"I don't know why they were surprised when I came out 20 yrs later"
I think that parents are in denial, as I said, I played with Barbies, even my dad bought me a doll once, and he took me to see Liza Minnelli's concert when I was 14(after I begged him to) and yet, yes...they had no idea I was gay.

Many many many signs over time. The first one I paid attention to was in 1980 when I was fifteen and fell in love with my sister's boyfriend!!
"for the record no"
Well, that's usually a good sign that a guy is gay.
Daddy said "wave to the camera" and I gave him this.
Burt Reynolds gave me a boner.
I may have already posted this but: When I was 12, I had pictures of Annie Lennox and Billy Idol hanging by my bed. When I was "discovering" myself I found that Billy's sweaty armpit and blonde chest hair turned me on much more than Annie's coolness.
Oh, and if I ever meet Sting, I am going to have to thank him personally for taking his shirt off in the "Don't Stand So Close To Me" video, which also informed my masturbation fantasies a LOT.

Annie Lennox ?
she's not exactly the fantasy of many heterosexual young men, now is she borstal?
n69n, you look like Lilo.
The first signs I was not straight...[although I hesitate to call myself gay since I have had more relationships with men than women] had to date back to high school and a mind-warping crush on one of my girlfriend's and feigning many crushes on boys that were said to be hot all the while harboing secret crushes on the skinny, nerdy, or effeminate ones.
I played with my sisters Barbie's. Later when I had a Big Jim I made furniture for his house and decorated it with wallpaper and carpeting.

I think holding boys against the wall until they let me kiss them when I was 5 was a pretty good indicator.
As was the...er...other stuff.
excellent...really!
That was for MMatt...
huh, i'm decorating for my big jim, too, kansas!
My Big Jim was only about 8" .................... tall
Matt...how about Men at Work?
mine's about 8" too. freaky!
Also wanting this one probably concerned my parents.
Just your height then RobbO heh
kinda tall for me, but...
oh, and i thought for sure that jaily's sign would have been: "ped xing"
8", eh, Robb?
Well, lordy, next time we all get together, I'll just put the camera on your head. Make sure you stand still, though...I don't want blurry pictures this time.
like big foot and loch ness, i've never taken an unblurry picture in my life.
You can PM them to me.
