I’ve been called “gay” (mostly by women, by the way!) for these things:
- Knowing how to cook.
- Listening to mostly women artists.
- Being able to decorate credibly.
- Knowing by sight who painted or sculpted art in a museum.
- Liking stage plays.
- Eating salad.
- Eating vegetables in general.
- Knowing the names of movie directors.
- Having women friends.
- Reading books.
- Using a hairbrush.
- Liking tennis.
- Liking women’s tennis specifically.
- Dressing nicely (business goth).
- Having more than two pairs of shoes.
- Having a large vocabulary.
- Knowing the names of more than three colors.
- Preferring cars that aren’t neutral colors.
And many, many others I am forgetting. Those are just the ones I can recall in a few seconds.
