Here’s the deal: I work with a bunch of really, really gay men. Some of them are quite hilarious, and some are assholes. Generally, they are like any other group of people and I don’t have a problem with them as I am 1) neither good looking enough or in good enough shape for them to even jokingly hit on me and 2) am so completely self-absorbed that I really don’t have the mental energy to waste on caring about gays and lesbians…unless of course, we are talking about hot lesbians who appreciate the art of waxing. Now, a kid I work with (with whom I share an office) is probably deep in the closet; he’s a good kid and despite an obvious flamboyance and predilection for all things seemingly light-in-the-loafers, no one really knows for sure. It’s no one’s business and he shouldn’t have to explicitly tell everyone what or whom he does on his own time.
There is also a person in my office who will come to me first thing in the morning and our interaction will be something like the following: I’ll say “Good Morning Steve,” [pseudonym] and Steve will quickly retort “Yeah, it was a good morning, especially because I got fucked in the ass last night.”
“Wow Steve, there’s really no need to tell me that ever, in fact never say anything like that again, but I am happy that you are happy.” Of course “Steve” will say something like this to me every day and to the rest of the staff as well. “Steve” is also the person who introduced me to 2girls1cup.com and in general is just a nasty person. He is the gay equivalent of a really dirty frat boy and when it comes to talking about sex; despite his love of cock, he is still a man and has the same mentality as most guys I know. So Steve proceeds to tell people in our office that he had a tryst with my young closeted colleague. Emails from the ladder’s blackberry confirm that he “wanted to suck [his] cock after work.” That’s bad. What’s worse is that “Steve” went on to say that Youngn’Closeted did a terrible job blowing him and that eventually, “Steve” had to start skull-fucking this kid. Now would be a propitous time to mention that “Steve” is no more that 5’5″ and could not possibly weigh more than 110 pounds.
The worst part is, my whole office now knows this poor kid has sucked the cock of a disgusting individual AND that he did a terrible job and ended up getting skull-fucked. He doesn’t know that everyone knows this, but it’s out there, in the ether and his days of playing it close to the vest are over. Now, I am of the opinion that this is bad news for the kid, but there is no need to inform him that I know about his maladroitness for sucking cock. Another colleague of mine almost feels maternall when it comes to Youngn’Closeted. He is a young kid entering a vicious business, and because he is a nice person and always has a smile on his face; his infectious enthusiasm helps my colleague feel human after a 13 hour-day working for Hollywood scum. She desperately wants to alert Yn’C but doesn’t know how to do it, meanwhile I have to sit here and think about how this kid sucks the cock of a person I really don’t like…and manages to do a bad job.
It’s not that I am angry with his decision to be a “giver,” it’s really more about who’s pitching and in this case, it’s “Steve,” who, for a gay man, is very unimpressive to look at. The question is what do I do? DO I STOP MY OTHER COLLEAGUE FROM INFORMING Yn’C THAT EVERYONE KNOWS HE SUCKS “STEVE’S” SCHWANZ? OR, DO I DO NOTHING AND PASSIVELY LET HER INFORM Yn’C THAT EVERYONE KNOWS AND RUIN THIS KID’S EMOTIONAL STABILITY?
Is ignorance bliss? We’ll soon find out.
Until next time…
