Men with gay face

Prettiness

It can also be called "Lady Face" and it's all over the map. Sometimes the round cheeks but sometimes a slim face with high cheekbones. Guys who pluck their eyebrows aren't doing themselves any favors in this regard. And sometimes it's not so much a genetic feature but the attitude. Resting bitch face can look gay...but resting priss face really pings.

Cocksucking lips

Gay faces are more expressive

Uh no, gay face is a disproportionately sized chin and mouth. It's very obvious

The other people saying gayface don't know what it actually is

Overly sculpted eyebrows always catch my gay face detector.

Big mouth area + dramatically arching eyebrows. For me the eyebrows always ping, and it's not grooming but the underlying structure.

Whatever Ted Haggard has, that's it for me. It's a mildy retarded look as well.

"Overly sculpted eyebrows always catch my gay face detector."

Straight guidos tend to shape their eyebrows, also

Yes. Bushy but naturally fine eyebrows are a BIG sign. Forgot that. The more triangular the better.

Yeah there's a difference between gayface and chola sculpted eyebrows

You're all wrong. It's the mouth and chin.

I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of gayface I understand to be embraced within that shorthand description, and perhaps I could never succeed in intelligibly doing so. But I know it when I see it.

No, you're wrong r12, if you're also r5.

Men look more gay when they have feminine features. A big chin is not a feminine feature, on the contrary it's rather masculine, unless you mean this, of course.

An effortless and winsome smile!

R14 Miss Fontana pings to everyone except his wife, poor dear.

R15 feminine features are NOT "gayface". Stop redefining words, cis scum!

Yes Ronan Farrow has acute Lady Face/Gay Face. If a leopard slink dress and a big floppy hat replaced his clothing his face would fit right in and you'd never suspect it was a man.

Stretch marks around the top lip offer a slight clue.

Ronan Farrow does no have gayface, a feminine/delicate or in his case *feminized* face is not gayface.

It’s actually the eyes. Small and squinty

Not so much feminine as elfin, perky, bubbly, overly enthusiastic.

I think Daniel Tosh has a case of the gayface.

Don't tell me this is not a gay face

Exhibit A

I agree with r21

Daniel Tosh basically looks like a young Ted Haggard.

Hard to define, as there are different features are more accentuated and apparent, but you can just tell. Definitely more evident with the over-smiling .

Smiling with teeth is a big sign. I've done it forever and was told off for it from a young age. My father even told me off for it last week and I'm 38 years old.

Gay Face:

"Yes Ronan Farrow has acute Lady Face/Gay Face. If a leopard slink dress and a big floppy hat replaced his clothing his face would fit right in and you'd never suspect it was a man."

Really? I don't think he looks feminine at all. His jaw is too wide to pass for a woman

I don't think Ronan Farrow has gayface at all. He just has Sinatraface.

narrow jaw that's why Hollywood actors get jaw implant

Love when we say it’s the “I smell cookies” face ! It’s so true .

R34 explain Brian sims then.... Also is it gay face or same sex attraction face as I see many bi guys with gay face galore. Very funny especially when they date women

Crinkly-eyed smiles

To me, gayface isn't about "ladylike" features, it's about exaggerated features, whether they be excessively roundish like Andrew Rannells above, or excessively pointed like Louis Virtel here:

R37!yes that’s it!!

Cheeks like bellows.

You all are all over the map about describing "gay face."

But you have one thing in common: It's a negative thing to have.

Self-loathing bitches.

Lady face

the plastic surgery also like nose job, botox, filler and face lift

Sparkly eyes.

Ultimate lady face:

Glamor puss:

R46 Old Lady Face.

From left: composite heterosexual faces, composite homosexual faces and "average facial landmarks"

AI that 'identifies gay faces'

Fierce gay face:

R49 no need to wonder if that guy you're crushing on is gay or not anymore. Just hold a printout of that next to his face, discreetly of course.

Interesting. The composite of the homosexual face in r49's post looks awfully similar to the features of someone with FASD.

That AI nonsense looks like it's majorly effected by "oversmiling". None of these fake programs that take samples from the internet are "science". You would have to have everyone doing the exact same expression, with no grooming or plastic surgery enhancement allowed as a factor.

Adam Lambert, I mean. Eye brows, squinty look, smirk, makeup. Maybe thats too easy an example but yeah

r51 that is not gayface either. Take away the makeup and you just have another pretty Arab man.

“Gay face” has nothing to do with physical features. It’s the overemphatic expressiveness—the grimacing smile is the classic tell. It’s trying too hard to be liked.

Good point r 57.

Damn, Barry Manilow looks awful! His voice is also shot to hell.

Science

r60 that's not science either, they're taking samples from gay dating sites. They're probably all doing the "gay grimace" or similar, with their plucked eyebrows on point as well.

It's not the whole face. The lips and the eyes. The gay stare, deer caught in the headlights , pupils dilated-some gay men have any of these looks in their eyes. The lips-VERY FEMININE lips. Ryan Reynolds has the intense gay stare in the eyes and the gay lips going on as does Matt Bomer. Matt Bomer has VERY STAREY EYES AND MAJOR GAY LIPS.

Shawn Mendes has major gayface.

Gay face, also known as a term you put on MEN YOU WISH YOU WEREN'T ATTRACTED TO.

Or when they come to you with the "HEEYYYYY" face and fake smile. I don't have a problem with that but know guys who do that, its just another indicator of a gay face coming to you lol.

Beat this:

Can we get back on topic please?

GayFace is made up of feminine qualities. Like long eyelashes, a large toothy smile, a dimple or two.

Oh god, that man. wonder if he even had it before the alterations to his face?^

I've noticed a lot of gay men have pretty eyes with long eyelashes (even ones who are otherwise plain)

The more I read the more I’m convinced the trans movement is a good idea. So many people hate gay men but mostly for their femininity. Just turn them into women for crying out loud. I may start voting for all these pro-trans candidates. I think it’s a good idea to be honest. There’s more homophobia then there is transphobia, so just be done with gay men. Outlaw homosexuality—make it mandatory to transition into women. That’s the answer to homophobia. Problem solved.

Take a Midol r71

R71 worst trolling I’ve seen on DL in a while. Congrats.

Nah—it’s the answer. Who are these people talking about “gay erasure”? Unless this thread is filled with pro-trans or pro-Islam people? That’s very plausible.

Thread closed.

Thread blocked.

HA! that also comes with the gay voice.

r76 = Ross Mathews

Hey, gurl, heeeeeeeey!!!!

Some gay men do look like their faces are made of plastic. It's very strange. At least they could always get a job as a store mannequin. Or a sex doll.

Needs a flowerpot hat:

I've always thought it has more to do with grooming and expressions more than actual features idk.

It's my dewy complexion that our most athletic African American men seem to notice

[quote]Big mouth area + dramatically arching eyebrows. For me the eyebrows always ping, and it's not grooming but the underlying structure.

Like Will Poulter?

If men are going to pluck their eyebrows, they need to immediately proceed to reassignment surgery.

The most masculine man on the planet becomes a woman with tweezed brows. Seriously.

i just realized that ronan farrow looks like elisabeth moss.

Computer composites of boys faces, ranging from low prenatal testosterone exposure on the far left panel to high prenatal testosterone exposure on the far right.

Which one did you most resemble?

R55 It's just the makeup and the way he styles himself

Tab. Low key gay face.

some gay men become lesbian with aging

The wonderful Glenn Shadix.

Another one who looks like someone's grandma

Leotards are pretty gay.

DiCaprio looks like Reese Witherspoon.

R95 lol penn looks like those methhead whitetrash twinks that do brokestraight boys or frat house porn.

I think we're getting a few false positives here...

Sean Penn has always looked like a very ugly lesbian to me.

Wow cumberbatch has the gay eyes and smile

R101 It was rumored that his wife is an ex-escort it makes sense if he's gay and she's a beard.

Younger

It’s strange you definitely know it when you see it. It exists. Looks different on everyone. Gay voice exists too. I guess it’s just nature saying something. I think bisexual face exits too. In men it’s like super masculine features like jaw and brow mixed with pretty features like Cupid’s bow lips and long eyelashes. Your face says a lot!

R103 cumberbatch looking like a twink and Eddie looking the same

R104 lol, no most bi guys don’t look masculine at all. Most fem and a lot are into cross dressing etc

I’m telling you. Bi/dL liking guys exist. I have a lot of trans friends. This is the kind of guys trans like. Trans girls I know hate gay face! I’m telling you bi and downlow face exists! I’ve seen this social experiment in person

[quote]Trans girls I know hate gay face!

Of course they do. I bet they were femmy gay boys before 'turning trans'.

Gay Face?

Gay face royalty

The late Vincent Price had gay face. My mother's euphemism for it was "cultured."

R111 looks trans

Jonathan Rhys Meyers-EXTREMELY GAY LIPS and EXTREMELY GAY STARE.

Charlie Ruggles and Charles Laughton

Ruggles is fucking hilarious though, do rec any film w him

Now I'm in a Charlie Ruggles rabbithole

lmfao gayface is ALL he served

Basically:

Ugly = gay

Good looking = straight

Thomas Rhett has “married to a woman” gay face....If you’ve ever heard him interviewed—-you know his deal....

David Archuleta

Seacrest.

Even teen boys have gay face

Every guy who ever appeared on Teen Wolf.......No Joke—-they must have held castings at Pride Parades Not a straight one in the bunch.

Jussie

Fleshy face, weak jaw, thick lips, prominent cheekbones and sometimes funny looking eyes

Bisexual face:

Pretty eyes, thinner lips, stronger jawline, less prominent cheekbones and more refined features like a smaller nose

Has that finger ratio thing ever been proven/disproven?

This has become the funniest thread in a long time!

Oh, how I love the way you all think! DL never disappoints.

I think it's mostly evident by the smile.

R131 so bisexual face = ugly rat? And lol at ‘pretty eyes’. Those lopsided bug eyes give me the heebejeebies!

To me, it's a look of nearly hidden, but fairly constant disappointment. I know it when I see it, and it has nothing to do with cookies. It's more like the look I get when I see someone has bought a supermarket grease cake for a birthday party.

Yeah I see . Jared Leto bi face . Matt Bomer gay face . Chris Hemsworth straight face . The thing is I know a lot of guys who break these stereotypes . Like masculine jocks with strong jaws and hooded lids who are gay . The formula doesn’t always fly. This thread is great though. Needed some laughs .

President James Buchanan had gay face for days.

I think R126 is the closest to nailing it down concisely.

R112 Vincent Price has a strong resemblance to DL fave Jake Orion. I doubt that Vincent Price was infected with venereal warts though.

"Fleshy face, weak jaw, thick lips, prominent cheekbones and sometimes funny looking eyes"

Weird that you linked to a pic of Richard Chamberlain, since he has a strong jaw

R138 Richard Chamberlain has a strong chin but not a particularly strong jaw. When I think of a man with a strong jaw, I think of Henry Cavill and Christopher Reeve.

R79 looks like a younger version of R46

Effeminate gay men utilize similar facial expressions as women, they develop female aging and muscle contraction patterns in their face. For example, gay face includes tightness around the mouth from pursing the lips, a facial expression common to gay men.

"Richard Chamberlain has a strong chin but not a particularly strong jaw."

He has a strong chin and a strong jaw. Bad example.

R142 Correction:

R126 Fleshy face, thick lips, prominent cheekbones and sometimes weak jaw and funny looking eyes

Only in dataloungeland would this qualify as a guy with a weak jaw and a fleshy face

Faul McFartney

Kevin Spacey

Lady Spacey has the creepy, lascivious, predator gay face.

Has Bill Taylor chimed in?

I've got a fix for that!

Bi face: Jason Mraz

I believe in gay face and also faggot eyes. I think faggot eyes would be a great name for a punk band

jeff has it

Certain clothes don’t help —

As my husband sez “Guilty Eyes”

Over-tweezed or even tweezed brows are the number one giveaway.

Take your pick!

Maybe gays start earlier with skin care..historically (nowadays its harder to tell as str8 guys have copped on)..so maybe a smooth complexion and grooming is Gayface? And to counteract a fee posters above..i believe str8 people assume all gays are the handsome ones, Not the ugly ones. And on a side note, gays don't necessarily agree with str8 peoples idea of beauty. Im constantly having girls say WOW when they see me. Str8 men have often commented "well ur a handsome man..or ur a fine looking man...and i model".. but yet i was in 2 saunas on holiday and was pished away by guys who really wouldn't turn heads in their clothes..not tall or 'handsome'..yet my stereotypocal handsomeness doesnt go down as well with gay guys... And no im not effeminate. And ive a beard.

The Pence nephew is ultimate gayface, as others have said.

Cumberbatch

tweezed brows

botox

nose job

Asymmetrical face. In women and men especially around chin and jaw area.

Weak jaw and chin

R159 If that women in photo is his wife/gf then yes he's gay. You can tell by looking at her face that she's gay.

Why do so many gay men get nose jobs. I use to date a Latin guy that looked like Mario Lopez and he always talked about getting a nose job. He thought it was to flat and wide. He looked fine. He was a playgirl centerfold. After we broke up he got it. He didn’t look that different. He prop had more of a gay face and he was older and wore make up

*too flat

The ostensibly straight Cody Christian.

The "frisson of barely controlled hysteria."

I couldn't resist.

Buttigieg’s hubs

To (r158) women prefer gay face more than gay men

Zac Efron

Natalie Portman's gay ballet dancer hubby has gay face.

Andrew Rannells from GIRLS

T(w)een girls tend to like boys with feminine features. Look at their heartthrobs through the years (e.g., David Cassidy, Leif Garrett, Leonardo DiCaprio, Hanson, Justin Bieber). Everyone one of them was mistaken for a girl by someone who was not a fan.

Bryon Hefner

Ryan Phillippe

Alain Delon

Most gay men no matter how much muscle they build have gay face. They just do.

Brad Pitt, DiCaprio, Beckham, Tom Brady

R30 What kind of fucked up homophobic family are you in? Showing teeth while smiling is pretty universal, so unless practically everyman, who has ever smiled in photos is gay that is asinine. I've been told off for NOT showing teeth when smiling, but never for showing teeth.

R87, interesting

R108, no

In my opinion, it appears to me that Sam Smith, Alan Cumming and Boy George without makeup all have the same gay face. Maybe it's the plucked eyebrows or the sharp nose.

When Sam Smith lets his face stubble grow in, to me he has the same gay face as George Michael.

I also think that the lead singer from the B-52 Fred and the host of CHOPPED Ted Allen have the same gay face.

R46 that’s not a lady face, that’s a clown face

I love gay face, I find guys with gay face really attractive, sexiest thing ever

Gay face or Joker face?
