My brothers new squeeze

Met my brothers latest girlfriend last Sunday night for the first time.


She's greek, and the real deal, emmigrated here only a couple years back so its all still broken english. She has a great figure for 30, big boobies, my brothers usual type, really pretty, with one exception, being greek she has a nose that looks like my left nad


Anyway, myself, brother and my mum were invited over hers for dinner.

Dinner...then sitting around chatting whilst watching TV, "Borat" happened to be on. She'd never seen it before (Yeah, I know, like who hasnt seen Borat?)

Laughing hard, its a funny movie, then we got to the scene where Borat and his fat friend are fighting in the nude, you know the scene, where Borat gets bicycle racked.

At that time out from her mouth comes " Oh my God, I think he has some kind of homosexual problem", my brother cracks a grin, my mum gives me that look that says "Let it go"

My blood starts to boil, my little brain kicks into overdrive. Nowadays, I dont have to go around telling people, they get that about me as soon as they meet me, and I didnt get the partner/girlfriend/married/kids questionaire from her at all during dinner. And my brother never bothers explaining me to anyone.

Still cant really identify why it made my blood boil such.It was either:

A) Yeah cos nothing personifies homosexuality like two straight guys bicycle racking each other, rolleyes
B) It was some snide little bitchy sneak attack comment
C) Shes a nice girl otherwise but not good enough to be the mother of my nieces/nephews
D) It hadnt clicked with her and I'm a little suspicious as to why a reasonably hot girl has such bad gaydar
E) Its a greek thing, natural tendecy to overcompensate for ancient greece being renowned for being the birthplace of not only the Olympics and Mathematics but also homos


Let me know which option you think it sounds like

 

So In Your Family, There Is One Gay Gorilla, And One Straight Gorilla..?

Sounds Like A Perfectly Balanced Family To Me.....



Cheers Glen.

 

C
...and her huge nose

 

If she knows you're gay she said it to be rude
B.

 

lol
Oh well, she probably doesn't have anything against it =)
Nevermind,
it's ok! people are people, and some of them don't understand things

It's funny that your brother grinned =P

 

straight people making a fortune, pretending to be gay/? where do I sign up?? Fuck borat !!...

 

One of my best friends at university was Greek, and he said that he wouldn't be able to come out to his family because they were very 'traditional' Greeks and they wouldn't have accepted him as gay. Perhaps, she is from the same type of background.

 

Ironic though isnt it, like being French and saying you dont like sticking your tongue down peoples throats. Not that of course all French people do, just sounds Ironic

 

It's sad that so many people feel that way, regardless of where they are from.

 

Maybe what bothered you is the way she said "homosexual problem."

If she's all that traditional, maybe she has never knowingly met a gay person. Maybe she knows that you're gay and is nervous about saying or doing the wrong thing.

 

^^i don't think she would use the word "problem" if she was nervous about doing the wrong thing.

i woulda got me a lil riled up too. situations like this has happened for me too. idk why either though cuz im not a dramatic person or anything, or one to even care for someone that said something they just didnt know.

i think shes a lil stupid. i guess i just imagine the situation weirdly. who the heck would say that to the Borat scene.
i guess it might've been not knowing enough english to mean it in a non-seperatist fashion. sounds like she just hasn't had much exposure to it. exposure to the language, and/or gayness in general. if you tell her, she'll apologize. well i mean if she doesnt, then choice C is an understatement and you'll really get down to the point. then after you tell her, she'll learn a lesson.

 

Well...errr....yeah, but a lot of the time "gay" is just the cover story, its not what they are actually getting angry at

This one cant look me in the eye, I know the difference between a girl that cant look me in the eye cos she gets flustered, or doesnt really look me in the eye cos there is no interest, or as in this case doesnt look me in the eye cos she gets confused, pulls that confused look, sees a tank of a man with girls eyes, its like the wrong way round for her. I get that. Its the same thing for me with some of the lesbians, the ones that look girly but have that guy stare.

I know that may seem like a bit of crazy talk, but you as a girl have a simliar set of rules, you know if a guy stares too much at your chest he's going to be a little to sex obsessed etc.

So from her direction, the angry is fine, is the confused version. From my direction though, dont know why the comment made my blood boil so much, but I am leaning towards option C, my little brain is picking up he's too serious too quick with this one, and I'm going to end up with a little niece with a nose like The Count off Sesame Street

 

IDK, but I think the balls are now in your brother's undies.

He should maybe ask GF what she meant by that, seeing as his bro is a homo. Then he can get back to you whether she has a strange sense of humor and was being facetious for your benefit or didn't have a clue.

As you mentioned, it could be cultural overcompensation. Yeah, I think it was on these forum boards where we encountered a modern Greek in denial about his culture's homo past. I so wanted to lay some Eraste wisdom on his Eromenos ass.

 

not sure, if she doesn't know you're gay then shrug it off since she doesn't know better and if she does, well i would be mad too but you dont have to like each other right?

 

it might be all of those if you could come up with them.

 

If I were you I would have corrected her BIG TIME. Tell her you think she has a little bitch problem...

 

Well the update is:

They've been over in Western Australia for the last couple weeks, just got back on Monday, and thus we all went out to dinner Tuesday night.

I brought monkeyluva along (my other half), She kind of got freaked out and edgy the whole night and my Brother amused she got freaked out

So it seems it was Option D, probably the first she'd encountered at close range, and SageDreamer wins this thread.


Anyway, night ended kind of early and reportedly they tore it up when they got home in my brothers words "like a crazy person" after a semi argument, she probably had to reaffirm the power of hetero or some shit, crazy bitches

 

Doesn't sound too bad and I don't think she's homophobic. Probably just shocked that Borat (as a hetro) would go that far for money

 

What exactly are you implying here - gay being a cover story, and you are a man with girl stare? And you write about lesbians with guy stare? A special "-dar" I have just went "beeep beeep beeep". Won't write it here in public though. And you needn't answer if you don't want to, of course.

 

Calm Down, Pour Yourself A Nice Glass Of Wine, And Read His Post Again.....



Cheers Glen.
