Subject: IMAGINE Magazine Question for 5/15



"He really set off my Gaydar!", "He never even registered on my Gaydar!", or my favorite, "My Gaydar must be broken!"

Some describe it as a kind of sixth sense, others play it off as simply being able to sense "Their own kind", but all claim to have the ability to just know that someone is gay because their "Spidey" sense tells them so. To be honest, I've had friends that claim to have excelent Gaydar and have called it correctly more times than I'd be comfortable saying it was a coincidence, but it's got to be luck, right? Are they making a guess when it isn't obvious, if so how often does effeminate give a false Gaydar reading? I mean, I kind of think that as time moves on and acceptance makes it less important to be "different', the need to "stand out intentionally" isn't as important so it would make it more difficult to tell. Total opposite of needing to hide it, same effect in the end. Or am I wrong.

So what do you think? Is Gaydar some kind of 'fabulous' myth or  can it be listed right up there with telepathic ability? What are YOUR thoughts? 💜
