While this is a true story, the names & location have been changed as we still live in the same town. I'll call myself Rick, while not being the most macho guy I was still considered pretty cool. His name let's say is Kevin, he was very effeminate in comparison to most other guys, I think his parents treating him more like a maid than a son had something to do with it. Although so many others didn't like him, I thought he was ok and to be honest felt sorry for his parents treatment of him. Once while his family was visiting mine his father told him to do the dishes, my mom said no but he insisted. When Kevin protested he was spanked, imagine the horror an 18 year old must have felt, not only being spanked but having us in the room. My mom went ape shit yelling at his father & mother, we didn't see them again for a long time.
The year is 1977, I'm 19 years old & in my 2nd year of college, Kevin 18 years old was graduating high school that year. We live in New Jersey, both belonging to the same boys youth organization (the organization shall remain nameless), I am the leader, being voted in for my third term while Kevin was two steps below me hoping to be voted into my position when I age out.
The lodge that housed our group was 3 towns over, we live only about a mile apart so I drove to our monthly meetings. One evening our meeting ended very early, on the way home I asked Kevin if he wanted to stop & talk a while. Kevin wasn't in a hurry to go home and agreed. Pulling off the road in a quite neighborhood not far from where we lived, we spoke for a while when I decided, I just had to ask him a question that's been on my mind for quite some time.
"Kevin, can I ask you a personal question?" I asked.
"Sure what do you want to know?" he asked.
"Well I don't know if you are aware, but the other guys in the lodge have been talking about you, uh well they think you are gay." I said.
"Well if I was would it be any of their business?" Kevin asked without giving an answer.
"I know I don't care, I just wanted to make sure you knew it." I told him.
"Yeah I kind of guessed, I saw a couple of the guys making fun of me while they thought I wasn't around, you know trying to walk like I do while limply bending a wrist." he said.
"I'm sorry you had to see that, I'll talk to them if you want?" I asked.
"No I don't think you can stop them anyway. To answer your question, I haven't been with anyone, since as you know my parents never let me go out unless it's to lodge, but I've never been interested in girls and I am always with guys, so yes I believe I'm gay," he said.
"Ok, you see I really thought you might be and figured I could ask you some questions, but guess you really can't answer them since you haven't been with another guy," I said.
"Ask me maybe I might know the answer, a few friends in high school were gay and I picked their minds about many things," he said.
Not able to search the internet back then, the only way to get answers were asking questions, but who do you ask? I thought Kevin being a friend & thinking at least before tonight that he might be gay, I said, "Well you know I've dated girls and have had sex with a couple, ok I talked a lot and he knew, but I have sometimes had dreams about guys and wondered what it felt like."
"I can only tell you what my friends told me, everyone said it felt amazing and the taste of a dick was wonderful," he said.
