Ok,for Halloween my friend Lisa suggested I dress up as a French Maid.And I did,I went the whole nine yards shaved legs,high heels,makeup everything.Now all my friends think I'm gay.The worst part of all this is that I really enjoyed being all dressed up.I had a long talk with Lisa about this and she said the reason why she suggested the costume was because she always thought I was a bit girly she said if I wanted to she will help me shop for clothes and stuff.The problem is if I do this everyone will def think I'm gay.I'm so confused I just don't know what to do.Thanks for Listening.

First of all, a Halloween costume is supposed to be fun and outrageous. After all you are hiding from the demons on All Hallows Eve. Hahaha
I commend you for going all the way, shaved legs and all. Who cares what your friends think of you. If they do not like you for who you are, gay or not, they do not deserve to be your friends.
Just because you dressed up like woman does not make you gay. Stop thinking that. To be considered gay you must be physically attracted to the same sex. So what if you are? If you are not attracted to the same sex but enjoy wearing womens clothes, then you are a transvestite, not gay.
Your friend Lisa seems like a good friend who is willing to accept you for who you are. Go shopping with her and have a good time. Stop caring what your other friends think, if they are really your friends then they will accept you no matter what your choice of clothing may be. If they cannot accept you, then you don't need friends like them anyway.

And you shouldn't do things based on others opinions. If you're a female, I find it very, very odd that you're friends said you're gay. That's ridiculous. Hope I helped!! :)

OMGitsRoxy answered Saturday November 5 2005, 8:49 pm: You're so not gay!! They're just jealous you looked hot!! Im thinking you're a girl... right? If not then it would've been weird if you dressed up as a french maid...
Tell em' "at least i looked hot, and that it was only a halloween costume. during halloween your supposed to dress the opposite of you."
sizzlinmandolin answered Saturday November 5 2005, 7:52 pm: Alright...I'm assuming you're a guy...knowing your age would have helped A LOT...next time make sure you specify both because it makes it a whole lot easier for us. So, using my assumptions I need to tell you that having fun in a halloween costume, having a "girly" personality, crossdressing, being a metrosexual being a homosexual, and wanting to be the opposite sex are all completely different things. They are all completely unrelated. You need to decide for yourself which is/are true for you. There are lots of stereotypes floating around and your friend Lisa should not be able to convince you that you're homosexual just because you liked a halloween costume. Listen to her and respect what she says, but you also need to understand that she is using a stereotype to determine your sexuality. You should still talk to her about it because she obviously cares about you a lot as a friend should. Just be careful. She could be right, and she is being a very good friend to you, but this is something that you need to decide for yourself. I hope that you figure everything out soon. Good luck!

SweetStarx89 answered Saturday November 5 2005, 7:08 pm: Hey. Okay well the question is do you think you are gay? Because just because you like getting dressed up doesn't mean you are auto. gay. Plus it was for holloween and a lot people like you would go through the trouble of actually looking nice for an event that only happens once a year. Just let your friends know that you wanted to be spontanious by taking the challenge. If you need anything else let me know. Take care =] x3SweetStar.
