THE PREVALENCE OF LISPG GAY MEN

The prent study examed the popular stereotype that gay men lisp by evaluatg to what extent listeners associated ntal or ontal articulatn/lispg wh gayns.

GAY LISP

What the gay man was alludg to was the lisp he had and the expectatn that expected the guy who asked him to classify anyone wh as clearly gay. Personally, I don't thk 's found a higher proportn gay men over any other group jt like pretty much any other characteristic but I ma the thread to fd out what the rt of you thk. So my qutn to you GAF is: Is the gay lisp real or is jt a forced thg that some gay men put on to somehow signify that they're gay?

Ed: I put gay quotatn marks as I don't thk should necsarily be associated solely wh gay men. I don't thk is, appearg/soundg "straight actg" is the most sirable thg you n be the gay muny. I'd say 's an affectatn that's been so standard for so long that there are probably a lot of gays who don't even realize they're dog .

WHY IS ANY GUY WH A LISP ASSUMED TO BE GAY?

I'm gonna go wh forced, only bee I n do a pch perfect one and I am not gay.

Every time I hear a person talkg wh the lisp, I assume they are gay. don't thk 's found a higher proportn gay men over any other group jt like pretty much any other characteristic but I ma the thread to fd out what the rt of you thk. You may be nfg wh over-enunciatg certa words and the nce which some gay men speak when they're foolg around, but general most people I know speak like a regular human beg.

Of urse we're generalizg or stereotypg but there is no nyg that 's really mon among gay men. Only one of my gay iends universy had that lisp, and he had basilly e over om Lebanon havg watched a ton of Will & Grace and thkg that's how gay people are supposed to act.

WHAT MEANS TO ‘SOUND GAY’

I had two iends high school that had that lisp but tried to tell me they weren't gay even though I pretty much assumed they were. But there's nothg geic that gay people to have a lisp, 's somethg that n be ed by a host of oral/nasal issu. My brother is gay and went om havg no lisp to a very proment one after semi g out the closet.

I've only known one gay uple, but one of them had the lisp and the other didn't. I know a number of gay people who, if they don't have the lisp, they at least have some "tradnal" gay stereotype behavrs. This clus two who acted like that graschool before any of knew what "gay" was.

Ed: Actually, e to thk of , out of all the other gay guys I know, I don't thk any of them have this lisp. Maybe a few people naturally have , and I feel AWFUL for them, but 99% of s age is by the kd of gays who look for attentn anywhere they n get , and attract overweight femal wh guy issu like goddamn tubs of Ben & Jerry's.
