The gossips say that a woman’s boyiend is gay. Should her sister pass on those tal? * my sisters boyfriend is gay *
And I am happy for them, except for one thg: I am about 99 percent sure he is gay. Now, I have no problem wh homosexualy, but you n unrstand my ncern.
Before you say anythg hurtful to your sister, let’s take a peek at some of the (homophobic-adjacent) assumptns that you’ve ma on your (probably well-tentned) road to judgment. (Spare me your gaydar.

We’ve never really discsed sexualy wh him, but he’s mentned beg a fan of stutns that hold anti-gay posns (and remend that young men wh “gay temptatns” get married and have children immediately, which is worryg). I’ve tried not to make assumptns jt bee he remds me of other gay men, but a few weeks ago my hband’s brother also said he thought he might be closeted. He and I have both tried to talk to her over the years about some of her beliefs, but she don’t seem to thk ’s possible for a closeted person to date someone of the oppose sex—basilly that if you n “succsfully” get a girliend, you mt not be gay after all.

That’s where the real opportuny to do good li, not tryg to nvce your sister--law that her boyiend might be gay. If you jt have a feelg that your brother is gay, that's okay. If you thk your brother is gay bee he watch a "girly" TV show or his voice sounds a certa way, that's relyg on stereotyp.
