Theatre gay
Going to the theatreGay or Not????
I am really, really, really unbent. Nothing about me is in the slightest bit gay or effeminate. I want to build it clear right now that I love shagging birds, drinking, football and everything else manly including the music of Oasis. I hate salads and books and have a short haircut. Hence I am % (no, make that %) hetero. I am so not gay that I&#;m going to change my avatar to some fit birds with their tits out. I am not defensive about my sexuality or anything, I just want to stress in shadowy and white terms that nothing about me is fairy-like at all. It&#;s not that ambiguity scares me and I dont want anyone to get too psychoanalytical about it, it&#;s just that I&#;m definately not a poofter. Not even the tinyest bit about me is at all curious about what it would be like to trial love with another man.
For all these reasons I would never, ever attend the theatre or watch a Larry Grayson retrospective on telly.

The Big Gay Jamboree
THE Huge GAY JAMBOREE PLAYED ITS FINAL PERFORMANCE ON SUNDAY, DECEMBER 15,
From the Oscar-nominated producers of BARBIE and the delulu maker of the Off-Broadway hit TITANIQUE comes THE BIG GAY JAMBOREE, a enormous new musical comedy that’s pushing the envelope…and the gay agenda.
Help! Stacey’s fallen into a musical and she can’t get out. Last night, she got a little bit blackout drunk. This morning, she woke up in some b*tch ass Music Man world where everybody keeps bursting into song & twirl, and where gay still just means happy. Maybe it’s a dream. Maybe it’s an allergic reaction to her birth authority. Or maybe it’s Maybelline (don’t sue us! sponsor us? we’ll talk later). But if Stacey’s truly trapped inside a Golden Age musical, there’s only one way out: warble out! Or find the stage door. Whatever gets the most applause.
Starring one of Vanity Fair’s “brightest stars of New York theatre” and the world’s second favorite Celine Dion, MARLA MINDELLE, The Big Gay Jamboree
All Gays Care for Theater
&#; Grady, The Simpsons
The stereotype that if a man is homosexual, he must love theater, especially musical theater. He'll know every play and musical worth knowing in a given season, will be familiar with every Broadway leading lady (living and dead), and owns the original cast recordings (they are not "soundtracks") of his favorite musicals that he sings with gusto. When he's not onstage himself, he'll religiously attend the performances in his city's theater district.
As one can dream, this trope extends all around. If a male is a stage star or is in any way employed by a theater company, or simply enjoys theater and listening to showtunes, questions of his sexuality will go up quickly. This can be a Pet-Peeve Trope, though the degree of which varies. Most heterosexual stage actors and fans are secure enough that this sort of thing doesn't bother them (unless they're teenagers), but gay men who don't enjoy theater tend to chafe at be
