So this happened:
It’s a Venn diagram labeled “men” (that I’ve translated into Chinese, perhaps badly). The categories work as follows:
- handsome + nice: stupid
- nice + intelligent: nerd
- handsome + intelligent: arrogant
- handsome + nice + intelligent: gay
English original is here.
It is quite good fun (especially when you realise you must be gay, as I did. Sorry girls). But then you’ve got to admit it could also be quite offensive, reverse-bigotry is still bigotry after all.
Is it in bad taste or just a light-hearted joke?
If you found this useful, consider helping me out in return.

It’s a truth… I’m not the only girl with a gay best friend for those same reasons
Due to the scarcity of this combination (handsome + nice + intelligent), even if you see one, you’ll feel it’s too good to be true. Perfect person doesn’t exist in today’s world, does it? So “he” must be a gay, even if you meet one, you won’t get one.
The original was written by George Takei, who is gay. Not sure if that makes it acceptable though..
No one is perfect that is for sure. However, I do have some friends with very nice characteristics and they are not gay.
