Abstract

In March of 2013, British Royal, Prince Harry, was reported by PinkNews. co.uk as having graciously accepted the phone number of a gay man in a nightclub. While details of the actual exchange are unknown, the gay man tweeted, “I gave Prince Harry my number tonight, he promised he’ll call me if he changes his mind about women. Or men. #epicwin.” If reported properly the exchange is indicative of the fact that this young, laddish, helicopter-flying, war-veteran Prince is not offended by being sexually propositioned by other men. This means that when he is politely propositioned by a gay or bisexual male, it is incumbent upon him to reject the offer graciously. In this case, the Prince has found a way to do this.
