Lads is it gay to not want to die by climate change?

You either die taking the heat, or live long enough to see yourself taking the meat.

I love my reusable shopping bags and I've only sucked like 2 dicks

[–] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (2 children)

You get a new bag every time you suck a dick. It's like a prize.

So get sucking if you love reusable shopping bags!

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Try not to get any reusable shopping bags on your way through the parking lot!

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

But the bags are reusable. Only requires 1 gay sex act per lifetime.

[–] meliaesc@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

But I have more than one bag worth of shopping...

Honestly who gives a shit if someone thinks you're gay?

Especially when it's because of something fucking stupid.

I think what this means is that a lot of men out there secretly fear being gay more than anything else.

A few years ago some redneck moron screamed at me from his enormous diesel truck "f*****" when I was walking with the girl I was boning at the time. What I translated it to was "you look physically fit and it angers me that I look much worse than you, especially because I wish I could sleep with a woman who looks like that." It actually was kind of flattering even though they wanted to hurt me.

Exactly. As a gay dude, I'm afraid of being perceived as gay because of violent homophobes. Other guys are afraid of being perceived as gay because they are homophobic. We are not the same.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I hope you realize I'm saying it's sad and pointless for straight dudes to care about this

[–] Kase@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Yee, just agreeing with you. Sorry if it doesn't make sense, I'm super tired lmao.

Can confirm as a pervert whose gone to "adult video stores," a LOT of the people who are loudly and violently anti-gay in public can be found lurking in the dark halls of the booths.

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 years ago

i agree, who cares. unfortunately some people do, and do a hatecrime because of it.

I just went shopping with my wife to Anthropologie and I picked up a shawl for myself because it's cold as fuck in Wyoming (most years) and that shawl is cozy/comfy as fuck. If that makes me gay, then at least I'll be warm and gay.

[–] violetraven@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

So imagine that, but with clothes/PJs/etc. Like I never knew things could feel so cozy. You know that stereotypical Hallmark, dog-in-front-of-the-fireplace-in-silk-pajamas? This is obtainable for all of us.

It’s not being warm that makes you gay, it’s buying a shawl from Anthropologie.

Real men wear scarves from K-Mart.

There is no greater show of dominance than penetrating another man's rectum. All true alphas know this. Betas fear they'll like it.

Okay this is the perfect post for me to share my hypothesis that Elon Musk is an asshole, but is doing it in such a way that he panders to people that listen to Joe Rogan so they stop thinking electric vehicles are just for women and gays.

Remember how brutal society was to male Prius owners for so long?

Again, he's most definitely a real asshole, but some of his dialouge seems way out of left field, almost like a caricature of a generic dude bro

[–] moon@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago

Another Elon must be playing 4d chess comment. It's not that his PR team tricked nerds and later popular culture into thinking he's a revolutionary Iron Man smart boy, it's that he's playing a character. It's satire.

[–] violetraven@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 years ago

Sounds plausible, but I feel like it's just him, especially considering his narcissistic tendencies toward companies he's owned and had to have the title of founder as if he made those widgets himself

I think this may be a result of not wanting to lose some male privilege. Caring about others in a passive way that isn't aggressive or violent is seen as feminine, so they would be lowering their social status. It's ridiculous that that could be the case. We really need to destruct gender-based privilege.

[–] bmsok@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago (2 children)

These are the same types of dudes who don't wash their own buttholes in the shower because they think it's gay.

[–] lobut@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Please tell me you made that up.

[–] bmsok@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago

Sorry you had to find out this way. Or find out at all.

[–] WorkIsSlow@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

I don't wash my butthole because it's dirty. I don't want to touch that thing.

It's too late for me to start.

Edit: I do wash my butthole. Don't worry about me too much.

[–] snooggums@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

It's never too late!

Nice grocery purse bro

[–] SeabassDan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Was there a noticeable difference between straight men and gay men back then in how they dressed?

[–] Nudding@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

No, because being Gay would probably get you hanged.

[–] Compactor9679@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Green = gay
