Why are people saying I'm gay?

The Curmudgeon says, of this picture on Second Fiddle's blog,
"One of them is about to bitch-slap the other."
This is not true. Okay, I admit that I do look a little gay in this picture, but it's the bloody artist's fault. Thank God (sorry dad) for the modern camera! Artists make everyone look like a bloody women.
What is actually happrning is that John the Baptist has just chased a crow away that bit me him the arm. Poor old John (tB), crows are always pecking him. You can see me examining the wound. I am not particularly enjoying touching his arm and definitely don't feel aroused.
