He he he, or as us his-PANICS say, "Je je je"
Lati-NOs are now the biggest minority group in the USA, but this is recent news, and as I mentioned, I was there in the early 90's.
And about being flattered, I( don't take offence at all, but it really doesn't impress me when people come on strong to me, guy or girl. I've always been anti-social so I'm usually like "what the fuck do you want from me?" (to myself, not aloud) I also can't trust strangers. So no, I can't say I'm flattered even when a gourgeous girl I don't know is after me. If I saw you on the street I'd probably greet you with a blank stare or a hard "don't fuck with me" type look, just from who I am and experiences I've had.
If a gay dude is coming on to me what I meant about setting him straight is that I first tell him I'm Hetero, and if that doesn't work I tell them to keep professional boundaries, because I could report them or exclude them from our studies (Where I work we do investigational studies that compensate financially) which will usually clear it up, beacause participants here are looking to get paid. I had a guy fresh out of prison show me his junk in the hallway after I had screened him for a study, trying to show me a chankre sore he had. I reported his ass and he wasn't welcome here anymore. That is what I meant.
