Not On My Team Edit Meaning

1.

Said by gay people in hopes that someone (usually unattractive or unpleasant) is not gay, to avoid bringing down the general reputation of gay men/ lesbians. Can also be "my team" to a non-queer audience, or "our team" to a queer audience.

The reverse works too "I hope she's on our team- Jodi's so hot."

"I *hope* he's not on my team, even though he keeps referring to his 'partner'. Joe is SO obnoxious."
