I was reading the "why aren't all women gay" post...and it reminded me of a conversation I had with a friend of mine. She asked me: "Why are all guys homophobic".
I responded with something like:
"What do you mean WHY!?!
Isn't it obvious....duh!?!
It's because...
...
...
well....
think of it this way....uhm.....
if you were.....
fresia me...why are we homophobic?"
I'm in NO WAY claiming to be above it, but it struck me as definitively irrational. The conversation lead to the idea of homophobia being caused by men not being comfortable with their sexuality...which I countered with the argument: "then why do some women who are so comfortable with their sexuality conveniently switch their sexual orientation when given a substantial amount of alcohol".
That argument was countered with "a) for free drinks, 2) because guys like lesbians...D) and HOW can guys be homophobic AND love lesbians?!?!?!". :club:
I know for me...I don't mind talking to a gay dude. I have before...I don't CURRENTLY have any gay friends, but that's because I don't go out LOOKING for gay friends. But there are things that women do that I wont do because it's considered gay. Like women share beds all the time...but I'd sooner sleep on the floor than share a bed with another guy. Women can say another girl is pretty like "oh my god she's GORGEOUS!", but I typically wouldn't compliment another guys looks.
Well...that's what I ask you ALL?!?! Why are us guys homophobic?!
P.S. to any straight guy who claims to not be homophobic...BULLSHIT
