A ‘hetero woman’ married to a bi guy messaged: ‘I’m sure I’ve had the “Oh my God, she’s beautiful!” moment with a lesbian or two and tripped some gaydar.’ ‘It’s basically the same set of instincts I use when I notice that a girl is attracted to me, nothing magic.’Īnd women find the same thing. I’ve got a decent gaydar, but it’s based more on how people do or don’t catch my eye, the amount of attention they give me. ‘I’m a 30-year-old bisexual guy who is seldom attracted to men so it’s just simpler to be “straight”. One bi guy replied: ‘ Gaydar isn’t “oh that guy’s gay because he has a limp handshake and a lisp.” The biggest response – and it’s only taken until 2020 for us to get to this point – is that bisexuals exist. The user asked for ‘serious replies only’ and got them – over 3,000 comments so far and counting. The Reddit user asked: ‘Gay men of Reddit: Have you ever met a hetero couple, where you instantly knew the boyfriend / husband was secretly gay? If so, how did you find out?’ And it prompted people to share the very healthy response – bisexuals exist.
That’s the question one Reddit user posed. Do gay guys have an accurate gaydar that can spot a secretly gay boyfriend or husband in a straight relationship?
