Wow, yeah, not okay.

I sympathize with you, OP. I've known one or two gay guys like that (who seem to think they have a free pass to comment on women's appearances, or get into their personal space.)

Try to keep objective and calm. Tell him those comments are not work-appropriate. It's absolutely not appropriate to comment on someone's appearance or make disaparaging remarks about their appearance - doesn't matter if you're not a straight dude, it can still qualify as workplace bullying. Calling people "bitch" and telling people to kill themselves is totally NOT okay. Perhaps you could remind him that, while you may not take it personally, there are other people who work with him who COULD be hurt like that? Comments encouraging suicide ESPECIALLY.

Come at it through the lens of "proper workplace behaviour" because this is really what it's about. And never, ever get personal. (The anon above who suggested coming back at him with slurs is wrong. That will only make the situation worse, and then you're being just as derogatory as him.)
