Perhaps you don't like guys, that's great, fine, dandy, you have your own preference. But jeesh, you don't have to make it sound like a flesh-eating disease.
I was JOKING. If you can't tell that from my tone, I'm not sure that's my problem.
I don't understand why you're so afraid of being seen as gay. Being gay isn't all that bad, is it?
I hate being seen as a girl. Because I'm not a girl. Why should gay/stright be different, hmm?
I hate this, "It's not that bad," thing people have said to me. Yes, it is. Why? I don't present as gay. Duh. Naturally, it bothers me to be seen as something I DON'T see myself as, or try to present as. IMHO, it's stupid to imply I should be HAPPY about it. That's just paranoia. Obviously, I don't assign values to being gay or straight outside of myself. At least, I THOUGHT that was obvious.
The whole panic-attack thing. I was supposed to be a GIRL once, and I still had panic attacks, so that didn't have anything to do with being gay, did it?
You can stop acting like I insulted you personally. I didn't. If someone gay said the opposite thing about being mistaken for straight (people on my friends list do), who's going to get insulted? No one. Duh.
Anyways, thanks for your thoughts on DAVID. [/sarcasm]
