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.

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago

Kind of suspicious, don't you think?

[–] lugal@lemmy.world 36 points 1 year ago

Easy solution: just say "no homo" all the time. "Do you need a bag?" – "No, I brought my own but no homo." – "What ever."

[–] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 36 points 1 year ago (8 children)

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.

[–] FishFace@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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 :)

[–] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (10 children)

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.

Fellas, is it gay to use a bag for my shopping

[–] AstridWipenaugh@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Only when you store the bags in your ass and pull them out in front of the cashier.

[–] Aleric@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

If that's wrong, I don't want to be right.

[–] luluApples@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

But there's lots of bags tied together so it's like a magician pulling a string of handkerchiefs out

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

It's not gay if it's your own ass, it's only gay if you're using your buddies Kleenex box.

Somehow being a nice person that care for others is gay.

[–] dipshit@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Good times.. something something.. men with erections.

[–] MTK@lemmy.world 27 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I hate it when I pull out my reusable bag and suddenly get gangbanged by 20 gay guys.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I can't put a single glass bottle in the recycling without sucking at least three cocks. It takes up so much time.

Research shows that people afraid of being perceived as being gay are morons

[–] SCB@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

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.

Some men don't clean their ass because they don't want to be perceived as gay.

[–] snooggums@kbin.social 13 points 1 year ago

It bothers me that it isn't just an internet meme.

[–] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

"That's why I don't jerk off. Jerking off requires touching a man's dick and touching dick is gay." - these people probably.

The only thing gayer than having hot sex with other men is not doing the things you enjoy or making your own life more difficult to stop the gay goblin in your brain from calling you a gay.

Yeah, I remember being worried I would be perceived as gay.

I was 13 and it was the 7th grade.

Ah, to be young again...

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Dang these gay people must be pretty great if any pro-social behavior gets you mistaken for one

[–] Smoogs@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (8 children)

It gets stupider.some men refuse to wash their hands after pissing. And they are the gender that do have to handle their genitals while doing so. Let that one sink in.

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.

I'm apparently gay af.

[–] Damaskox@kbin.social 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm curious about the train of thought here.
How do you get from the thought of preserving nature to being gay?

Does someone or something say lies to these folks?

[–] Chriswild@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I thought lots of insecure men don't even wash their ass because it's gay

does putin care about the environment

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sure does! That's why he keeps sending people out to become fertilizer.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Just an fyi people are really shitty fertilizer, after packed full of shit that isn't particularly great.

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 year ago

There is nothing more manly than gay sex.

So I guess those non-green pussies want you to know they aren't macho enough to care about the environment.

[–] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 year ago

I'm not sure if this is from the tooker jerbs episode of South Park or the bottled water thing from Heathers

But it does show propaganda is effective and harmful.

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

that has to be a joke. What's the context ? why reusable bags ? does that work for anything refusable, such as shoes ? do absolutely hetero men go around bare soles ? do real men throw out their back pack after a hike ? does having a wife make me gay ?

[–] shifted_drifter@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I think it's more about the attitude of "being environmentally conscious is a soft thing and MEN are HARD so fuck the environment because my sense of self has been silently murdered and replaced with mainstream consumerist media's idea of what men think they want to be according to a focus group."

I made a bag from some old jeans that didn't survive my bike lay down, it's manly as hell to reuse, repurpose, and recycle

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

the hardest part of not being an absolute slob is telling your parents you're gay?

Guys really will say anything to be little filth piggies.

[–] blazera@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Toxic masculinity.

[–] Umechan@reddthat.com 6 points 1 year ago

Yes, it's gay to be concerned about what kind of world you're leaving to your children and grandchildren. /s

[–] Leviathan@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago
[–] CheesyGordita@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Ironically the people who worry so much about being perceived as gay and use it as a slur… mostly closeted homosexuals.

[–] Whelks_chance@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Citation needed on "mostly" there. As a teenager I knew loads of dickheads who didn't want to be labelled as gay, and they've all grown up to be well adjusted hetro dads. Teenaged boys are just twats.

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 9 points 1 year ago

Tbf all teenagers are twats, comes with the territory

Meanwhile, I use my backpack to go shopping and last week, I went back to Aldi because I bought 3 soy milks but they only charged me 2 and apologized to the cashier for causing confusion. I'm not an alpha male, I guess.
