My friend Todi had bought me a birthday gift while she was in France and just got around to giving it to me last Tuesday. For those of you who don't know, my birthday is during the first week of August. I happily accepted the gift, because it's kind of nice when your birthday just kind of continues like that, especially when you keep getting presents.
As I ripped away the wrapping paper, I slowly uncovered a calendar featuring a series of black and white shots of naked men in various poses.
Me: Todi, this is gay.
Todi: What?
Me: This is gay. I mean, thank you. I'll never hang this anywhere that anyone can see it, but it really is a nice thought.
Todi: What do you mean it’s gay? Look, here's a picture of a beautiful naked man on a horse!
Me: It’s GAY!
[Todi shows it to her friend]
Todi: Is this gay?
Todi's Friend: Yes.
Todi eventually took it back, against my mild protests and questioning as to the functionality of her gaydar. I didn’t want to seem ungrateful, but I have my limits.
