Not necessarily. I have no inclination to talk about an AIDs Walk, my love life, or sexual identity with any straight man, unless he brings up the topic. That doesn't mean that a lot of people do not think I'm evil for being gay. A lot of people still refuse to be friends with gay people, at least around here. I've taken the policy to come out whenever I join a new environment for a long term stay - i.e. an office, etc. That way I can tell who I will and will not be getting along with immediately, rather than at some time down the road, when it invariably is brought up by someone.
Not to get on your or anything.. this is a serious question...
Did you ever stop to consider that some people might not wanna know, or wanna hear about your preferences? Perhaps they have a 'live and let live' attitude, and once you bring it up, you are putting them on a spot to make a choice... and if they choose not to agree with you, they will be haters.
Please dont misunderstand me.... I am not looking to troll, or falme bait here...
I just think that there are a lof of people who just dont wanna know... dont wanna have to be put on the spot to take a side.
