Yes. All heterosexuals carry stationary in a hap-dash manner.

Its nothing to do with sexuality I meant it unofficially.

As a gay guy I can confirm that it was indeed the carrying of pencil cases (as well as colour coded post-its and highlighters) that made me homosexual. Avoid if at all possible.

I'd say that the adults on your course would be intelligent enough to recognise that your choice of stationary has nothing to do with your sexual orientation :colondollar:
Totally. Because bringing a pencil case to college for convenience purposes shows that you like the same sex.
ye pretty gay. Straight men use the force.

Moreover, homosexuals are widely recognised for their love of organisation and storage solutions.

If your actually being serious and from what I am understanding from you question a clear pencil case with the essentials is fine.
Depends whether you'd rather be the pencil or the case.

yes very gay you already know that why ask
Buy a sharpie and write "NO HOMO" on your pencil case, that's what I would do.
Not only are pencil cases indicative of homosexual predilections, but many of us use them to signal out sexual preferences to fellow gays when we are looking to pick someone up. Different colours are used to indicate top, bottom, submissive, dominant, bdsm, etc.

So what if he used the word 'gay' to describe something? Why must everyone be so politically-correct? And, regarding the actual topic of this thread (something people seem to have forgotten), I would still have a pencil case, but would carry it around inside another bag and would try to use it as discreetly as possible.


1). Offensive to those it matters to - e.g. me.

2). Derogatory

3). Using gay as an insult reinforces homophobic/anti-gay ideals

4). It has nothing to do with being politically correct but everything to do with being an idiot
