    I guessed like four of my friends weren't straight and was right for all of them so I guess it's pretty good.

    I have terrible gaydar, sometimes even when it's fairly obvious. My mother on the other hand can guess that a man is gay within a few seconds of observing him even when it's not obvious and has been proven right on several occasions.
     
  3. I definitely do not have a good gaydar.

    You see, when I see a person and inquire to myself if they are LGBTQ, it normally goes something like "Oh, she/he doesn't look like they are gay", but then I think "But of course, that doesn't mean anything! They totally could be gay!" However, I go "But what if they're not??" And that cycle is pretty much the description of my faulty gaydar XD

    I believe that us, as gay people, have a psychological connection to those other rainbows around us..... Haha, I'm just kidding. I think it may be just the way a person acts, talks, or looks that gives them away. My friend and I made a list of 16 of our other friends that we thought were gay, and almost all of them were bisexual. I really don't know how my gaydar works, but I definitely have one!

    I usually pride myself on my ability to read people, but my gaydar is horrible. I cannot, for the life of me, get one right.

    Asexuals are in black and white and demisexuals are gray or muted colors.

    I'd say my gaydar is pretty good, at least with fictional characters. I guessed it four books before it was even hinted at, and I've been able to tell with several celebrities and people on the street, even friends and acquaintances.

    Only stereotypical guys, and even then I don't know, because so many people I think are gay end up having a wife.

    I knew my friends older brother in highschool was gay before he came out, and suspect two other people from my town to be gay but they haven't come out.

    I'm pretty good with celebrities and fictional characters does that count for anything?
