I know people make fun at anyone who doesnt conform to their vision of normality.

This is not ever going to change----so I think live you life in best and most honest and decent fashion you can-----do not let the whims and arrows of narrow minded people bog you down----not everybody is going to able to come to the realization that is going to 2012---not 1912.

There are like 100 guys where I work and none are gay.

I cant see a gay guy fitting in at all to be honest. And yes, they would definitely get some ribbing about it.

Gay people have been made fun on every job I ever had. I don't mind if you are gay and professional but if you are gay and wearing pink shoes and can't carry yourself like a professional then I dont want to be around you.

As a straight man, I might actually be in the minority among men in my workplace. Yet, I still hear occasional insults. But I've also heard people make fun of me, behind my back, for being skinny or having droopy eyelids. It happens to most people. Humanity is not so good at celebrating its differences.

I work with Mexicans which means that everyone, all the time, is accusing everyone else, all the time, of being a mariposa. It passes the time.

Well, out of 100 guys, at least 5 of them are most likely gay based on statistics. Not really sure how you would know none of them are.
