Unless you’re gay

I’m waiting in a common area for a class to begin and watching my fellow students. One guy in my section just showed up wearing the most old-Jewish-lady-looking-huge-white-framed sunglasses. Only a gay man with a certain flamboyant flair could even think of pulling those off. I’m pretty sure this guy is straight. Ew.

Then again, I recently read a review of the nightlife in San Diego where a reader commented “Why is it that only in San Diego do the straight guys dress like gay men.” At least that would help to explain why my gaydar has been so seriously off here. Almost all the guys I meet register as “gay.” I think it’s a SoCal thing.
