You weren’t wearing your “I’m not gay, but my boyfriend is” t-shirt, were you?

Okay, when will it be official? Have y’all had that conversation? I know you’re just enjoying the flow of whatever it is, but…

Oh, and the salesman had gaydar.

My partner and I have done a fair share of bed shopping together (well, at least 3 times for 3 different beds) and we’re always surprised at the great reception we receive. We used to be all self-conscious about shopping for household items together, but now…hey, we’re gay afterall…maybe too old to care anymore…isn’t that part of the comfort?

While we’re typically sheparded to the female sales people, the sales folks have also insisted that we both lie down on the mattress at the same time, bounce around, you know, spend some time there…bed movement test, etc.

While most of the sales people in our liberal area are non plussed (sp?), the looks from other shoppers are priceless: “look honey, two men on a bed bouncing…do you suppose they’re gay?” Duh.

I suppose that we could be two straight men, but the rolling around at the sales person’s insistence to test “spring” gave us away. That and the giggling from both of us…can you feel the bounce now?

aww come now, two guys shopping for a bed together?? If I was the sales clerk, I wouldn’t have come right out and said it, but I’d be thinking it in my head. I mean its a good guess.

ummm… my gaydar is pinging.
the salesman’s a sister. He was probably hoping to be invited over to personally install it and ensure customer satisfaction. Just an extremely well educated and perceptive guess.

First of all I know what its like to have the wrong size bed. I’m 6’4 so when I’m in bed my feet hang out over the end (in my normal size bed). But I’m so used to it now I don’t think I could have a bigger bed as it would feel all weird now.
All very interesting theories but I have maybe the simplest. Maybe he reads the blog and knew who you were. And was just trying to show you something that might have springs that can stand up to two guys (and what guys you are) going at it.
But if he was a reader he would have dove on the bed he was offering and offered to show you how comfortable it was.
Or is that just what I would do.
