Queer Eye of a Gay Blogger Part 3

Tops and Bottoms, and FAQs
I still have second thoughts and contemplating on continuing my
"Queer Eye of a Gay Blogger posts since I left a sensitive [I think] issue the last time. To refresh those who had chanced upon reading it, I stated that the next gay topic would be our [us gays] preference/role during romp time – being TOP or BOTTOM.
I really had a hard time choosing the words and jargons that I will be using. I want the post to be presented in a subtle yet informative approach without crossing over that [thin] line between [gay] sex education and sleazy gay erotica.
In a matter-of-factly manner, being a top or bottom refers to the role of gay couples during consensual intercourse. Bottoms take the role of the woman and tops, the role of man, as correlated to the straight or heterosexual way of making love. Tops do the pumping and penetration while bottoms are the receiver at the backdoor entry. Though bottoms can also do the pumping and humping, same with woman-on-top position for heteros, still, the most common position used among gay couples is the missionary. It ranked only second to the popular belief that gays like to do it canine style. There are gays, who are even comfortable taking either role, they are the VERSATILES.
So there!

By the way, here are the most commonly asked questions about me being gay. Some are quite stupid and some does make sense. I am usually asked these questions by officemates, newly acquired friends and potential partners:
- Do you have a boyfriend?
- Are you circumcised?
- What’s your nick/pseudo name come night time? Marla?
- If you are stuck alone with a gorgeous sexy lady, say in a deserted island, what will you do?
- Do you have gay relatives?
- Do you plan to have kids [my own] if ever?
- What does your father say about is [me being gay]?
- How to give the best ‘head’ ever?
- Have you ever been attracted to girls?
- Do you wear girls’ or women’s clothes?
- Do you apply make up?
- Top or Bottom?
