What Stand by Me boy are you?


Girls feel free to answer too.

I would say I am the Gordie of the group. I was the shy, bookish one and my siblings and cousins were the popular, sporty etc type. I was always compared to my relatives.

I saw this film for the first time when I was 14 and identified with Gordie, even now 10 years later Gordie still reminds me of myself.

Mrs Voorhees is watching you!

Vern, definitely.

I am an intellectual Gordy for sure. But I would have been close to Chris and would probably say I'd be a Chris as an adult, but still definitely a Gordy.
