CiNdYLoUwHoO answered Saturday June 3 2006, 12:58 pm: Gossip is definately a bitch, but don't worry, the rumors will die down. In the meantime, if people come up and ask you if your bi, correct the rumors. Also tell your friends that if they hear anything, to stop the rumors as well. That way, people will be so confused they will stop.
Hope this helps.

Elcee answered Friday June 2 2006, 6:15 am: Ignore the gossipmongers and get on with your life. Todays gossip is yesterdays old news and it will all go away. If someone actually mentions it to you just tell them that you don't listen to gossip and have no reason to believe what is being said. We have all been subjected to gossip in one form or another and as you get older you realise it can't actually hurt you unless you let it. Don't worry about what is being said and trying to defend yourself will just carry it on. Tell them to get a life. I wish you all the best. [ Elcee's advice column | Ask Elcee A Question ]
Sedona answered Friday June 2 2006, 1:25 am: Well unfortunately with rumors you don't have much control of them...but the good thing is they usually fizzle out with some time...unless you happen to keep validating the rumors. I suggest you be a bit more mindful of how you might be portraying yourself. What might seem like a joke to you, can be perceived differently to others. Sexuality is controversial in itself in most areas. It is possible that with your joking, it might have made someone else feel uncomfortable and thus is how the rumor began. I am not saying in any way that they are right in doing what they do...but those are the rules of social interaction. Sometimes we have to adjust our behavior...luckily with rumors...there is always a learning curve. [ Sedona's advice column | Ask Sedona A Question ]
Eustachius answered Friday June 2 2006, 1:23 am: Rumors are nasty, and they're most often used for revenge. Many people who hear the rumor will spread it around and not even believe it. If you don't let it phase you, then it will probably go away quickly because it's intended to bother you. If it doesn't bother you, there's no point to spread rumors anymore. Besides, the person who started the rumor is probably a f***ing homophobe with nothing better to do.
I've joked around with my friends just for the sake of grossing out a guy that was homophobic, and it can be damn fun! =P
