Fabulous queer dating tip #5: Don't make him think you're special.

Have you ever thought about running a personal ad in which you describe yourself as something to the effect of "VGL GM, masc prof mil/frat-jock dude, younger-looking, work out 4-5x/wk, not impressed with others' degrees or careers, Midwestern small-town values, cowboy at heart"? So have about 95% of gay men, even those "cowboys" whose closest exposure to livestock is having fishtanks in their Logan Circle apartments, so you're definitely on the right track. Also, when you go to the bar, you'll see that we can all express our individuality in exactly the same way, so be sure to study and emulate the uniform prevailing fashion.
