What are the general characteristics of gay? Please explain in detail from the aspects of appearance, clothing, etc.

The word "Gay" has had a sexual meaning since at least19th century (maybe earlier). In Victorian England, both women and men were called "homosexuals" (because they were brightly dressed). So in the end, "gay boys" (male geisha) became the name of all brothers and gay men. In the United States, the term may come from the tramp group: a young tramp, or a "gay cat" or an "intermittent cat", often has to make friends with another older and experienced tramp in order to get a chance to learn and survive. There is sex in this relationship, so "gay cat" means "young gay". Among these earliest "homosexuals", Thomas collingwood is the most famous. He is a chubby musician with a face like an angel. After long-term unemployment, he fell into a difficult life.

In addition, Gay is also a common English name, which is often translated into guy in Chinese. People include tyson gay (American 100 meter star) and rudy gay (NBA player).

There is also an anecdote about the usage of Guy's name: On June 29th, 2008, tyson gay, a famous sprinter, won the 100-meter sprint championship with the fastest score of 9.68 seconds in human history in the track and field qualifying competition of the American Olympic Games. Due to the influence of the wind direction at that time, the result could not be recognized as a new world record. When news was released on major websites, One News Now, a news website that was run by a religious background group in the United States in the name of "defending the family" and has been attacking homosexuality, automatically changed Gay into homophobia (a medical term for homosexuality) because of the filtering function of the website, so the website appeared: "tyson gay ran 100 meter, the fastest record, and the wind helped him run for 9.68 seconds".

Gay has a narrow sense and a broad sense.

Homosexuality in a narrow sense only refers to men who tend to have sexual or emotional relations with other men. Homosexuality in a broad sense refers to men and women who tend to have sexual or emotional relations with the same sex. (However, this point is controversial, so some people will use the word "lesbian and gay". Please meet gay people. Whether bisexuality is included in these usages is also a controversial issue (see bisexuality).

Some people claim that gay is abbreviated from the first letter of the sentence "Good As You", but this is based on the false etymology of the word gay.

Another folk etymology is related to Gay Street, which is located in new york West Village, which is connected with gay culture. According to the literature, it seems that this term once existed in new york in the form of code at 1940s. "Are you gay?" This question shows that there may be more meaning than outsiders seem.
