      I am this week having to write something in Java for the first time, having been on a course in July. I have yet to notice it making me particularly carefree and happy, nor have I begun to fancy any men.

          Are you sure? Maybe it's long period transition?

              Why would it be? I've always found Java to be for the slightly nerdier pattern obsessed types, but I've never doubted that they are any less hetero than other devs.

                Has your dress sense become more fashion conscious?

                Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

                  Well today I am wearing the least creased shirt I own that fits me. I will become more crumpled over the remainder of the week. Next week unless there is a sharp turnaround in the ironing situation I will be dressed in either slightly crumpled and ill fitting clothes or very crumpled ones.

                    Because it's translation from other language. In English gay isn't offensive. Original word is. I don't know better english word... A twat? Man whore? You get the idea... I think.

                      Is it considered irony to be called a nerd by the other nerds? :)

                      A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.

                        Hetero merely indicates 'Otherness'. For example if you have two differently coloured eyes it is because you are Heterochromatic. If you get you energy by eating things then you are a heterotroph. Homo means 'The Same' A word that sounds the same as another in a homophone. If you have identical pairs of genes for any hereditary characteristics the you are homozygous. If always stand up in the same way you are Homo Erectus. OK, not the last one!

                                Well, you don't seem to mind too much. In fact you could be said to be wearing them with gay abandon. Could be the OP was right.

                                        Well today I am wearing the least creased shirt I own that fits me. I will become more crumpled over the remainder of the week. Next week unless there is a sharp turnaround in the ironing situation I will be dressed in either slightly crumpled and ill fitting clothes or very crumpled ones.

                                        If you start to feel the need to reach for an iron, we will have some proof to the OP's original hypothesis. :laugh:

                                          That's just pathetic. And someone else who makes themselves feel better by discriminating against others.
