People in glass closets shouldn't throw stones.
If that hasn't become a commonly used phrase, it certainly should - especially since it concerns two of my friends currently at loggerheads. Well perhaps that's overstating the facts a tad but they have been covertly sparring on the field of conversation; though they both might deny the outrageous insinuation since the pair are deathly afraid of calumny.
So let's place Diffident David in one corner; bantam chicken tough and defiantly padlocked in the closet regardless of any well-meaning attempts to break him out of it. While on the other side of the ring you have Ambiguous Aaron, someone we've taken to calling the Maybe Gay. Although there have been a lot of hints and suggestions from him - not to mention an almost substantiated rumour, he hasn't as yet confirmed our growing suspicion.
Really, why bother hiding in the closet when everyone can see through it?
Though they are both in equally fragile glass closets, they seem to have no visible qualms over throwing stones at one another.
Even out in the public. One would think being on the downlow themselves it would make them less likely to out someone else instead but they seem to almost enjoy goading each other out of the proverbial closet.
Aaron : Why are you so afraid?
David : I'm not afraid. You are the one!
Aaron : We are alright with you being gay.
David : What about you!
Aaron : This isn't about me.
David : You don't say me ah, you also the same.
So on and on, back and forth it goes. Tiny little pebbles carelessly cast at glass closets causing minute cracks to form. While the rest of us watch eagerly waiting to hear the shatter, smash and splinter of their cowering screens.
At this rate, we won't have to pay for atonement waffles for a really long time.
