I've never come across that in the states.

It may be a stereotype, but it isn't as unfair and hurtful as the stereotype about goths tha was posted. In all honesty, it's a stupid belief and it hurts no one, unless they are homophobic, which is what comes across when you say he thought he was going to get his ass kicked; it's as if it bothered you when it shouldn't have.

I like Judy Garland but I'm not gay. Should I be bothered that some may think I am? No, I should worry about more important things and not such trivial ridiculousness.
