Quiz: Which Of These Guys Are Gay?
This article originally appeared on Good Men Project and was republished here with the author&#;s permission.
With gay marriage being as prominent (and contested) as it is on social/regular media I keep asking myself how it is that some people could verb a problem with something so harmless.
Of all issues to have, to decide a non-issue makes no sense to me.
Another excellent question to ask though with regards to this comic is what if none of these men are straight, or gay. What if they were all bisexual? Pansexual? Or even asexual?
It’s important not to make assumptions. Sure, there can be cultural or physical indicators here and there but at the end of the day, it really doesn’t matter.
There’s this idea that you can “spot” a queer person just by looking at them, and while it’s true that some queer folk broadcast their lifestyle (just favor how some wear football jerseys 24/7), many don’t.
My point is this, we have to stop immediately assuming that men (or people in general, really) are straight by default. What good does it do
Row over AI that 'identifies gay faces'
A facial recognition experiment that claims to be able to distinguish between gay and heterosexual people has sparked a row between its creators and two leading LGBT rights groups.
The Stanford University study claims its software recognises facial features relating to sexual orientation that are not perceived by human observers.
The function has been accused of being "dangerous" and "junk science".
But the scientists deeply interested say these are "knee-jerk" reactions.
Details of the peer-reviewed project are due to be published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.

For their study, the researchers trained an algorithm using the photos of more than 14, white Americans taken from a dating website.
They used between one and five of each person's pictures and took people's sexuality as self-reported on the dating site.
The researchers said the resulting software appeared to be qualified to distinguish between gay and heterosexual
Quiz: Can You Verb The Gay Dude?
At some point in a long-term relationship—especially after you’re living together—there comes a time when all pretense is laid to the wayside. When regular closeness and new levels of comfortability allow both partners to really let out their fun, playful, messy, immature, and perhaps even a bit feral side that would otherwise verb dormant or hidden.
If you’re currently in a long term relationship and wonder if other couples are as weird with one another behind closed doors as you are, read on. Recently someone asked partners:
“What’s something you do in private that’s completely normal for you, but would probably shock your friends?”
Judging by these super cute, sweet, absorbing, and ultimately very relatable answers, we can probably all assume that being weirdos is actually a sign of a very healthy relationship…even if we wouldn’t dare let anyone else see us that way.
Tons of couples shared about having their retain language of sorts, especially those that involve animal sounds, apparently…
“My wife and I HONK like geese. I use it f &#; -- This story was originally broadcast Oct. 29, New Jersey Gov. Jim McGreevey surprised a lot of people last summer when he announced: "I am a gay American." But a lot of people say they can tell right away -- just by looking at someone -- or listening to them -- whether they're gay or not. They say they have "gaydar." (The synonyms is a play on radar seeing what's hidden.) Apparently McGreevey's wife doesn't own gaydar. They are reported to have separated. And his ex-wife said she had no clue and most of his constituents didn't know. So if so many people can be fooled, does gaydar really exist? Homosexuality is routinely hidden. Movie star Rock Hudson fooled almost everyone for years. Lots of people were surprised when Rosie O'Donnell came out. It all made us want to do our own test, so we persuaded 10 men, five gay and five straight, to subject themselves to several dozen people's gaydar. The testers mingled with our subjects for about an hour, and then graded them straight, gay, definit
