I don't like your implication that being homosexual is negative. Let's just say that you feel uncomfortable with the assumption that you might choose a role different from the mainstream and leave it at that. I would like to see you address this issue too.

Now, I have some understanding of this as people mistake my own preference. I assume it is my short hair and it happens most often when I am wearing casual or sporty clothes. But I have learned to let this roll off my shoulder. I have even had people mistake me from behind as a man. Now this gets my goat. Now I have no real reaction when people mistake my sexuality. I make a point of embracing my gay and otherwise different friends for who they are not what they are. If you are unable to do the same you are missing out on what could be great friendships.
