ok, so I've been reading some posts and its like everyone knows if other people at their school are gay/lesbian/bi. But how? Is everyone openly gay or what? Because their deffently not where I'm from and I'm trying to figure out if one of the girls in my class is a lesbian or bi without directly going up to her and asking her (don't want to offend her if she isn't)
So whats it like where in your school/class? and how do I figure out whos gay and whos not?.Are there signs or something?

So have a good one everybody

Hey there.... hmm... I guess it depends on where you are and where you go to school... lots of schools have tons of openly gay kids because it's a welcome aspect of someone's life.  Others, don't.  I guess other than the stereotypical aspects of being gay, there is no way to tell for sure without giving yourself away at least a little.  I don't think it would be offensive (although everyone is different) if you were to ask her straight out if she were gay.  I know people in my area wouldn't be.  Plus, I look at it like this... I'm not offended when people ask me if I'm straight or assume that I'm straight so straight people shouldn't get offended when people ask if they're gay.  I mean "gay" shouldn't be an insult.   

I agree with you RaeRae, I don't think people should feel insulted if asked if they are gay , and most people I know wouldn't be (exsept the gays, lol) And where I'm from (Germany) most people are preety relaxed and accepting when it comes to homosexuals.
Only things is, if you ask someone directly you sort of give yourself away. So I was hoping to finding an alternative to that because i don't think I'm ready for everyone (aka. I live in a village, if one person knows, so does everyone else) to know that I'm gay.
First of all I would like to know ???

well, look for rainbows! then again they could just be really optimistic.
if you have a GYC at your school, that might give you a fews hints,
but if your school is like mine and only had two homosexuals in their GSA
out of 10 people, i suppose that wouldn't work out.

i don't think there are any definite signs, unless you see two people of
the same sex making out in the hallway. or in their car. or three people.

you catch my drift.

well, It's really about personality. B/c there are so many different styles out there it's very hard to actually say physical assets that set lesbians apart from straight girls. First off, you gotta ask yourself if she knows about your sexuality or not. If she does and makes it a point to talk to you each day, even if it's about something completely stupid then that's a good sign. Also, pay attention to the way she looks at you, and how much she looks at you. People generally want to be around others that share the same similarities. If she doesn't know about you maybe you should bring it up. Not flat out say, "Hey I'm a big ol' flamming LESBIANAAA!" or anything like that. Just kind of casually bring up the question, "So what are you views on gay marriage?" or something similar to that.

I normally have really on-the-dot gaydar but sometimes I have trouble figuring it out. If you want actual physical evidence, and this may not apply to her, but just look at the way she dresses. Does she wear tennis shoes or high heels? Pants or shirts? How short are her skirts? How lose are her pants? How does she wear her hair? How much make-up does she wear? What are her friends like and what crowd are they? How short are her nails?

That sounds like I'm promoting stereotyping but I promise you I'm not. I'm super femme but it's often very hard for me to find out if someone else is super femme or if they're just straight. If you guys are close enough just flat out ask her. But if your not don't try and freak her out either.

And like Saphica said: follow the rainbow!

yeah at my school it's pretty obvious who the gays are. They all hang with each other. At my school ppl are pretty open about their sexuality. How I can tell if someone is gay is by just being observant. This one girl who I was friends with was giving out a major impression that she was gay or bi. For one she never talked about having a boyfriend or any crushes she had during thew whole time I knew her. She also was very touchy with her girlfriends. So I asked her about it and she said she was bi. So basically just get to know her, and you can probably tell very easily.
