So people think I'm gay

Note- this is NOT by any means meant to bash gay people. I have absolutely no problem with them, they are people too, but my situation is making girls shun away from me, which, as a straight male, is something I don't want

It seems as though the rumor has been passing through the school I go to that I am gay. Apparently I dress gay, act gay, and do gay stuff. On a normal school day I wear khakis, sandals, and a dress shirt (no tie), just FYI. Now I thought it had been blatanly obviously that I am straight, but apparently not. Seeing how things are overblown in high school this has been affecting my relationships with other kids and is overall growing to be a problem that needs to be fixed.

Any solutions?

TIA
JB


PS Connemara you can contribute if you have anything to bring to the table

You should exude masculinity by going to the gym and getting buff. While you're there, wear muscle shirts to show off how tough you are. Shave off your body hair so that every chiseled line is clear to see. Then no one will think you're gay.


NB I wish someone had told me this in high school: if you bang a "popular" chick, they will ALL find out about it. Then it doesn't matter what rumors the guys circulate.

Maybe you have been spending too much time on StyleForum and its inherent gayness has affected your demeanor...

Don't worry about it, women love a pretty boy. If people don't believe you when you say you are straight then that is their problem. If it really bugs you, have you considered dating girls? The rumors of your gayness go away quickly when you get spotted making out with a hot chick

Maybe your love for airplanes has been correlated by your pairs as a love and attraction for a phalic symbol ...

JB, stay clear of the first. It's a super gay gau.

The second is a very wise thought.

Btw, what happened to this little East-European girl you felt in love several weeks ago?

Don't overreact. Just play it off, as much as you can. "I'm not gay, I just act this way to get chicks" or whathaveyou. If you try too hard to fight this rumor, it's only going to fuel it. Just don't worry about it. People may or may not really believe that you're gay. Sometimes folks just like to say things they think will be upsetting. And ultimately it doesn't matter.

use it to your advantage. go out with girls who wouldnt date you under the premise of being gay, get drunk with them, and tell them youd like to see what a girl is like in bed.
