Either she's got no gaydar or I'm that camouflaged

You are stealth gay, no? You are probably just flying below her gaydar range.

Although actually I don't even know if you count as gay to many people, and I'm pretty sure I understand the situation. You would be enough to trip anyone up.

I think gaydar is more like the ability to recognize stereotypes so if you don't match the stereotype then no one is going to pick up on it.

The whole idea is pretty silly to be honest.

No using. That's not what freedom is for.

Yeah, I've noticed people with claimed gaydar are incapable of picking out any gays who aren't walking around flapping their wrists and asking if the jeans they're wearing make their butts look big.

This. It's more sterotype-dar.

A secretary says she has awesome "Gay-dar." I am right in front of her: it's not going off at all.

She then starts talkin' about "teh gays."

Either she's got no gaydar or I'm that camouflaged
Truean: "Pff. I don't believe in that crap. Obviously, it doesn't work very well if you can't tell who the gay people in the office are." *walks away*
Secretary: "Waitwut? ???"

Whilst I have no gaydar, I do apparently have "pregdar", and have over the last 18 months been able to repeatedly spot women who are pregnant and have not announced it (normally less than 14 weeks gone). This did make for some awkward social situations. Also, no, I was not the one who made them pregnant. I must be super sensetive to hormones or suchlike. Now thats an awesome superpower to have.

Most people around here seem to think gays come in one of three types: Closeted gays, flaming gays, and Freddie Mercury.

I'm guessing Truen dodged the gaydar by being Straight Gay. Most people who claim to have gaydar do indeed work by sterotype. Some, though, are actually just good at picking up the subtle clues everyone drops unwittingly, like some sort of homosexual Sherlock Holmes mystery.

Life lesson: Never, ever even think about insinuating a woman may be pregnant unless you actively see a baby coming out of her at that very moment.

Consider that asking a woman if she is pregnant when she is not, is the same saying she is fat.

When I was your age, you had to steal your parents' credit card to view explicit content. Damn kids and their Facebooks.
When I was young, you had to answer inane questions to watch "explicit" content.

Somehow I doubt the usefulness of those questions as a measure of age.

I could have answered about half those questions at the age of Eight, for instance. Then again, I'm pretty sure I saw someone playing Leisure Suit Larry around that age and was grossed out. My parents never had to keep me away from non-pornographic adult material because by the time I was interested in that stuff they knew they could trust me not to get bad ideas from it. Not to mention I held my arm in front of my eyes with every kiss scene in a movie until I was ~14...

Now Porn on the other hand became a different matter once I hit puberty.

I wasn't a normal kid.
