If you're not gay enough for your gay friends, find new gay friends. Introduce yourself to one of the staff at an upcoming event.

It seems like I'm more of an outsider to the gay community at large, which I don't need to tell you is incredibly clique-y around this town.

I've been told that I'm the least gay gay guy he's known by one of my best buddies here, which I guess is a compliment. Then again, he's the type of guy who wouldn't feel threatened by a flaming queer either. Although I may have an unaffected demeanor in my day to day life, I fully reserve the right to flame out without any fear. I personally don't feel any antipathy towards flaming queens and nellies, but I also don't feel the need to act a certain way nor hang out in certain places to feel accepted. Happy New Year.
