P.S.: Wer sich nicht als "schwul" bezeichnet, ist auch nicht schwul.
Punktum. Oder willst Du das wohl fuer andere entscheiden?

"And this is, in some ways, the very definition of the homosexual ... A
homosexual is one whose definition is to be left to others, one who is
denied the act of self-definition with respect to his or her sexuality..."
(Judith Butler, Excitable Speech, A Politics of the Performative. New York
1997. S. 105)

"Coming out to a gay or lesbian identity is the conscious adoption of a
complex system of codes and customs associated with homosexuality, coupled
with a partial or complete rejection of those values associated with
'straight' society. The notion of coming out as simply telling people that
'I'm gay/ lesbian/ bisexual' and then getting on with life has always been
a falsehood... Likewise, where we live in Britain, our class, our financial
power, our politics, our peer groups, all impact upon any choices we might
be able to take as to which homosexual identity we adopt, if any." (Chris
Woods, State of the Queer Nation, A critique of gay and lesbian politics in
1990s Britain. London/New York 1995. S. 2 f.)
