It asserts stereotypical masculinity in more than one way. Also, it'll probably take her completely by surprise.

I might try that actually. :lol:

I do mean both response and p****.

I would say it's best to just not talk to this person. Ever.

Had this thought. But she is my room-mates girlfriend so cannot do that. Was thinking of avoiding her as much as possible.

She might not believe what you've told her about your orientation given other evidence (from her point of view).

Too little information.

Perhaps the important question is why it's on your mind. Do you have any problems with being seen as homosexual by others? Is her opinion (or, your roommate's opinion) of your sexuality specifically important to you?

Its on my mind because she is(is/was I do not know) a nice person. I was comfortable with this girl as well. I did not expect her to say something like this.
Why will I want to be seen as a homosexual when I am straight?
No their opinion of my sexuality does not hold importance.

I don't know either. However, I do know this: when you present a little differently than a "normal person" people will sometimes first assume it is your sexual orientation that is responsible for the difference, not knowing any other reason.

As I have already quoted in the question, She knows VERY well as a fact that I am straight.

I wouldn't read too much into it. I once accidentally convinced all the women in my European studies class that I was gay. That was...awkward.

No have not tried this. Probably will be trying some "blunt and crass" response soon.

Is your roommate trying to get rid of you so that she can move in? Perhaps you and the roommate must have a talk so that he can get his woman in line.

I read it as a joke.

Kind of inappropriate if you guys aren't friends though.

If she's hot, just pretend to be gay and she'll most likely start walking around naked when you're around. Then once she does simply say "Damn, I don't think I'm gay" while staring right at her.

Guys being "easier" is such a stupid misconception anyway.

She is teasing you. Ask her politely to stop and that you don't find it funny or appreciate it.

Try to remain on high ground and do not lower yourself to her (metaphorically). I have had great success with handling situations like that, that start with curious teasing and end in annoying and constant harassment. If she were to drop another one along the lines that she thinks you are gay, just turn to her, look her in the eyes ( I know it's hard), and tell her with a little smile and in a friendly manner (not in that seriouy "I will find you, and I will kill you"-manner)something like that:
"Please listen carefully. I have told you before, but maybe I have not made myself clear enough: I am not homosexual. I would not deny it if I was, I have nothing against it, I simply am not. I am straight and I like women, simple as that. I appreciated your concerns about me finding a suitable partner, and your suggestion to find me a boyfriend might have been with the best intentions, but your persistance about hinting that you think I am gay is sincerely starting to annoy me. Hence, I would kindly ask to accept what I have just told you and stop. Thank you!"

It does if you say it in the proper tone. Proper being threatening.
