All my stright friends treat me the same as their stright friends with the exception of when we are all joking around where they put on the gay act and hit on one-another. With my group of friends... its quite hilarious to watch. One of them who I am the closest with will always ask me questions about being gay and what not. It can be quite comforting.
I think that's the best approach, to talk about it, if people talked about what being gay means and how that affects us, not in a bad way, just that it makes us slightly different, like my hair is dark brown, yours might be blonde, our lives are slightly different because of that. I like cock, someone else might like pussies, that's cool.
It strengths relationships, I'm in the closet, but I love to talk about gay people, just because I'm not out (I have my reasons) it doesn't mean I can't help spread the word, gay is good :tongue:
