Yes, it's been going on throughout human history. Dudes like to **** each other. Doesn't make them gay.

Lol I disagree... If a guy is truly straight, he will not have sex with another man... If he can't get any, he will just masturbate.

Maybe that's what you observe but it's not true based on human history. You can call them "not straight" but I don't think you can speak for them.

I don’t agree with that. I think in prison it’s a form of dominance, much like a male dog at a dog park will hump other male dogs, to establish dominance.

That's a lot of it. Also, as we were told in an in-service, Black and Hispanic men cannot be homosexual, they're just men who have sex with other men.

The in-service was addressing our gay male, or not gay male, student population. The White gays were, however, in fact homosexual.

I actually have one friend who IS homophobic and yet even he goes to dinner or shopping with me...and movies.


I have NEVER ever heard of this until now!


...leave it to a woman to tell us men how we think or feel!
I haven't heard of this either I think it's bologna. The only people that are this afraid of being marked as gay are likely harboring some latent homosexual or bisexual tendencies.

I am a gay guy I have straight male friends they've hugged me we go out to dinner sometimes. So forth.

I even think the people who preface something by saying no homo have their mind there. Anytime I hear that I always respond with yes homo.

That is literally the dumbest thing I've ever heard on this subject.

I have seen some men hesitate about engaging in one-on-one activities with new male acquaintances, but this has hardly impacted their ability to make male friends.

It may well be but it is the narrative.
