In the EuroPride2006 thread Hegs, RR's first openly gay matelot, mentioned that his shipmates usually realised he was gay (if I have understood correctly) by the fact that he drank Earl Grey tea, read The Guardian (better known as the Grauniad) and listened to classsical music!
I have to confess, barring the choice of tea - I prefer Oolong/Lapsang souchong/Assam orange pekoe - I too have read the Grauniad for well over 15 years and loved classical music since a child (a long, long, time ago), and YES, I too am gay. Perhaps Hegs is onto something - a brilliant discovery that's baffled scientists, even Richard Dawkins (no mean feat!) and he's in line for a Nobel Prize?
This survey is for all varieties of matelot/ex-matelot/civvy who answer YES to ALL of the following questions:-
Do you read the Guardian?
Do you like classical music?
Do you drink exotic teas/coffees?
