Yeah, i'm sure theres more to it too, social and cultural conditioning and self identifying to behaviors etc, and yes, a person who is extrovert but not overtly feminine could certainly be gay too, as im sure all such personality traits are possible in conjunction with any sexuality, even if their are identified biasess which have enabled stereotyping. That said, i merely think his extrovertness+expressive feelings is what allows his sexuality to be presumed (correctly) within moments of his speaking, and its the contrasting personality of the other guy that makes it less quick to deduce (and i too would probably have to be told to know). So more of a case of considering this 1 instance, rather than getting deep into stereotyped (accurately or otherwise) behavior that we are attuned too and use to assign sexuality.

Wasn't there a vid on here that looked into this? how quick can we guess correctly someones sexuality just form a silhouette of them sitting down? sure there was...

Yeah, here it is, that part being at around -2.50

Crap, I downvoted. I meant to upvote. Anyways, it is not that NSFW because it is mostly silhouette cartoon.

in response to the hidden things, i think there's ET's silhouette in the plane window.

I've never been able to figure out science fictions obsession with giant bipedal walkers as weapons platforms. Unless the weapons of the future have less range and accuracy then the weapons of today, a Mechwarrior style walker will never be successful. I'd have to imagine that you'd be able to see those spider looking walkers from miles and miles away, and with modern weapons if you can see something you are capable of killing it. You just need to take a look at the casualty rates of different models of tanks in the real world; the tanks with taller silhouettes invariably take much higher casualties because they are more easily seen. Anyway, just a pet peeve of mine.

"Gimme some inner peace or I'll mop the floor with you!"
"Good, your mind is in a state of readiness!"

What happens next - Homer wanders around the city trying to find a soul-mate because he doubts Marge is. He winds up in a lighthouse projecting his silhouette through the light like the bat-signal. (Bart: "Wow - batman's really let himself go.") But Marge tracks him down, deducing where his wanderings would lead him because she knows him so well, and he concludes she really is his soul-mate. Then the lighthouse goes on the fritz and a cargo boat full of hot-pants crashes on the nearby reef, spilling it's contents into the bay where the whole town turns out to try them on.

Wow, I thought this guy shot himself or something. I remember reading that he was pretty crushed because of the whole Numa Numa thing. And oh yeah that's him already. I would never forget that silhouette.

I speak russian, the song is about a hunter hunting a rabbit, the chorus is just phonetic musical mishmash.

He counts from 1 to 5, and then says "the rabbit came out, all of a sudden a hunter comes out and shots the rabbit... a new life"

"Excuse me? Could I interested you in some canned fish?"

Prosta Tak - "Just like that".

Ya lubu teba, ve lubit - "I love you, you love me"

My erection says... top15!!

(What is this silhouette, profile thing you speak of? I can imagine a dashboard camera as an SUV is going over rocks..)

Watching it a second time, it's a brilliant silhouette of a car driving along a road. Is that acceptable, or is this too much for sift? I decided to take it straight to the blog for discussion instead of letting it linger in the queue.

Apparently from Germany where there's no problem at all with this sort of ad.
