that doesn't surprise me though, that's what males want, and i guess what happens without females to keep guys in check.

i reckon that any human male has a better chance of getting his end away as a gay.

They generally are regarded as more manly looking or acting (depends, because you also get big barbaras too), so they are sought after by the chasers like a child in a candy store. I like manly types myself, but their appeal disappears if they are 'acting' like they belong to a category. I can also afford myself to do that, being the sexy swan that i am.

that hapens amongst heterosexuals too. we just dont talk about fucking each other.

so the macho philosophy really works amongst gays. that's understandable.

Not constantly, no way. There is also a certain type of gay man who feeds his sense of humour off shallow and repetitive camp humour that isn't funny in the slightest.

so what are all the categories and what do they mean?

bears
muscle marys
big barbaras
chasers

what else?

I suspect that a swan may be a gay categorisation too.

"Faithful to one lover"? Or just "likes to wear feathers"?

italian stallion?

Totally.

Bears - Big hairy types, not to be confused with overweight guys.
Chasers - Guys who are after sex with bears. They fall into two categories:

- Camp/fey types
- Butch and bearded types who are not fat.


Big Barbaras -I made this up myself to describe big hairy guys who are camp.

Chavs - They congregate mainly at scally nights in places like The White Swan in east london.

Gents - Guys who work or dress up as people who work in the city.

Not to mention those who seem to thrive on making bitchy comments to all and sundry. They deserve death, or at least a good shoeing in the gonads.

Yes, them. The sad thing is that they are not even half as witty or sarcastic as they think they are. I really hate people like that.

so what do you call gay guys who aren't fat and aren't camp and just seem like regular blokes? i know a couple who are like that

Guys.

Camp.

what's a camp gay? and a swan?

Somewhat overly camp?

That's an interesting question, if you consider that it's been scientifically proven that you are born with homosexual genes , if you discount people who have 'put on' sexualities. Those genes probably affect your vocal cords and that's why some men sound effeminate. There are also guys who camp it up to get noticed, but you know that already, you big girl, don't you?

yeah on the subject of genetics and at the risk of ruffling a few feathers i think that a lot of the time you can identify that a guy is gay just by their facial features.
