Some men don't wash their asses because they think it's gay.
They don't wash their asses and think that is not a problem.
Homophobia is literally disgusting.
I'm a straight man that went to a gay bar with a bunch of lesbian friends and got hit on by a very feminine gay man. He like the way I dressed and how well I was put together.
It was such a confidence boost and made me very happy.
One of my coworkers loved to make "i bet so-and-so is gay, look at how he does stuff" joke remarks. I once had the chance to joke back: "Dunno man, you spend a LOT of time thinking about how he's gay, you're always paying attention to him, you're always talking about him, that's pretty gay of you" - That made him stop with those while I'm around, at least.
Second row should be Insecure men today.
Yep. Pathetic worthless dumbfucks. Normal men do not even think about such things.
Meanwhile, me, as straight as a die, is seriously considering getting a "The Gays Can Do Whatever They Want" t-shirt from the Jimquisition store, because that's a great slogan.
Edit: Went to actually buy one, and the postage was more expensive than the shirt. For a t-shirt?! Fuck off!
Lemmy guess, part of the delivery cost was tariffs?
This was from America to Australia, so unlikely.
This still kind of works as a compass meme, which I thought it was for way too long.
"You're not homophobic. You're homochondriac"
I recall reading that in a meme on Lemmy.
Being afraid of looking gay is pretty fucking gay.
Whenever I hear a homophobe in real life start talking about gays, I usually just say "Since I'm not gay, I don't mentally think about what other men do in bed or with their dicks, but you do you". Sounds better in my language, I'm sure you can make it sound more punchy
I'm 99% certain that homophobia stems from dudes being gay/bi but brought up in a "conservative" environment, so there's a clash between what they secretly want and what they perceive as wrong.

Being attracted to women because they are soft and feminine is pretty fucking gay, too
Many straight men don't want to be perceived as gay, while I, a queer man, simply don't want to be perceived.
I'd have so much fun if I could go invisible at will...
Who said that? Show yourself!
Must have been the wind...
Lol, meanwhile the bisexuals don't want to be perceived as gay because it's cutting their dating potential in half. Is that fear, because it's so self serving, worse or better than the homophobic reason of the straights?
How could you possibly be attracted to both genders? That's as crazy as wanting to change your gender or not being sexually attracted to anyone at all. You're clearly just plotting to cheat on me with someone of the opposite sex because you like cheating so much. Nobody would ever be both monogamous AND find people attractive across the gender spectrum.

Everyone thinks i'm gay anyway. Might as well bring my own reusable bag.
Nothing makes me want to suck dick more than seeing someone put a bottle into the correct recycling bin :3

So gay men follow outdated fashion trends? Who knew? Still, destroying nature as a fashion statement is a bit too fashion forward.
I use a reusable bag because I'm not paying an extra 40p every time I go fucking shopping.
That's the gayest thing I heard in a while. I see you talking but all I can hear are massive throating noises.
I'm so jealous of blackmist.
How homosexual of you.
TIL giving a shit makes you gay.
It also makes you more appealing to women but the men don’t know that because Joe Rogan won’t invite a woman on his podcast to talk about it
Appealing to women is gay. They’re soft and flowery not hard and tight like a big strongman

Men we've been scammed, go to the store and look at the completely bland men's clothing options and then go to the women's section and look at all the fun they have with all the different colors and styles, it's really a tragedy.
For real man. And it starts so fucking early. My girl can wear a freaking glitter soaked puffy skirt with a flower shirt and something crocheted with beads over it, accompanied with rainbow nail polish to kindergarten, and the boys are wearing... Blue jeans brown shirt. Maaaybe a shark print somewhere. Man, it is so hard to get pretty clothes for little boys. I've met some moms who were so fed up they literally learned how to sew and started sewing because everything was so bland for their boys. Buying girl clothes is not really an option either, not only because of the bullying from other kids but also because those clothes are so tight it is crazy. If it were just the patterns... It's also the tight leggings, tight jeggings, shirts tailored to the waist. So they sew. For now.
And most retailers really offer such incredibly boring clothes I get depression from just trying to find a tshirt for my husband. You have like 5 colors to choose from and 3 cuts per body half.
Where I live, university age kids now often dress in expensive vintage. Thank god. I've now seen color and fun on guys. Finally. And there is this teenager in the neighborhood who dresses up in black emo core and tights and skirts and paints his face with fake blood and all. I so often want to go to him and just tell him thank you for sticking to your style amidst the conservative neighborhood.
Yeah kids clothes are somehow even worse, although I had to wear a catholic school uniform so plain was absolutely mandatory lol. But yeah, there's really a pretty desolate area, sometimes it feels like they aren't even designing men's clothes anymore, I mean I know there's a lot going on in the world of fashion all the time but that doesn't seem to trickle down at all anymore, or maybe I'm just wildly out of touch which wouldn't surprise me. There haven't been any wild new innovations or trends besides dressing down in general. Note I'm not a huge fan of suits either so I'm not complaining about those going, but nothing replaced them really.
Right, if I want anything with a lot of color I pretty much have to order from Asian brands, I used to like Uniqlo for that but they've since succumbed to the drab and their options are not so great either anymore.
I always admired the people who stuck with the same style or subculture they identified with since they were teenagers, especially the more physically dramatic ones like goth or punk, they found something they loved and made a choice. I miss my giant phat raver diy stovepipe pants sometimes and now I see they are coming back in style haha, but again mostly for women and only men/boys under 20. There is nothing stopping anyone of course.

This for me is the weird cishet paradox. So afraid to look "weak", that they obsess over not looking weak. But you know what looks super weak? Being insecure about being weak. Like, the more you have to prove you're a big tough guy, the less big and tough you seem.
Also, I feel like they've never considered that gay doesn't necessarily mean effeminate. Or even that effeminate doesn't necessarily mean weak/meek.

I just can't even imagine having such a fragile ego and being so unconfident in my own sexuality, that I would be worried about people thinking I'm gay for using reusable bags.
Jesus Christ. These are the people who are making everything on this planet worse for the rest of us.

So... gay people actually have a cultural advantage for once. That's a rare one.
