I didn't want to Chris' "10 ways to tell if he's gay" thread so I'll ask the question here. Does anyone think there's such a thing? Do you think you've got it? If you do think there is such a thing, do you think it's more prevalent with gay men and lesbian women? Sorry if this has already been discussed.

Re: Gaydar?
As with most "extrasensory perceptions" it is probably a lot of observation that we intuitively do that we may not be conscious of. Discounting the flaming gay ppl and the non-gay metro-sexuals some str8 appearing gay ppl may give off certain "vibes" that we pick up on and that is where the gaydar is.
My gaydar doesn't always function properly. In the '80s I worked at a place where I did not know a co-worker was gay. I never connected the dots at the time - but later, years after I quit, we had some good times in bed.

Oh yeah it definetly exists, its all in the way you look at one another, a certain spark goes off! Its probably more dominant amongst gay men.

Re: Gaydar?
I guess some "sixth sense" can tell you if someone you don't know too well is, but for me I think a lot of GAYDAR has to do with the way guys look at me. Straight men don't hold eye contact with other guys any longer than they have to. Gay guys do.

So, you can spot gay men, even if they are Manly Cowboys?
(OK, so I'm in love with Jake Gyllenhaal - let me fantasize)

Re: Gaydar?
I guess there is....but mine is kinda shitty. You have be flaming for me to pick up on the fact that you're gay. If you're not the type to be overt about it, then I'd prob. wouldn't notice.
