People are Finding Out

... taking those risks by going to such events.

your gay so you want to be in an affirming crowd, even just for a few hours to just be your self.

I've been to a few different gay pride festivals and luckily never seen anyone I know at them ... went to watch a much smaller gay-related event ... luckily didn't see anyone I know If any of that info ever got out it'd be a very bad thing, I honestly don't know what I'd do if it did happen ... shouldn't even be taking those risks by going to such events...

-i temper this by saying i dont know who you think you are but most or all of us here are part of the 47% that no cares about. That may be the only thing saving us. This is an age where anyone can take a pic or video. Your tagged buying gas, get groceries, walk the dog. You go to a website nytimes.com and only a small % of the content comes from the Times news paper. The reset of the stuff is un controlled. Americans think the free stuff is really for free, NOT.
-it takes a huge amount of personal bandwidth to appear straight. Your missing that space and it may make you short tempered, what ever odd behavior.
-You might let your guard down just for a short time just a few times a week and look at a guy's ass. People notice.
-people that are near you notice and suspect the single man.

I am not saying it is necessary to be out and I know your aware either way the swirl of stuff around you.
