was elsewhere. I was listening to what he said.

[LookingAround]

No. And I didn't think his Spanish was all that great either. Folksy yes. Gay not at all.

[longtime lurker]

Not as strongly as it does when Mike Huckabee and Ted Cruz speak. Those two are as gay as picnic baskets.

 

Personally, I never liked that term although I love that cute "meter" picture. The only time "gaydar" sounds right to me is when one person is trying to determine if another he or she is interested in has mutual desires and is analyzing facial expressions and words spoken. Not any stereotypical expressions like a man talking "effeminate". Everybody else uses "gaydar" like they do to determine if somebody is Jewish, communist, a terrorist or has "an ounce of NeeeGrow Blood in 'em" as in the golden age of segregation. Since the Kinsey reports of the 1940s confirmed that few people are 100% heterosexual and 100% homosexual, being "gay" merely just means you have actually Done The Deed with somebody of your own gender. Probably 60-70% of the world population is at least mentally "stimulated" by members of both genders. Mel Gibson always gave me the "gaydar" vibe but I think he had too much of a fetish for his own butt to carry out his desires, although he was happy to flaunt it in the first Lethal Weapon movie... as if he was ready to be taken down.

:p:p The very first thing one of my straight coffee shop/truck stop buddies said to me the day after Hillary picked him' "Did you see that Kaine guy last night? Man, he is gay for sure."

 

Me, I don't see it.

He's cute! So we're projecting our own desires on him.

 

I mean, this morning female Twitter is composing a DILF calendar out of pics of Kaine through the ages.

 

 

You're welcome.

Goodness - what a cutie! Love the chest hair.

For me, Best Ass in Leather goes to Ben Browder in Farscape:

I've seen the first photo multiple times on my Twitter timeline.

Speaking of nerd-cute, someone on the radio just said that Kaine is the kind of guy who mails in the warranty card on his wife's new vibrator.

There are sweet, sensitive, caring men, who are spiritual and priest-like, and who happen to be heterosexual. I know a few.

Like Mister Rogers and Daniel Striped Tiger. Not so sure about Lady Elaine.

I had no clue this was a sign....Well, I am fluent in 3 languages, and as gay as they come, so it must be true

[+ Charlie]

About the fourth time he said, "Can I tell you somethin'? Can I tell you somethin'?" I turned it off. Almost everything about his speaking style made me cringe. He may be a great guy, but I hope he doesn't have to succeed Hillary.

 

On the other hand, I thought Bloomberg's speech was excellent. He said the same things I have been thinking throughout the campaign.

[+ glennnn]

The thought never crossed my mind. I was so involved in the whole gestalt of the evening that I was completely carried away. Kaine's speech, and all the others were so engaging. What I saw was a man I could believe in. If he's on the gay side, so much the better.

There are a lot of seniors in Virginia who can't afford hearing aids.

Well, in Europe it wouldn't be, where it is commonplace to be fluent in 2 or 3 or 4 languages. But in the brain-dead USA, where it is unusual for anyone to know more than a few words of a foreign language, to me, fluency in even one foreign language is an indicator of a singular intellect. And gay men tend to have singular intellects.

That must be true of all Trump supporters.

Not all, but you MUST question why he is so booming LOUD all of the time. Can you all hear me in the back row?

My gadar doesn't bip when he speaks in English, but when he switches to Spanish it goes crazy. He sounds very gay. I do not know what other Spanish speakers think. @Truereview ?

Lol! I had the opportunity to hear him in Miami. I detect a faint Honduran accent in his Español but that's about it.

My gaydar is infallible. I can usually detect if a man is gay/bi/straight right after they shoot in my mouth, chest, or ass.

I just read that he spent time in Honduras as a missionary, so either your ear for accents is impeccable or you knew that and you were showing off. (The GOP accused him of wearing a Honduran flag badge [shameful!] when in fact it was a foreign military service pin he was wearing to honour his USMC son.)
