An occurrence--usually something that someone says or does--that perfectly exhibits their closeted homosexuality. A pun on 'Example A'.
Example 1:
Person 1: Jerry is totally into Brad. I can just tell.
Person 2: What? Jerry's straight.
Person 1: Jerry is gay.
Person 2: No he isn't!
Person 1: Example gAy: He wore leopard-print skinny jeans yesterday.
Example 2:
I don't understand how Paul's mom still hasn't realized he likes guys. Example gAy: he teaches an 'Urban Tango' class at the learning center on Fridays.
A gay guy who looks similar/ has a similar height/ build/ personality/ category to another gay guy.
If these two gays were food products in a supermarket, they would be found in the same aisle and, depending on how similar they are, the same shelf, due to being virtually the same product.
These gay people will typically have the same guys go for each them, and will often compete for the same guys in return, which typically creates an unspoken rivalry between the two of them.
ANOTHER one of my exes has been going out with that James guy again. That James is SUCH a shelf gay omgggg sksksksks
You can't act gay for all of may
Yo bro I heard Fernando lost no gay may after he decided to sing Beyonce at the talent show!
The nod that one queer person gives to another queer person as an acknowledgement of their gayness. You might not know each other, but if you look gay enough, it doesn't matter.
Cassidy: Hey is Rachel into girls
Alex: Idk but she's been giving me the gay-nod for the last two weeks so go for it
When straight guys adopt feminine or borderline homosexual tendencies for the purpose of appeasing women into having sex with them. Term coined by Brandon Wardell during a stand-up set. Common examples include painted nails, makeup, glitter, feminine clothing, and feigning attraction to your own sex in conversation. Most frequently employed by guys around alt-girls.
"All you fellas who are gay for pussy, you're on notice." - Brandon
"Did you see Thomas walking around campus with painted nails the other day? That Shit is so outta character for him."
"He's just gay for pussy in order to impress that indie chick he's been hooking up with, nothing more to it."
