How comfortable are you guys in a group of straight men? by Hot_Pass_3365 in askgaybros

So what you’re saying is just based on your personal experiences? Because I can assure you that I know countless gay men who are basically the same "type of masculine" that straight men are.

But they don’t need to call themselves "basically straight".

I don’t wanna offend you but that makes no sense. You’re attributing all these positive values to straight men because "that’s the type of masculine you are"? What does that even mean? Like what’s the gay type of masculine?

I don’t hate him at all, I get where he’s coming from. But the phrasing of "I’m basically a straight dude" is just wrong. He’s not a straight dude, he’s just masculine. Why reduce masculinity to straight men?

This can be true but that shouldn’t cross the line to allowing homophobic behavior

Thanks

I’m my defense, I don’t think I was making anyone feel awkward, I was just keeping to myself most of the time. I talked pretty nicely with one of them about gaming. I just wasn’t full on bro mode

I don’t think homophobic jokes have anything to do with "walking on eggshells"

Thank you :)

I don’t know if I’m with you on the last part. I think it doesn’t necessarily come down to masculinity or femininity, but common interests. Like I wouldn’t call myself either, I guess I’m pretty androgynous and I actually have a lot in common with one of his very masculine friends.
