The hankie thing was used a lot amongst the bondage crowd in the 70s and 80s, you wore a certain colour in a certain location to express your interest.
You know what I think? I think some gay people are simply shyer about risking the chance of hitting on a straight person by mistake than others. Given the number of "straight" men (and women too but not so much) who end up in gay bars or parks or cruising the Internet for sex, or what have you, perhaps they figure why not, I might get lucky, even if the guy is "straight." Some people are just more aggressive than others.

Leagl,
Here's a question. A few weeks ago I'm at a bar with some work acquaintances. The group is discussing a person at work who no one likes. A clearly gay friend of a coworker asks me why no one likes this person who's being discussed. I, not thinking at all, say "He's a cocksucker". I assume that comment is not offensive, but being overly analytical when bored, I wonder... Is it rude to use a slang word for a gay male sex act as an insult in the presence of gay dudes? I guess you could make the case that "cocksucker" is also offensive to straight women.
