Confused at work...

[clrinsight]

I work in a factory on an 'off' shift, 3 days on the weekend and I'm openly bi to only 2 of my coworkers, one whom I played around with a couple of years ago. Now all the rest of the "guys" are typical middle class heterosexual white conservative types, and I tend to stand out as the only free thinking liberal. What baffles me is that all weekend long there is nothing but gay jokes, gay talk and gay play acting, not instigated by me! These so-called rednecks seem to have a one track mind, yet at the same time will tell you how much they hate gay people and how sick it is. I am happily married and my wife is bisexual, and although we are monogamous we are very open. She says they are hurting to explore their other side. Has anyone else experienced this in the workplace? Is this what happens when you stick a bunch of guys together for 12 hours a day?

You know how teenage boys are always making gay jokes & doing the role playing? My theory is that most rednecks have emotionally gotten stuck at that stage. I've known a lot of redneck conservatives in my time & pretty much all of them were emotionally stunted.

"Is this what happens when you stick a bunch of guys together for 12 hours a day?"

Well being British I know nothing about rednecks (only that they are in south USA. all i kno)
I'm a bi female and I go to an English private skool which used to be all boys and a few yrs ago they let grls in. I am the only grl in my yr but nxt yr many will join. All the other yrs have many grls, mine is the last one sex one. I like being the only grl. I prefer male friends and even tho I like women in a sexual sense I dnt want them in my skool so me=sad.
I gotta say I am one of the very few liberal minded people in my yr in the skool in fact. I'm v liberal and my m8ts are v conservative. It shocks me.
Butthere is a lot of 'secret' homo action in that skool. or atleast there was till grls joined. We of course have a class gay. I was in an all grls skool b4 and there were quite a few lesbians/bis and in my oresent skool still a few gays+bis. I think I am the only bi female in the skool. No lesbians at all I recon. Now that I left old skool all r st8t. I made lesbians in my old skool (god i must be hot to turn peeps). Every where I go I feel like the only one and I'm afraid but yeah when u stick a bunch of guys together even the st8ts go a bit bi cas of sex lust.
