I know what you mean. The problem with that is that a gay person may think "oh, so you think that I'm silly or can't be taken seriously because I'm gay."

I was at an outdoor festival with Ryan once, and as we passed this kid he said "Good Lord, that boy is queer as a three dollar bill!" I almost peed my pants from laughing. Just like I did when we all realized we were eating dinner in Gayville, U.S.A. & you said "you can't swing dead cat without hitting a queer in here." Now, coming from you, it was hilarious. Coming from someone I don't know, or who I knew wasn't gay, could be very offensive & even scary.
And OMG, brunch is gay?
I had no idea.
