I got hit up on last night, by a guy. In a lesbian bar. He insisted I'd made a mistake about gay.
First of all, he sat next to me and talked my fucking leg off, and obviously hitting on me. I tried to engage in other conversations, but he wouldn't leave me alone or STFU.

I did finally tell him, "you do know this is a gay women's bar, don't you?" He said yes, I do know that. But I think lots of straight women come here, so I don't want to exclude the possibility of meeting women here. Some eventually realize they made a mistake, and haven't met the right guy yet.

Well, I was just about ready to belt him. I complained to one of the owners, who happens to be one of my best friends. She said he comes in on occasion and does this savior shit, but he never stays long. So I held my powder.

I absolutely hate confrontations, so I ignored him. At least I tried. He grabbed my shoulders and persisted on pursuing more conversation. He wanted to know if I had been treated badly by some man, and if I had made a mistake deciding I'm gay.

I said, no, I've not been treated badly by men. And yes, I did make a mistake. Which was ever being with men in the first place. Because I'm gay. I think he saw the fire in my eyes, because I was getting plenty annoyed with him.

He did leave shortly after that. He's lucky I'm pretty cool-headed, and the owner talked me down. I was about ready to bloody his nose.

I left early.

Men friends? Fine. I have several. But fuck buddies or trying to "cure" me; not appreciated. Not at all.

BTW, this is not an April Fools joke.

1. You could've asked if he was treated badly by a man
and reassure him that he just needed a good homosexual lover to fix him.

8. I'd say that is a blueprint for how NOT to pick up a woman,
no matter the sexual orientation. It's that "God's gift to women" attitude that is the turn off.

17. I honestly cannot imagine who that would impress.
Maybe it could still be used though. If you see a guy treating a woman like that, you could "rescue" her from him by skipping a chair and talking to her like an everyday regular conversation. She might take the hint and move over a chair and talk to you, thereby leaving the asshole to himself.

You'd be truly rescuing her (from him) AND probably make a friend out of it. She might know straight female friends. :thumbsup:

24. That reminds me of one time when
I was trying to order a sub and a guy kept on flirting with me. When I asked for a small Italian he said, "Here I am!" I replied that he was awful secure to announce he was small in public. He got the hint and left me alone after that.

4. I cannot think of anything worse than that.
I despise that type of attitude more than anything else in this world. In all sincerity, if the people who get by with gay bashing because of feeling "creeped out" by a gay person get to get by with their gay bashing bullshit, why can't lesbians deck a guy who won't fucking goddamn STFU?

If I ever got to deck some sombitch who was hitting on me using those codewords (choice, "the right man," "man hater,") and being pushy about it like that (KEEP YOUR FILTHY MITS OFF MY PERSON, ASSHOLE!), and get away with it, I'd do it in a heartbeat. I'd show them a bashing they'd never forget. :mad:

God, that's my biggest pet peeve with people.

Sometimes I'm afraid I've stepped out of bounds. I think you're super-cool and hot and all that, as I do some other lesbians (and even a gay guy or two), but I'm often afraid that saying that isn't the right thing to do, even if I'm not pushy about it. I'm still learning all this as I go along.

133. Good god, I hear you. I prefer to do things like this quietly and politely.
But good god damn, after I'd made it completely clear that I was on ignore mode, he had the fucking nerve to come GRAB me, and insist he could "change my world", in so many words.

That's when I had fire in my eyes. The owner told me she was watching the situation. I had to visit the biffy. I don't know when, what, why, or how. He was gone when I came back.

Good thing, for him. I was about ready to knock his smarmy teeth out.

If the person is making other customers feel like that, they should be kicked out. Why keep that one obnoxious customer around when he may be running off one or more other customers? Your idea is the best one I've seen yet.

14. Yep
There could be mitigating circumstances. Perhaps he has been threatened with a good old 86-ing and threatened to sue in retaliation. If the bar owner isn't wealthy or the town is anti-GLTB, that could be pa problem. Dude sounds like the type that would threaten to sue.

If banning is out of the question, then it's time for ostracizing and shaming.

142. No, he is not hanging an 86'd thing for retaliation. And what could possibly be his argument???
That he is a straight guy going into a lesbian bar to find a date?

I would think that even a freeper judge would find that ridiculous.

Oh, I forgot. He has a "magical dick", and is just the right guy to turn any lesbian woman right again.

:eyes:

Give me a fucking break.

I'd like to buy a vowel now.

He never stays over an hour or so, thus I'm told. He spends money; they make a few bucks. It's business.

All niceties aside, even from a completely ruthless business perspective, a couple bucks every now and then isn't worth alienating regular customers.

138. He'd be unwelcome if I were in charge.
Actually, the owner might have kicked him out, I'm not sure.

I had complained to her about him. I told her he would not take a hint to leave me alone, or STFU.

I had to go visit the biffy. I don't know what happened while I was in there. I just know he was gone when I came back out. She may have kicked him out. I didn't ask questions.

I just knew if that asshole propositioned me one more time, I was gonna smack him in the chops. How many times and ways can one say NO!

18. Yeah, he made a mistake pulling that crap in a bar for lesbians, but
Edited on Wed Apr-01-09 08:42 PM by Mike 03
how old was he?

I think a lot of straight guys have developed a crush on lesbian women, and that that fantasy of being with them can be strong sometimes. But hopefully it passes as we get older.

But I'm sure it was annoying as hell, especially in that location. That is just obnoxious.

EDIT

To this day I have a huge crush on Ellen Degeneres, but I have no "fantasy" of ever meeting her, let alone winning her love...

Like you explained, fantasies are one thing. Actively trying to "change" someone's sexual orientation is when that person has crossed the line. Well said.

Sometimes if you get a crush on someone (and I'm not saying that was his case with you), it can override civility, logic and reason.

But nevertheless, you are right: it is wrong.

111. You have to wonder what makes someone so absolutely
sure of his fantasies or wishful thinking that he takes them so seriously, and feels comfortable spouting that shit in public.

If his delusion about his 'magical curative sex power' didn't fit acceptable bigotry he'd end up in a psych ward for that kind of thinking.

77. Who care about fantasies? We all have them!
I'm a bi woman who is ALL about the slash fanfic (if you don't know what it is, google it) as a hobby and a private wanktasy, but I don't go to gay bars expecting men to perform for my benefit.

Private fantasies are great; no harm, no foul, as long as they stay private.

Making actual real people uncomfortable for the sake of your fantasies? Not cool. Not OK. Really, really not. I really especially hate the idea of LGBT spaces being exploited as places for "adventurous" straight suburbanites to "get their ya'yas out" before settling down with socially-approved co-breeder partners in the suburbs, with no increased social/political awareness involved.

20. Oh, honey ............
I had the opposite happen to me.

I was with a bunch of gay pals in a gay bar - all male. I was the only female there, which was often the case, but I knew a lot of the people there.

So this guy starts hitting on me. At first, I didn't get it, because, you know, I'm a woman in a GAY BAR. But he persists and finally I said, "You do realize this is a gay bar, right?"

Oh, yes, he understood it. Some of his best friends, you know.

So then I said, "You do understand that I'm not here looking for a sexual partner, right?"

He said, "Well, of course. A beautiful lesbian like you doesn't have to look for a partner, I'll bet."

I had to tell him that I was straight, just having a fun night out with my friends.

He assured me that I didn't have to lie to him, but, if I chose, I would experience a kind of ecstasy with him that would change me forever.

I sent him to get us a tube of Glide, and when he left, I got my buddies to hide me and not let him near me.

The manager persuaded him to leave, and he did.

What IS it with these guys?

25. Why do people think they can change your mind? You know?
It reminds me of the Seinfeld episode when Elaine wanted dude to change teams. Like you choose the team. You just belong to that team. Really, who would "choose" that? With all the shit that goes along with it. People looking down at you, not letting you get married, so many stereotypes... Who would choose that? Duh! It is just the way you are. And it is as natural as my love for my husband. When will people get that?

I do think we are progressing. Slowly, yes, but, I see my Bella not knowing that it is any different for a man and man or woman and woman to be married. I hope that anyway.

35. Honestly I never gave much thought at all about gay people until
I read "Prayers for Bobby" way back in college. It gave me so much perspective. All of those people who believe you choose this "lifestyle" are freakin fools.

I look at my parents and grandparents who accept it now but didn't use to. And I hope that so many more are like me and will teach their children (who are our future) to love and accept people based on their actions towards humanity. I do see us moving forward. I just wish it was at a much faster pace.

38. A buddy of mine..my ex's brother...
had a straight,female, friend who was convinced she could turn him straight if only he would have sex with her. Of course he never did. Once it was realized that she was never going to get to sleep with him, she started hating everyone and everyone who was still friends with him. This was four years ago and she STILL won't talk to me. People are goofy.

76. Billy is a very good looking guy and people melt over him
this girl had herself convinced that he wasn't really gay and that any day now she was going to sleep with him. Billy and I went to the clubs one night and came back to my place to crash since it was so close to downtown. When we got to his apartment where he and his female friend lived, she FLIPPED OUT!! She cried, "You had sex with Billy!! I know you did!!!" she thought that everyone was having sex with Billy but her. This girl and I were good friends for a long time before BIlly came into the picture, and after her living with Billy, thinking she was going to have sex with Billy, she was never the same again. There is no one on this earth worth getting so obsessed over,I tell ya'....

80. I had a friend like that in college.
Male. Gay. So very gay. Had the cajones to come out in his high school in Cincinnati in the mid-80s - first student ever in that school system to do so.

I didn't disrespect his gay identity - I was just so crushed out on him because he was so much more fun to be with than most males I'd known (except the ones I always put mentally in the "friends only " category. DUH - of COURSE, those are the best men!). I just thought, somewhere in the back of my mind, that I was SO good in bed that I could eventually get him to have sex with me and enjoy it. I mean, I could give a blowjob as good as any man, right? It's not like I hadn't practiced!

Never happened, really. No matter how many mushrooms he took, the best I ever got out of him was one french kiss laden with peyote and wine, and there was no followup.

Now? Doesn't matter one whit. I like being his friend. If I'd pushed harder 20 years ago, he could have written me off as an attempted-rapist (and been right). I'm SO much happier to get an invite to his and his husband's wedding!

I don't think this guy has any and to think he's tolerated because he spends money but doesn't stay long enough to push enough buttons to a breaking point is something I find interesting. A lot of bars do this, they wait until a confrontation becomes physical before they find themselves forced to do something.

68. Where to start...
Bar+Y chromosome+alcohol =idiocy in the presence of females. It has always been so. Nevertheless, an apology on behalf of the gender is in order.

On a more serious note: I suspect the guy is a harmless moron with an inflated opinion of himself, but - as has been said elsewhere in the thread - don't assume that. If he's hanging about, steer clear, get someone to walk with you .... you know the drill.

Look, I certainly don't CONDONE physical violence.
I'm well aware of the fact that it never
makes anything better for anyone.

But, I have to admit that it's a thing that cannot be described with words.
Right or wrong, it's a LEARNING EXPERIENCE.
And it's just a part of human nature.

Win or lose, I highly recommend that you try it at least once.
It's an eye-opening CARTHARTIC experience that provides
some serious insight into "the human condition".


Win or lose...if you'd prefer to WIN, I can offer some advice
about dropping jackasses in their tracks.

PM me sometime.

I realize this is not an 'exclusive women-only' place but you'd think someone who was making it uncomfortable for women in a bar geared towards woman should be removed from the bar.

116. Well, that's not a dumbass question.
This is a lesbian bar, and sometimes gay men stop by too. They are never a problem. Nor are the straight guys who stop by to deliver beer, play karaoke, or do DJ on any particular night any problem. Nor do their presence have any macho bullshit feelings about a gay bar.

That guy WAS offensive. He didn't really want to turn me straight, he just wanted to get his rocks off. Oh, go stick in your ear. I'll slap him snotless if I see him again. I think he knows that.

120. Yes, he did grab me by the shoulders to talk in my ear. After I'd made it pretty clear
I was avoiding him. I was escalating conversation with others, on purpose, and to get away from him.

Yes, he did come grab me by the shoulders. And told me quietly in my ear, that he could "fix" me, cause he was so good.

That's when I turned around to look at him, and was ready to slap snot or draw blood. He left shortly after that.

I swear, if I ever see him again, and I bloodied his nose, the other women would say "nope. I didn't see a thing. Let's just move along. Nothing to see here"

Moral of the story? Don't go to gay women bars to pick up dates, or to convert queers. It's plenty rude.

Try me. I have backup.

Her friends brought her to a gay bar (mostly a guy bar, but there are some regular women), specifically so they could just have a good time and not have to worry about being hit on (they WERE pretty attractive ladies, to be sure). For whatever reason, she latched on to me and kept asking me if I was SURE I was gay, but I think it was 80% the alcohol and maybe another 19.9% of her emotional state. I bought her a bottle of water (she needed to sober up), gave her my $0.02 about her boyfriend problems, and wished her well when they left.

But this guy you're describing.... He needs to find another tactic to get laid. He's going to get his clock cleaned one of these days (not that he doesn't deserve it).

127. You remind me. There was a gal who blew through town from Texas a couple years ago.
She hit up on me first. I quickly figured out she just wanted a one-nighter fuck buddy. I declined, and told her that wouldn't interest me. She wasn't even the least bit appeasing.

So she proceeded around the bar. I just sat there, and kept my mouth shut. She must have hit every single woman in there that night, but got nowhere.

She finally got back to me. She was awfully pissed off that she didn't get a fuck buddy for one night.

She: Are you really sure you are gay? Cause I'm not feeling it from you.

Me: Well yes, I'm pretty sure I'm gay. Positive, in fact.

She: Want to come to my hotel room?

Me: I thought I already told you I was not interested in a one-nighter, fuck buddy.

She: Are you sure you are really gay?

Me: Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Why would you ask?

She: Well, I've given you an "opportunity", and you don't seem to be the least bit interested. You should really re-decide if you are gay, or not.

Me: Okay, I'll think about it. (*grumbling under my breath*)

Let's see, I must re-decide my sexuality, cause I didn't want to fuck YOU.

:rofl: :rofl:

128. You were much nicer than I'd have been.....
Let's just say that I have very specific tastes in men, and 90% of the guys who hit on me (as nice and attractive as they may be) don't really interest me (and I'm not on the market anyway, so it's a moot point). Most of the time, they take no for the answer and move on- no harm, no foul (can't fault a guy for asking, right?). A few times they prod further, but I've never had a guy question my gay-ness, and how sure am I that I am, indeed, gay. I'm pretty sure I'd have some choice words....

:rofl:

129. Well now, you just made my point. I am a gay woman, but that doesn't mean
I am attracted to, or want to screw every woman on the damned planet! I'm pretty normal, and not interested in every woman anymore than a hetero person is attracted to everyone of the opposite sex. It just doesn't happen that way.

That is what so amused me about this woman from Texas. She could not even engage in conversation. She had a different, and specific goal.

:eyes:

Yeah, she came back to me as her last resort. And since I was not interested, there must be something wrong with me. And I should re-examine if I'm really gay.

Good fucking grief. How damned arrogant.

123. And why? Why do people contemplate stupid shit like that?
This guy waltzed into a queer bar, thinking he could switch some, or at least one, into going straight because of his mighty penis and fucking abilities.

Are people really that stupid?

119. He sounds like a rotten small town cop with connections, "saving" the world.
This is totally old school harassment and intimidation of homosexuals, and probably women in general.

If the bar keeps letting him in and he's behaving like this then maybe he has some connections that could place the bar's license in jeopardy.

Assholes like this always think they have the support of their community. He probably thinks his personal anti-gay crusade is some kind of virtue that outweighs his entirely adulterous intent. There's some really twisted religion out there.

You showed remarkable restraint. I know people who would have led him off the premises by his testosterone jewels and then slammed the door on 'em.

Unless I smack him.

121. Ugh...like 'The Gay' was an illness or something
:eyes:

I guess he thought he was just too irresistable for ANY woman to say 'NO' to him.

Next time make it clear - loud and clear - that even if you were straight he'd still not be your type! :puke:

125. He really was not that all attractive.
He obviously thought he had such a magical dick that it would turn queer women straight. (Oh give me a break! And a relationship is not ALL about sex!)

If I ever see him agian, I'm going to shove his magical dick up his nose. And if that does not draw blood, I'll shove it up his ass.

126. Did you ask if he wanted to be Petticoated?
I mean if he really wanted to be with you (or any other Lesbian) he could at least put in some proper effort!

If I was going to expect you to go out with me I would atleast be willing to have some Bodacious Implants.

132. Petticoating or Pinaforing
From Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petticoating


Petticoating or pinaforing, refers to a type of forced feminization sexual fantasy that revolves around the practice of dressing a boy in girls' clothing for the purpose of humiliating punishment or behavior modification (or to the literature, erotic fiction, or roleplaying of such a fantasy). While this practice is rare in modern society (as the humiliation of children has become socially unacceptable) it has occasionally been observed. However, the terms "petticoating" and "pinaforing" nearly always refer to the sexual fantasy, as opposed to the actual practice.

But that seems more likely in a male gay place.

For me? Nope. And YUK!

136. He becoming a Lesbian as easy as you becoming straight
Edited on Thu Apr-02-09 07:31 PM by One_Life_To_Give
You think it grosses you out. Think about what would go thru these neaderthals at the thought they should become you lesbian partner?

It's just their myopic view of the world that can only conceive of the possibility of you becoming straight and not the other possibilities of him becoming a gay woman or you both becoming agay men. Although I can't imagine why you would both need to change. If he really cared about you he should be willing to sacrifice, right?

137. He was just a straight guy looking for an easy fuck.
The rest of that was just too complicated for me to contemplate.

Gave me a brain freeze, actually.

Yeah, I kinda see your point. But what a lost cause. He's barkin' up the wrong tree.

I can't even believe a respectful straight woman would fall for that shit.

131. Sounds like a creep.
Did he start preaching the gospel to you too? I went to a bar once in a college town and this guy got mad at me because I wouldn't go home with him so he calls me names. Later on he has some blonde sitting on his knee and he stares over at me like I should be jealous. I just blew my cigar smoke his way and ordered another beer. Some guys just can't understand when a gal just isn't interested.

135. LOL! That's a pretty good description. I could not have been less interested.
Good fucking christ, I ignored him in 101 ways.

He just wouldn't leave me alone, or STFU.

Gawd. And yes, he was a creep.

Oh, on a mission to "fix" me? How 'bout you kiss my ass instead.

The bloodying of his nose would have been something I'd pay to see. :rofl:

141. You'd pay to see me bust his chops? Hmmmm.
Well, I seriously hate confrontations. Verbally, and certainly physically. But pay-per-view? Now, I might consider that.

I only go there once or twice a month, so I'd have to have the owner helping. She calls me, and I go there and bust his chops while he is trying to convert gay women. (Asshole!)

No one sees a thing. He must have been drunk and fell on his face, and broke a couple teeth.

I think he's probably a freeper too. So Skittles could kick some ass. Yes, INDEED!

140. *wince*
I can't even fathom that sort of behavior. If someone you're attracted is gay and you didn't know, that's one thing. Apologize and move on. If you've got a friend who's gay and you find yourself attracted to them, write it off as "not ever happening" and stay friends.

But to deliberately try and "convert" someone? :wtf:

A handy hint, on the off chance you run into an asshole like this again: Get a metal cylinder, small enough that you can wrap your fist around it. Works as well as brass knuckles, and it's a lot easier to hide.

143. Yes, really.
Deliberately and knowingly come into a lesbian gay bar looking for women to convert? Now, excuse me, but I think that is plenty rude.

Thanks for the tip about the metal cylinder. I'll pass that along. I really abhor violence of any kind. If necessary with this freeper, I'll just backhand him with my bare knuckles.

I'd dare him to take a swing back at me. He'd be immediately tackled down by about 10-15 lesbians, with the Police on the way. He might get one swing in. I'll take one for the team.

Someday he will get his ass kicked for that shit... and I'd love to watch it when it happens. Good for you, though, on holding your temper.

Getting blood all over yourself is just so messy...

How many times and ways can one say NO! Leave me alone!

Seriously. He wouldn't know which ones were gay or straight.

They'd be swarming about him all night. Let's see how HE'D like that.
