Do you find 'campness' annoying?

Campness is like some kind of woman magnet. Camp guys tend to be surrounded by other girls....although thats most likely because they think of them as "one of the girls."

Yeah, it's weird. I can understand women wanting to be friends (well, not all women), but to be sexually attracted to him?

Plough your own furrow pilgrim, what other people do should not really impinge on your enjoyment of life.What they do is their business,you do what you think fit.
Being unduly influenced by the perceived idiosyncrasies of the general populace is ,to me anyway, a sign of insecurity,and perhaps underlines a latent flaw in your own personality.

get off your f*cking horse

is your brother or something a screaming camp ghey?

Nope, but just as you find screaming camp gays annoying, I find judgemental people to be annoying.

Also I enjoy picking holes in transparent arguments - you said you didn't know any women who acted like men, as if they simply do not exist. I do know women like that, so I contradicted you.

Also, the phrase, "I'm not homophobic, but" gets on my nerves. It's like saying "I'm not racist, but" or "No offence, but"... it doesn't automatically excuse you from then saying something homophobic or offensive. It's not a get out of jail free card. If you hate gays, say so. At least then you won't be a hypocrite. And if you have a problem with two men 'rubbing balls' (might need to watch some gay porn and figure out what it is gay men do in the bedroom, btw) whether they're both bald or not - then you are a homophobe.

I seriously dont get it with gay guys, their sexuality becomes them and it alters every area of their lives! Their vocabulary, how they dress, the tv they watch its ridiculous. If your gay that should only go as far as describing your sexual preference, it shouldn't predispose you to dress a certain way, speak a certain way as it does with the majority of gay men!

Is judging a judgmental person not also judging?

You didn't contradict me, I don't know any women that act like men, you do, great, how am I contradicted?

I never said I'm not homophobic but, I said I'm not homophobic I'm campophobic.

I don't want to be excused from saying something offensive campy men annoy the f*ck out of me I don't want to be excused for saying it, How am I being hypocritical? i''m only sharing my ****ing hatred for camp gay squeeky girls along with about 85% of the vote of the poll if you cared to check

once again the rubbing balls thing was a joke about mairt and his baldy slap head and the way he put across his statment amused me I don't give two hoots what homosexuals do sexually is that sinking in yet?

so get down off your high horse and if you dislike judgmental people so f*cking much try practicing what you preach.

When I first read the thread title I first associated "campness" with camping in online games.

It's a legit strategy btw, though spawn camping is unsporting in my opinion.

It's possible to be repulsed by certain sexual acts or by the vision of certain people engaged in sex (in this case two big bald burly men) without being homophobic.

It could simply be prudishness. For instance the thought of a guy rimming another guy seems a bit disgusting to me. Does that mean I'm a homophobe? No. It just means I think licking a guy's arse is gross.

It impinges on my enjoyment when the squeek is in my ear when I'm trying to enjoy a pint and match with the lads and some idiot is screeching around the place like he's in the rovers return.

What the morons do or act like or talk like when I'm not in ear shot is entirely up to them.

I don't like the sound of some f*cker drilling his walls at 7am on a sunday morning but it doesn't mean i have some self confidence issue it just means i like my sleep.

how it has any relevance to insecurites i don't know there's sound that annoy people

someone scraping a plate with a fork, someone scratching a black board mine happens to be screetching camp gays.

see the difference young man?

No thanks. I'm not homophobic and I don't really mind the campness either but I'm happy enough being straight.

Camp can be very annoying. A few years ago on a night out I ended up kissing a guy who turned out to be incredibly camp (I didnt notice at the time as I was quite drunk and I thought it was another guy I had spotted earlier). We exchanged numbers and met the following night for a drink. Oh dear. If I had walked away it would have been shallow so I decided to give him the benefit of the doubt. Big mistake. He latched onto me and wouldnt let go and I was too polite to tell him to f**k off. Anyway, the next day I still hadn't managed to get rid of him, we went for breakfast and a look around the shops. Sweet Jesus I was ready to kill him. I was embarassed to be seen with this guy cos he was so camp. He actually tried on a tshirt in a shop and then proceeded to do a mock runway walk down the middle of the shop floor!

It annoys the hell outta me. I just don't understand it. Fine you're gay, but why act like a woman, and put on that girly voice? Yes, I said put on. Thats not the voice you grew up with. I don't care if you're a fashion designer, you don't need to talk like a female.

Ouroboros

Im imagine there are people who are naturally flamboyant, but it might be worth considering why so many people who are gay feel the need to adopt such a stereotyped behaviour.

Sexuality/gender/whatever is a pretty important way in which we define ourselves and others. Society is comfortable with the two archetypes - Male and Female - and the roles they have, anything that doesn’t nicely pigeon hole into these two definitions is an unknown, a potential threat. So perhaps people who are gay act camp as a means to try to avoid the ambiguity both for others and themselves, to carve out (or rather embrace the archetype) of a third gender, a non threatening (very) obvious stereotype: Im here, Im queer, you don’t have to worry about me?
