The saying "a gay guy can tell if the other guy is gay or not"
-
my gaydar went online when i was 23. to say the least it was a profound epiphany. it IS true you can see/sense gay men from a mere glance and may be able to confirm after a short conversation. for me its always in the eyes. there is some sort of lively sparkle in their eyes that i see/sense that cant explain and yet i would know. the voice can be concealed and some gay men do have really deep manly voices so that only comes in second. more butch gays cannot be detected by the way they speak. fashion and grooming is dead giveaway most of the time if the guy has an overwhelming attachment to brand, current style, and colors. butch gays however stick to butch clothing which is somehow sneaky. body language and demeanor is a good indicator. most outwardly gay men are obvious at this. as usual butch gays are harder to detect.

the best way to know. you're welcome. ;D -
Yours isn't broken you just haven't had enough experience to understand what it is your looking for.
The signs are not obvious until you know them.
Like a straight guy will openly look at another guy while a gay guy will turn his head so he isn't seen to be staring -
Given enough interaction, you will always be able to tell.
The thing is that there isn't some hard ad fast set of rules. "Gay guy's do this and straight guys do this" will just get you in trouble. Just pay attention and most importantly, trust your instincts! Reading people is a natural human instinct.If you really struggle with this, I would suggest reading a good body language book. Its interesting you will should be better and picking up on subtle cues of attraction and flirtation. If someone is presenting them at guys…
A lot of the stereotypical "camp"/ effeminate characteristics are actually just overt flirtation actions. "open wris movements" etc.

I doubt there's that gaydar thing. You can assume a feminized guy is gay, but there are many guys who are acting completely straight and are gay as an rainbow. (Yes rainbows are gay :rotfl: )

It's hard to know because if a guy is in the closet and rejects you, how would you really know? Your gaydar might be telling you he is gay but if he isn't interested in you and doesn't admit to being gay, there's no way to know. I tend to think sexuality is sort of fluid anyway, so it's kind of pointless to try to figure out someones sexuality. Either they are interested in you or they aren't. Doesn't really matter if they are gay, straight, or bi.

There is definitely such a thing as a gaydar, and some people are better at it than others. Sometimes the clues are very obvious and you can even consciously break them down, other times it's a subtle "poke" you get in your gut that tells you the guy is gay.
