She’s going to gay Mark up and go bar hopping in the West Village.

Make over Mark, get used to it.

Just out of curiosity in the 26 years since Mark discovered he was gay has he ever had a steady boyfriend?

I saw a 1970’s James Bond movie in the theaters and on commercial TV. It featured a pair of gay hitmen. ABC had no problem showing the two killing a dozen folks but cut the part of them holding hands.

Love the term sexual agnostic…I know people that term would fit.

Cut his hair? Why? Probably one of those “things”?

Okay, so everything is tracking but what does a haircut have to do with anything?

“Of course he’s gay.” A lot of people I knew back in high school and college have since “come out.” I was surprised exactly zero times to learn one of them was gay or lesbian. In her memoir, Tina Fey described the experience of trying to act surprised when one of her theatrical friends revealed he was gay. I could relate.

Let’s listen to some Lady Gaga !!! lol

Something you have to prepare for when coming out…all the people who aren’t surprised even a little. Comments I heard when I came out:

“Well, duh”

“You didn’t already come out?…I thought you did that years ago.”

“Finally…I have wanted to ask you if that guy you roomed with in college was gay too.”

“I’m so glad you’re out now, I have been wanting to fix you up with my cousin for the last year. You’ll really like him!” (Which was correct. He was my first serious relationship.)

Why do most people assume that gay is always about sex? Because hetero is most always about sex?

As an interesting side note, most actors in gay porn are straight because that’s where the money is for male porn actors. Women make the big bucks generally in straight porn.

J. J. is a barber, too? Cab driver, performance artist, barber. What can’t she do?
