[QUOTE="Set, post: 4547629, member: 41584"] Remember children, you should hide your true identity and feelings from other people, if you don't want to be ostracized and rejected. Burrow deeply into that closet and only talk to people about what they seem interested in. If you happen to like something that they aren't talking about, it's because you're a dirty deviant who should feel shame, SHAME, for being different. Ignore the frat-boys with their leering, catcalls and ***-grabbing. You aren't part of the popular crew, so if you take notice of a member of the opposite sex, it's because you are a creepy un-socialized stalker who probably has never seen a girl before because you live in your parent's basement. Ignore the jocks with their homoerotic 'wrasslin' and ***-slapping of each other. You aren't one of them, so if you make any comment about another man's body, or look for more than the approved three seconds at another man, you will be labeled as gay, shunned and possibly beaten. It's probably safer to just keep your eyes down, your arms at your sides (don't wave them around enthusiastically when you talk about something that interests you, like those popular kids do, because that's only for them to do, and if you do it, you will be labeled as overly emotional or possibly even crazed) and walk quickly and quietly to your destination, as other people will never accept you for who you are, and if you aren't good at lying and pretending to like exactly what everyone else likes, you'll never fit in. Also, try not to eat anyone. Some people have funny beliefs about that sort of thing. Ignore these warnings at your peril. If you are unable to run with the herd, you will be eaten by lions. [/QUOTE]
