Giving a whole new meaning to the "cross" in cyclocross?

Okay, now I'm confused. Are you saying that straight women hit on strange
men aggressively? Or that gay men hit aggressively on straight women?

Only Fabrizio could say for sure, but I'm guessing that the answer
would be no, at least unless you were properly accessorized.

There's a lot of regional variability in this. In NYC, for instance,
you would not need to be in the Greenwich Village area to possibly
have it happen. In Dallas, on the other hand, no gay guy is going to
make an approach outside the districts where they feel safe doing it,
and they're going to be far more circumspect about it even when
they're on their own turf. This is a simple survival tactic; behavior
that's de rigueur in San Fran may get you lynched in Little Rock.
Here in Houston, outside of a fairly well-defined part of town,
there's essentially zero danger of having a gay guy make a pass at
you. With a SBSP jersey, the much greater hazard is that some snotty
little four-year-old with a monied imbecile parent will pester you and
start grabbing parts of the bike.

A little airbrush work to do a rework of SpongeBob (maybe making the
expression evil, and adding bandoliers and an M16) would end any such
concerns from either direction, of course.

And there's always this version...

or

Last but not least, it is reportedly the case the gay guys can spot
each other to a significant extent; I have been told in no uncertain
terms that I'm in no danger of having any of them hitting on me
because I wouldn't look gay to one of them if I was wearing an evening
gown, makeup and heels. I think I'll take their word for it.

I happen to have a very attractive female coworker who loves Sponge
Bob. She would love your jersey. Actually, I think a lot of girls
would find it cute, and would think you must be secure in your
maculinity. So the problem might be that you would be hit on by
straight females, not gay men. Which of course is only a problem if
you're already spoken for. Otherwise, it's Ba-da-ba-BING!

Do what you want, don't worry too much about what anyone else thinks.
Sheldon Brown sums it up nicely:

Yes, but what *would* one wear to properly accessorize SpongeBob?
Fishnets just wouldn't be right, somehow.

Real men wear whatever they damned well please.

That's right. Straight or gay, better to have a pair.

That looks absolutely gay. It must be banned.

I thought that the paired spoke claims had been debunked on
rec.bicycles.tech.

I admit that I am not hot looking. So, I don't get hits that much
however, I have gotten about the same number of hits from women and gay
men. But, I don't have a name like Ron Sonic.

Certainly, acting gay must be banned. Especially if someone doesn't
know if Sheldon is gay or gay? Unless you go to his website and then
you realize that he is gay, but not gay.

Out of curiosity, who is neither gay nor gay? who is gay but not gay?
who is gay and gay? who is not gay but gay? Who is repressing his
gayness? Who is repressing his gayness?

It's not the church... after all, a line from a popular Christmas song
suggests that we "don we now our gay apparel", so obviously they're
down with the SBSP jersey.
