When I emailed my student about bringing her to school tomorrow, I included a line about how there aren't many hot guys so not a lot of eye candy to admire while there.
Why?
For this: "Everything looks amazing on the schedule, but the question is not if there are attractive men, but rather brilliant and attractive women. I'm gay so the guy comment has kept me laughing for the last 20 minutes. Thanks for thinking of me anyway."
I have yet to find a good way to get people to out themselves to me. So, look at me - resorting to heterosexist speech to elicit it.
Not my apex of diversite encouragement, but hey, at least she got a laugh. And my gaydar still scoring pretty high. Though not so good with boys. I always assume they're gay - and maybe they are but repressing.

That's our good friend, [your name here]...a big ole' hegemonist. (Eyes rolling.)
Nice sleuthing, too. Brilliant. Refined. Discreet. You'd make a good martini.
