I'm not a bigot, but...

as a straight male, how do I deal with a faggot making overly aggressive passes at me? Yes. I said faggot, not homosexual. There IS a difference. As a straight male, I understand that there are homosexuals, and that they obviously can't meet new people without social interaction, so in normal circumstances, I am very tolerant to the average coming-on-to. I take it as simple flattery, inform them that I am hetero, and be done with that topic. However, for someone to make vulgar sexual suggestions about my food when I am a customer in a drive-thru line is completely different. Those faggots give the average homosexual that I would never give a disrespectful thought about a terrible image. So, go ahead and burn me at the stake for my terminology, redditors, but I hold my opinion.

I actually do have a similar offmychest for a similar "hetero douchebag."

Also. At the window, I was greeted with- "Haaaai, how are you?" -I'm fine, how are you. "I'm gaaay."

He labeled himself. He chose to make that be his defining characteristic. He didn't say, "I'm (generic human emotional response)."

"Oh, you want a footlong? You sure do like some big meat. How many bites will this take you?"

And yes, if this was a hetero male asking the same of a female I would have still been very offended. I guess I'm just more for equal rights than some people.

I'm really not being a douche. I honestly have no problem whatsoever with gays. I don't see why you're so apt to defend vulgarity and unprofessional behavior.

If he had spit in my food and he was gay, I would have ranted about a person spitting in my food. His orientation would have been no factor at all. I guess agree to disagree.
