    I tell this story all the time.

    I was hanging out with this dude that I did drugs with, and I told him about a chick I hooked up with the night before. I told him that she preferred butt stuff, and he told me that he would never do anal with a chick. I asked why, and he said “Having anal sex with a chick is exactly the same as having anal sex with a dude. Thus anal sex is always gay regardless of the partner makeup.” So, he said it a lot dumber than I typed it and with a southern accent. But, you get the idea.

    This is the same guy that said he’d never take ecstasy because “it makes you act gay”. That dude sure was worried about being gay. Hehehe

      It’s so sad. I love when mostly straight people feel comfortable enough in their sexuality to act, “gay.” Sometimes people do it wrong, flirting and then getting mad when queer people catch feelings, but it usually shows that the person is accepting and comfortable with who they are. If they discover that they actually aren’t straight, there shouldn’t be anything wrong with that either.

    This is what they mean when they say it’s hard to be a straight white male. Who can keep track of all the tiny things that might cause you to turn gay?

        I was with you until this part. The bigger the truck, the more heterosexual you are. Especially if the truck is super loud. Anything smaller than a Silverado and you’d probably consider having your ass penetrated.

    Isn’t being that insecure stereotypically feminine behaviour - ya know… Kinda gay?

    If you want to be gay, be gay. If you want to be a bit gay, be a bit gay. if you don’t, that’s totally fine too - Just stop worrying about crossing some arbitrary line into… what?

    If cleaning up after yourself leads to you railing some dude, the cleaning up was never the problem, and maybe you just opened yourself up to something wonderful.

      It sounds like you’re trying to apply reason to the perception of behaviour as masculine, feminine, straight or gay, and the perception of those categorisations as positive or negative.

      That is misguided :)

        I’m just applying the same type of nonsensical stereotypes this group will display to show that this is gay behaviour too, and the entire discussion is moronic. I say this as a cishet guy that went to a boys school and heard all this nonsense regularly.

        Just clean up your shit - if that somehow leads you to discover your love of men, roll with it… you were almost certainly always gay, and that’s something to embrace not fear.

          Yeah, but “applying the same type of stereotypes” is an example of trying to reason about this kind of thinking which can’t be done. You see a parallel between worrying about something silly like how you’re perceived for being green, and other stereotypically feminine behaviours - but prejudiced people don’t see or don’t care about that parallel.

            Those prejudiced people aren’t likely to be browsing !/gay - my comments weren’t for their benefit.

            Do you think you’re having more success bringing prejudiced people around in here than I am, or do you think there might be reasons to post here that aren’t for the benefit of the prejudiced?

                reason about this kind of thinking which can’t be done.

                …or worry that

                prejudiced people don’t see or don’t care about that parallel.

        Being so insecure about whether or not you’re perceived as feminine/gay is hella gay. As in, super closeted and desperately trying to deny the truth by any means kind of gay.

            Does insecurity so crippling it stops you from cleaning up after yourself when camping seem well aligned with the stereotypical ultra-masculine archetype to you?

            Of course it’s ultimately all nonsense and stereotypes - but that’s really the point - this arbitrary “that’s gay… and that’s a problem” nonsense just draws lines people fear to cross and limits their freedom for no benefit.

      As with 99% of idiotic things men do, this is because it has been ingrained in them that acting “feminine” (as they perceive it) will lower that sexual status with women. Sometimes this is accurate, and their belief is reinforced.

      The internalized pressures of putting on masks for society helps no one.

        When I was younger (teenager to early 20s) I found vaginas icky. I couldn’t see them in porn or else it would literally make me look away.

        The other day I was watching like a comedy sketch with two straight men in the lockerroom. They are talking sports or whatever, then one of them drop his towel unveiling his genitalia and continue talking, and the other guy is all like trying to look away. Do straight man find penises the same way gay men find vaginas? I wonder how they find their own penis. Its really interesting to me.

          They might view other people’s penises the same way you viewed vaginas, but not their own. I would guess that they find it like looking at another person’s tear ducts. Unappealing because it isn’t theirs, but not something they find that gross on themselves. It’s a mostly neutral part of themselves most of the time. They might take pride in it like gay men, but people generally aren’t as turned on by their own body even if they are attracted to other people with similar bodies. Regardless of if you’re proud of it, your own body just doesn’t hit the same as the bodies of others.

        So you admit that you like the smell of a man’s ball sack on your hands?

        Also not true about the cleanliness part. Ecoli is in your piss. And many more pathogen show up on your underwear between bathroom breaks. So Unless you’re bathing your balls each time and changing your underwear each and every time you hang a piss your unwashed hands are far more dirtier than anyone else who learned how to wash their hands. Also a reason to wash regularly particularly if you’ve been in public areas where other people and other pathogens are left over on flushing knobs and sink knobs and bathroom door knobs of the many other men who left their ecoli all over them. (Ps: this is also how pinworms and conjunctivitis and herpes can get transferred)

        If your roommate ate some ass last night, so did you.

        wash your bathroom regularly. Toilet should be cleaned once a week. Like deeply cleaned. As well as your sink for these same reasons. And at the very least wash your hands each and every time.

    Literally they used studies that had nothing to do with environmentalism then drew conclusions from those studies to support this wild and unsubstantiated claim that “straight men see environmentalism as gay”.

    The studies they quote were around perceived sexuality of personality traits considered socially to be “gender bending”. A label so outdated as to show the age and relevance of such a study.

    This is the academic equivalent of tabloid news.

    If I were rich, I’d definitely find a “study” that proves that single use plastic bags are now ultra gay just to make them switch. It’d probably either confuse them and cause them not to use bags at all or make them switch.
