Flying Under the Gaydar: Difference between revisions

* In ''[[Glee]]'', Kurt gets caught by his dad dancing in a unitard with two girls to Beyonce's "Single Ladies" video. He claims he is [[Blatant Lies|practicing for his new position on the football team, which he had totally just joined and not made up on the spot.]] Later, when he ''does'' join the football team, he helps the team perfect their coordination and timing (and some psychological warfare on the other team) through learning the dance. In a later episode, when he feels that quarterback Finn is "stealing" his dad away from, Kurt begins dressing in flannel clothing and dating a woman in order to appear more manly and win back his father's affection.

* Bisexual [[Cross Dresser]] Kris from British Soap Opera [[Holly Oaks]] did this at one point, stopping wearing make-up, skirts and hiding his bisexuality because his brother was visiting.

* Max from ''[[Happy Endings]]'' subverts this: while he is definately not [[Camp Gay]] at all, his friends point out that he can't really act straight either. Especially in front of his parents.

* In an inversion similar to the ''[[Ugly Betty]]'' example above, Bill Dauterive of ''[[King of the Hill]]'' pretends to be [[Camp Gay]] in order to keep his employment at a trendy hair salon that only hires women and gay men because they do not believe straight men can properly cut/style hair.
