		Stepanov took Gaydar to the emergency room at Pavia Hospital where she was initially diagnosed as suffering from septic shock, which the emergency room doctors attributed to her abortion.

		Gaydar alleged, inter alia, that the clinic and Dr. Ortiz-Perez negligently failed to detect her ectopic pregnancy on April 24 and May 5, thereby leading to the rupture of her fallopian tube and her need for emergency surgery on May 9.

	Gaydar (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Gaydar (a portmanteau of gay and radar) is the intuitive ability to determine whether another person is gay, bisexual, or otherwise not heterosexual.
		The idea of "gaydar" relies on indirect senses and intuitions rather than direct questions ("Are you gay?") or fact-finding (like researching the identity of previous romantic partners).
		The idea of gaydar as an ability is also complicated by homomasculinity (gay men exhibiting masculine characteristics) and the rise of the metrosexual.

	Gaydar - Education - Information - Educational Resources - Encyclopedia - Music
		Gaydar (a portmanteau of gay and radar) is a slang term for the supposed ability to be able to tell on sight if another person is gay, bisexual or otherwise not heterosexual.
		The operation of gaydar is sometimes claimed to depend on sensitivity to a wide variety of clues: overt violations of gender role on the obvious end, and more subtle clues, like reactions to questions, on the other.
		The concept of gaydar tends to be treated as a joke, cliché, or cultural artifact in the gay community rather than as an entirely serious concept, though some believe fairly firmly in their or others' ability to exercise gaydar.

		In the Gaydar test, the person in the photo has indicated their sexual orientation, so unless they're closeted to themselves, it's objectively known which they are, so it is the voter who is being judged based on how accurately they vote, instead of the photo being judged by the voters.
