Resolution Criteria

This market will resolve based on my personal assessment of whether I believe my friend Will has "turned gay." Given the subjective nature of this question, I will provide my opinion to determine the outcome.

Background

Sexual orientation is a deeply personal aspect of an individual's identity. It's important to recognize that assumptions about someone's sexual orientation based on behaviors, interests, or social circles can be misleading. Research indicates that relying on stereotypes or "gaydar" is often inaccurate and can perpetuate harmful biases. (en.wikipedia.org)

Considerations

• Privacy and Respect: Speculating about someone's sexual orientation without their explicit disclosure can infringe on their privacy and may lead to misunderstandings.

• Complexity of Sexual Orientation: Sexual orientation is not always visible or discernible through external cues. It's a complex interplay of various factors, and outward behaviors may not accurately reflect an individual's orientation.

• Communication: If there's a need to understand someone's sexual orientation, the most respectful approach is open and honest communication, allowing the individual to share their identity on their own terms.
