I am also gay.
I'm turning seventeen in a week, but have been through more than many poeple will in their entire life. I came out when I was 14 just to give you an idea.
I know for a fact that NOT all gay men have to be effiminate, and admire straight male teenagers who are strong enough to have gay friends and not care about what their other friends will think of that.
I live in Montreal (Canada) where same-sex marriage is legal so, I really don't get what that Proposition 8 thing in California is all about. I personally think that it's one of the dummest things ever. But let's not get into a fight about that.
On the other hand, I'm actually really surprise (in a good way) to see that many ''non-straight'' people on this site, and in the Coaster Community in general.
I could go on and on, but I'll stop here as for now.
And oh, I'm new here (:
