I’m openly gay and people I’ve never met before instantly ask if I’m gay, this happens all the time especially with women in pubs. I get on with straight women really well and they get on with me, I go abroad with a straight women quite often and I think she feels comfortable with me because she has said she’ll share a twin room with me. I’ve been told by my straight male friends I’m obviously gay. I do hate it sometimes as this means I can be a target by homophobes which has happened before. How to hide a camp/gay lisp when I’m unaware of sounding gay. I mean I am who I am and I’m not ashamed with who I am.

No need to hide it. Just let people be weird about it because people are weird. When I was presenting male I got told all the time it was obvious I was gay, but I’m bi lol, and now feel comfortable presenting female again, my voice forever sounds like an otter I guess.

It almost sounds homophopic to say that sometimes you can just tell. But its the truth. SOmetimes you can. Ive been wrong before, though.
Im not sure its a good idea to go from a somewhat open situation to trying to mask yourself.
But what do I know? I’m not in your situation. I guess, you do you.

I’ve been asked if I was gay more than once, especially when younger up until 2019 I think.
I’m not gay and I can’t put my finger on what prompted those people to think otherwise.

I don’t know what you mean by GAY lisp. People tried to make me have a lisp before, by something they were doing, to make me sound dumb. When I got away from them, it went away.

I had speech therapy as a child and always had a lisp. I think this intensifies my campness.

I’m experiencing the same thing. It seems like the more I accept my sexuality the more people can tell. It’s pretty unlikely that some one will attack you because of it but it depends on where you live. My recommendation would be to learn how to defend yourself. Either learn how to fight or get a taser or something.
