How do I not act like a gay faggot?

We make the choices that determine who we are. You can (if you want) choose to be a kind, considerate, and decent human being--like a real person--even though taking off the mask you've been hiding behind may feel strange at first.

My former brother-in-law, dead now, was gay. Gay or not, he was the little brother I never had. Anyway, he went through a phase after high school where he took gay to eleventy, putting on an act so exaggerated and affected that it veered into the realm of cartoony and cringe.

Friends and family finally held a kind of intervention, where we told him we loved and accepted him but really needed him to knock it off and dial down the faggotry, so he did. It was a phase while he worked out who he was, and he got over and through it.

One of the nicest guys I've ever known. Dude would give you the shirt off his back, his last dollar, the keys to his car if you needed it.

If you want to be taken seriously, behave in a serious manner. If you are speaking of IRL face to face kind of communication, think of 4 of the five senses. Sight, sound, smell and touch. Do you look like a serious person or do you wear ridiculous clothes? Develop a sense of style that is less risky and more pragmatic and extend it to hair and make-up. Do you sound serious? If your inflection and tone are wishy washy listeners will never get past it. You can work on it yourself or join Toastmasters or another public speaking or drama club. Never smell like patchouli. Instead of perfume choose a body mist that is fresh and vibrant like citrus or vanilla. It is very important to use touch appropriately. Mostly don't use touch gestures unless with close friends and family.

When hiring, here are a few things that I will cut an applicant for:
  • A weak handshake
  • A bad odor
  • Dishevelled appearance
  • Inappropriate attire
  • Being Indian
  • Identifies as LGBTQ+ (L and G are OK as long as they don't identify as victim)
  • People who sing when they speak. Almost always women and gay men.
  • No eye contact or too much eye contact
  • People who are ill-prepared
If you happen to be Indian disregard and go back to India because that is the only place on the planet you will ever be taken seriously no matter what you do.
