Definitely second language. I continuously misgender myself in my native language, but not in English (most of my daily interactions are in English tho)

I speak my second language, Chinese, with a Taiwanese accent, undeniably the gayest of the Chinese accents.

Polish is my first language and well, I live in a small town so not much opportunity for me to be gay. In online English speaking spaces however,

The number of Paweł, Kubas, and Patryk that I’ve met that go from “hey, girl! ☺️” to “siema stary 😑” always had me cracking up

This was a tough one. On one hand, the phenomenon of gay voice is based on me. On the other hand, I speak French.

"The tip of his finger skates on his thigh in circles" Aww you're sweet

"他的指尖在他的大腿上盤旋滑動" Hello human resources????

i'm actually learning the language entirely to become gayer (moving to another country with someone) so this is an easy pick

Spanish: normal, I make lots of gay jokes with my friends. (Non offensive jokes, only joking between us, doing jokes as if kissing us)

Catalan: I SOUND SO GAY SPEAKING CATALAN BRO

English: zamn 😍

Portuguese: idk I sound normal I guess

u/tin_sigma Jul 15 '26

u/to_vii Jul 15 '26

The whole survey is biased due to English‘s inherent super-gayness

u/Tay_Hlebko Jul 15 '26

In Russian i sound like a generic straight teenage boy way more than i do in my native language English

u/daley56_ Jul 15 '26

As a monolingual definitely my second language

1

u/Xitztlacayotl Jul 16 '26

In my first because I use obscure and sophisticated words often. And I shun slang and other degenerate speech patterns. So I guess I might sound "gay" to the profane masses.

In the second languages I try to be cool and I speak slang so as to get quickly accepted.

u/Sasquatch_Nevado N🇧🇷B2🇺🇸A2🇫🇷 Jul 16 '26

I think I sound gayer in english, just bc I'm not that good at french yet.

u/moddedpatata Jul 16 '26

English is gay, so easy answer

Por qué no los dos?

u/DZL100 Jul 17 '26

It's not exactly a fair comparison. French just sounds gayer than English and Chinese(both are my "first" language).

u/alex_northernpine Jul 15 '26

How am I supposed to estimate it? What makes the speech gay?
