Unless the original question was "what sport do you like?", then the "I like baseball" with nothing else fits...but in most cases, the response would be something of "I like baseball and don't follow football so....etc etc" We have taken the three words "I'm not gay" for discussion and not even make reference to what the remaining stated. "I'm not gay, so it would be difficult for me to understand...etc etc".
Speaking as a crossdreser that doesn't like Piers Morgan or is Mongolian, and taking responses in this thread, the subject isn't "Who's gay here?", but "Why is being gay a problem?", yet how many have started off by saying "I'm not gay, but....." or words to that effect? Doesn't the fact that contributors making that assertion are implying that there is in fact something wrong with being gay?
