question. where did the old phrases for homosexuals come from?
>people in 2010
<mom, dad, sorry to tell you this, i'm gay
>people in 1989
<mom, dad, sorry to tell you this, i might be a little light in my loafers. i might be stuck in the closet, a real friend of Dorothy sapphos and alexander the great. a true patron of the arts. A confirmed bachelor. an interior decorator. i think i love playing in the dirt, i think i have sugar in my tank, a litlle bit fruity, i might be a thongs trader, a fudge packer, i think i enjoy taking care of my hair too much, i think i practise forbiden french hobbies, i think i'm polari expert, i think i smoke without filters, i think i love standing on my hands, i might take my meat trays around the backdoor, i play for the other team, i dance at the other end of the ballroom, i might be theatrical, i think i'm too good with colors, perhaps i'm a shirt lifter, backward mechanic, a wedding singerman, i'm on the down low and in a rush, uphill gardener, i think i have love for my freinds, the love that dare not speak Its name, i really love dancing at cabarets, jeans cutter, i might be one with the Uranian empire, i might have mood swings and fear of society, i might be the best damn designer, fashionist, curtain and cushions decorator you've ever seen! i could be a refugee from sodom, a tourist from greece, a rose smeller, a bent mary, a wizard of fairies……if you get my meaning

i just asked a question about where did all the lingo come from i meant no harm :(

>>1752
>>1752
sorry m8, but I must arbitrarily sage this for no reason at all

but to answer your question……… I have no idea

>>1738
Well from the top of my head I think can try my hand at these:

Before going through each, I'll just say a lot come from homosexuality in men being seen as feminine, I'll just call this reason 1 (r1).

>little light in my loafers

Not heavy, hence feminine, r1.
>i might be stuck in the closet
Mention to the closet, no idea why closet in specific is associated with hiding identity but there you go.
>a real friend of Dorothy
Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz" only hung around groups of men, without any of them expressing any interest in her
>ditto sapphos
Sapphos was an ancient greek lesbian poet
>ditto alexander the great
He, and many other greeks, had male lovers. See Hephaestion’s and Bagoas
>A confirmed bachelor
19th century euphemism for gay men
>interior decorator
Feminine interest, r1
>i think i love playing in the dirt
From anal sex, possibly
>i think i have sugar in my tank
Sugar is sweet, hence feminine, hence r1
>a litlle bit fruity
ditto
>i think i enjoy taking care of my hair too much
Vanity is feminine, r1
>i think i practise forbiden french hobbies
British stereotype of french as feminine, r1
>i think i'm polari expert
Secret language of concidentally british gay men from the 20th century
>i might take my meat trays around the backdoor,
Anal sex
>i might be theatrical
r1
>i think i'm too good with colors
r1
>backward mechanic
Anal sex possibly?
>a wedding singerman
r1
>the love that dare not speak Its name
I believe Oscar Wilde coined this description while being trialed for buggery
>i might be one with the Uranian empire
Uranian, 19th century term for gay men, one of the first too
>i might be the best damn designer, fashionist, curtain and cushions decorator you've ever seen!
r1
>i could be a refugee from sodom
Biblical city destroyed for many sins, including sexual deviance
>a tourist from greece
Greece is often associated with gay love, see Alexander the Great above
>a rose smeller
Roses smell sweet, sweet's feminine, r1
>a wizard of fairies
Fairies are for girls, hence feminine, r1

There's a very odd one from my homeland but I'm afraid to dox myself so I'll keep quiet about it.

i don't get this one, do you have to show romantic intrests in every womanoid you ever stumble on? if you don't hit on any and all women in your radius you are gay

>>1762
You'll be suspected of being gay. They'll at least think your a little weird. At least speaking as straightoid. I mean I'm a weird but I like women I just don't talk to them although I don't really talk to guys either

>>1764
you just like me man i started avoiding people to escape meaningless frendship dramas

i think it's refrence to some poem butween him and Lord Douglas

>>1755
thx

i still wonder about the secret euphemisms related to playing for the other team, on the wrong bus, dancing at the other side of the ballroom. could be also words for r1 but in a none direct language, as in he's "switching" teams from macho to girly
