You will certainly have missed the vast majority of Gay people who are anonymous in society, simply because they are not marked out as a GAY but as an everyday sort of person.
I am a Gay man, there is no such thing as Gaydar, I can only make ill informed assessments based on a stanger's behaviour, in which I am either right or wrong in classing a "straight" man as gay or a gay man as "straight.
In the end I would prefer to feel that I can categorise someone else, based on a good knowledge of who they are, not what the appear to be.

I am sorry but for me I can often tell. Even gay guys who are not screamers. Knew nothing about Gareth Thomas and thought he was gay, bingo he was (and he hasn't stopped droning on about being gay since).
Dan says no one could tell he was gay when he joined the Force. Eh? Dan is camp, granted he's not Alan Carr levels of camp but the fact that he managed to dupe women into sleeping with him beggers believe. These women must have been really sheltered or in denial
The women who insisted that Clay Aitkin or whatever his name is just seemed really silly. Oh c'mon. How did people ever think George Michael was straight? Are folks blind. Women who marry gay men with out realising, seriously?? seriously? Have these women met their husbands

There's a gay guy I used to work with who is gay, everyone knows it despite the fact he pretends he's straight. None of us out him or tell him as loads of gays like to think they can fool straights with their straight acting and take pride in the 'no one can tell I am gay' bless. It seems cruel to tell them

We know, we know. No biggie.
I don't get why so many gay men get annoyed that women can increasingly tell when men are gay. It's 2013. Seriously doubt a Liberace would be able to fool women and sue a paper for claiming he was gay...and win. I spotted Frank Ocean as gay long long before he came out, even though everyone said there's no way pseudo-homophobe and Frank's group collaborator Tyler the Creator would work with a gay bloke in Future
