A Fabulous Analysis of the Flamboyantly Gay Reaching the Breaking Point

Have you ever heard a heterosexual talking about a homosexual, saying things like "Jake would be a cool guy if he wasn't such a flamer" or "I don't have a problem with gays, but I just want to know why he has to act so gay"? Perhaps you have even said something similar yourself. Unfortunately the catalyst of today's gay and lesbian "culture" cannot be easily pinpointed amongst the haystack of parades, festivals, activists, and clubs available. However, this essay provides an informed and hopefully thought-provoking justification of the flamboyantly gay. In this essay I will NOT be commenting on the origins of homosexuality (biological or otherwise) but will instead focus on this different, equally important aspect which many homosexuals find immensely helpful for their psychological well-being, whether they know it or not. In order to appreciate the theory I will soon explain one must first recognize a simple concept regarding the human mind. As most will agree, bottled emotions do more harm than good. The act of keeping feelings inside tends to create a "pressurized" effect on the brain, overloading the psyche with pent-up "garbage". As is the case in any good romance movie, the onlooker with bottled emotions waits until the end to release everything, dramatically and emotionally releasing all her pressurized tensions. Sure, Hollywood is not the best place to get your life morals, but a lesson really can be learned here, and the same lesson can be applied to the big question at hand.

"Why does he act so gay?" By now you may be realizing where I am going with this. If you can put two and two together to make four, you can put the above concept together with the question to get the answer. With the wavering inconsistencies of genetics comes different breaking points, which is a fairly unanimously accepted concept (it would be hard to argue that everyone in the world has the same emotional stability) and therefore some gays come out earlier than others. The period elapsed before this "breaking point" can be said to be the "pressurizing" phase. During this phase the adolescent/teenager is faced with such bottled emotions as seeing suggestive images on the media in front of peers without becoming visually excited, never enjoying a sexual relationship with another person, seeing others around him or her in healthy, happy relationships, having that secret crush and knowing revelation is unfeasible, and having to comprehensively and immaculately clean his or her computer of any gay-related pornography, among countless other issues. After a homosexual has realized he or she cannot take the pressure any longer, he or she "comes out" and usually feels more free, ridding the mind of all those (and other) emotional weights.

This "freedom phase" contributes directly to the mannerisms and actions held exclusively to gays. Over-expression of one's sexuality results in no more hiding, no more questioning, and most importantly, no more pressure. It feels much better to "show off" being gay than it does to remain in question. Now that the big question has been identified and retorted, perhaps you are wondering why the title of this essay is "A Fabulous Analysis of the Flamboyantly Gay". Well not only am I a M.D. with a Ph. D in psychology, alumni of one of the most recognized psychology schools in the nation, University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, and a loving father of 2, but I am a football-savvy, t-shirt and jeans kind of guy who can really handle pressure and still, as of today, hasn't reached his breaking point.

That makes some amount of sense I guess.
I'm a born-again agnostic. When I initially shook off the last remaining shackles of Christianity, I felt so free that I went through aphrase of blaspheming for the hell of it.
Now I only do it when it's funny or relevant.
