Nothing wrong with that

Okay, not so much a personality trait, but another thing I would like to change.
I’d like to not act so gay.
I’m not gay, not that there’s anything wrong with that. But in the past I’ve had people who were surprised when I was attracted to women. “I thought you were gay.” Even a woman that I was nominally friends with for over a year.
My mother even asked.
And now a friend wants me to volunteer to be in the local gay pride parade.
I wish I could remember who said this, but I recall a good analogy. You can march in support of equal rights for blacks without people thinking you are black.
