Gay boys

I was thinking of the earl of scooby the other day. Omnisexual gayboy sex offender. His myspace page is gone, but before they took it down I surfed around his friends. I read the profiles of out 16 year old gay boy drag queens and underage queers and out-and-proud junior high kids.

Last night I was on manhunt and got to talking to this eighteen year old kid. He thought I looked 'so fricken' cute' and he wanted to talk on the phone so I thought what the hell.

He is a senior in highschool and bubbled on and on about working at abercrombie and fitch, about this guy who he was seeing who ended up cutting his wrists, about doing his hair and shopping and how he loves his hair, he was bubbly and gay.

I said, listen, can I tell you something? I said, I've been thinking about this the past couple days. I graduated from highschool not so long ago and it strikes me that so much has changed in the past few years. Across suburbia its okay to be young and gay and out in highschool.

He said yeah, that was kind of the case. Not at all highschools, of course.

Of course.

My highschool was a redneck hellhole.

Weekends were spent drinking in pick-up trucks, having keggers at gravel pits, fuckin' gettin' herpes and shit.

A small city nearby was our only metropolis.

Of course I wasn't out--barely out to myself--and tried to hide, small as possible, corner of the lunchroom, dick shrunk up into my gym clothes, showering after everyone else, surrounding myself with sympathetic teachers.

I was sucking lots of cock though and gettin' ass and had a boyfriend in another town when I was a senior.

But two instances of unrequited lust stand out in my mind that I would like to share.
