‘Am I gay?’ quizzes were commonplace in my internet search history as a closeted tween.

I have vivid memories of combing through each questionnaire, predominantly on BuzzFeed, answering questions about my favourite animal (guinea pig), envision job (acrobat turned weather reporter) and the sports I played (tennis). I also have vivid memories of manipulating each response to seem straighter than I was.

“What’s your favourite colour?”

Pink, I’d answer. Stay, no – grey! That’ll do the trick!

The ask would inevitably spit out an answer: “You are 72% straight.”

It’s important not to make assumptions.  Sure, there can be cultural or physical indicators here and there but at the end of the day, it really doesn’t matter.

There’s this idea that you can “spot” a queer person just by looking at them, and while it’s true that some queer folk disseminate their lifestyle (just enjoy how some wear football jerseys 24/7), many don’t.

My point is this, we have to stop immediately assuming that men (or people in general, really) are straight by default. What good does it do us? When we make these assumptions we are twice as likely to accidentally insult the people around
