I would recommend that anyone concerned with privacy either use a burner account or not answer these kinds of questions.

While statistically I'm sure there are many straight men here, doxxing and other forms of identification are enabled by combining different breadcrumbs of information.

Use chapstick

Read a book in public

Not go to gym

Play certain more "feminine" games

Those off the top of my head. I live in a nation of backwards idiots, so there for sure are more

Use chapstick

How I get around that: Wait until my girl uses hers, then kiss her.

It's a bit of a running meme between us.

Use chapstick

My first exposure to Big Bang Theory was the scene where they made fun of one of their friends for "wearing lip gloss" and refusing to call it chapstick. It was so weird and toxic and I assumed it was a gay panic joke before finding out it was the nerd show I was avoiding. Fucking terrible show.

What's the gayest thing you've been told you can't do because it's weird?

Handing out homemade candy in one of my upper level college courses.

As a fellow crafty, cooking, mostly straight dude, I'm sorry to hear people calling your generosity and thoughtfulness "gay."

Choosing the urinal next to another man.

Really feels kinda gay, though, especially when the dude next to you squints over.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

This isnt even a gay thing, this is a social and privacy/personal space issue. Don't pick stalls that are far apart because "it's gay," do it because other people might feel uncomfortable being near other human beings period (might get stabbed or robbed, might get harassed, or might just have extreme social anxiety - the most likely) while their privates are exposed and they're in the middle of something.

Unless there are huge dividers between each one. Then it doesnt matter as much.

I'd rather choose the stalls than pee next to another guy. Especially if there's no divider or a low divider that is practically useless

Same. It’s not even a sexual thing, I just have a shy bladder and physically cannot make myself go if I can feel someone else’s presence nearby, even if it’s not a stranger.

Sucking my best friend’s dick. I’m sorry, but if my friend is having a bad day, giving him a bro-job is not gay.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 13 hours ago (3 children)

Not judging, but that is definitely gay.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 13 hours ago

Sounds like a happy experience all round.

Hugging friends. Or any sort of physical contact that isn't with a woman.

Washing your asshole... Seriously dudes, wash it anyway

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 hours ago

And up to the first knuckle, you don't have to jam soap up there but wash your nasty ass if you expect anyone to not gag when they get near your crotch.

Some of yall are nasty.
