Hit on by the wrong gender

[SkepticThinker]

I react the same as I do with my preferred gender(I'm only interested in the opposite). If showing no interest doesn't do it I tell them I'm not available. If they continue after that, well that's just as awkward if they are the opposite gender...

This is pretty much what I do. I try to flash my ring finger around a bit so they can maybe take the hint that I'm not available and I can avoid the whole having to turn them down part (oddly enough, this usually never works).

I don't enjoy getting hit on, in general, no matter which gender is involved. I really just don't like having much attention on me like that and it makes me feel awkward and uncomfortable. I guess I'm kind of a downer.

My guesses are 1) he likes going out to bars with his gay friend--not surprising, I've done the same. And I've had gay friends come to straight bars...so what?, or 2) he was wingman for his buddy.

Bit of both depending on whether he had a boyfriend at the time or not

Personally, I don't approach women to make passes on them. And no, I would not approach a lesbian and make a pass on them.



It would depend on how she'd take it. If I made a pass on a lesbian who showed no outward expression that she was gay and revealed to me that she was gay, I'd humbly apologize to her, but like I said, I don't make passes on people I don't know.



The "tripe" as you call it was fact actually, as all I did was reinstate Wikipedia. Xq28 is a coregulator, not a gene. Ask any geneticist. I think you have an emotional bias on your liberalism. It's called cognitive dissonance.

Xq28 is a chromosome band and a genetic marker.

"A genetic marker is a gene or DNA sequence with a known location on a chromosome that can be used to identify individuals or species. It can be described as a variation (which may arise due to mutation or alteration in the genomic loci) that can be observed. A genetic marker may be a short DNA sequence, such as a sequence surrounding a single base-pair change (single nucleotide polymorphism, SNP), or a long one, like minisatellites."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_marker


"A gene or (a fragment of) DNA sequence having a known location on a chromosome, has an easily identifiable phenotype and whose inheritance pattern can be followed.

Genetic markers act as chromosomal landmarks. They are used to trace or identify specific region of a gene (especially one that is associated with an inherited disease) on a chromosome. They are also used to determine a linkage group or a recombination event."
