Its something my friends and I have talked about quite extensively. I live here in San Francisco and there is certainly a certain affectation in the speech patterns of gay males. Its not a lisp though, its more a feminized softening of the tone of voice, and a slight passivity. Hard to describe. i just call it the Gay Accent. If there is anyone here who can explain it beyond what I say above I'd be interested to hear your explanation. [/quote] What the hell are YOU doing on GLP?

Original Message
I was at a party the other day with my brother (who is gay) and he had a bunch of his gay friends over. There were maybe 12 gay guys there and only a couple of them didn't have the funny lisp.
Why do they talk like that? What does that have to do with them being attracted to other men? I think it's pretty obnoxious actually.
