From NBC the Late Show with Seth Meyers

The first time Anderson Cooper met Seth Meyers, the CNN anchor admits the former SNL star made his gaydar go off.

As Anderson revealed during a visit with Seth on last night's edition of Late Night, the two used to work out at the same gym. "It was pretty much the gayest gym on the planet," Anderson told Seth, "and I assumed you were gay because there weren’t a lot of other reasons to be there."

"It was before you officially game out," responded Seth, "so I thought it was [a] straight [gym] because you were there.

Tonight Huffington Post Columnist Rachel Thompson and Writer/Critic Bennet Pomerantz discussion of the term  GAYDAR

 

Our guest is the author Bradford Noble, author Dating Bradford and life coast

in case you dont know what is it..Gaydar (a portmanteau of gay and radar) is a colloquialism referring to the intuitive ability of a person to assess others' sexual orientations as gay, bisexual or heterosexual. Gaydar relies almost exclusively on non-verbal clues and LGBT stereotypes. These include (but are not limited to) the sensitivity to social behaviors and mannerisms; for instance, acknowledging flamboyant body language, the tone of voice used by a person when speaking, overtly rejecting traditional gender roles, a person's occupation, and grooming habits.
