Watching Super Bowl Can Make You Gay

[Joemailman]

For the record, I started this read because I thought the story about a guy afraid his son will become gay because he saw the halftime show was funny. Of course, it's possible the guy was just joking too. Lighten up everybody.

This crap kills me. WTF makes ANYBODY think a gay guy would be "staring" at anyone else all the time?? If you're a heterosexual male, do you "stare" at your female co-workers ina way that makes them so uneasy they'll complain? I bet not. Do you run around at work and try to bed every woman there, even the ones that are not interested in you? Do you harrass them and stare and bother them? I doubt it. Hell, we had this whole conversation ten years ago about female reporters in the lockerroom. Now it's fairly common practice (in Detroit we have female reporters covering the Pistons, Wolverines, and Spartans beats) and nobody's too bothered by those nasty women checking out the guys. People do their jobs.

Dang Fritz, you had me on at least half those questions!
When The Odds wrote their song 'Heterosexual Man' I thought they were talking about me!

I wanna make every woman I see
I wanna make every woman I see
Do you know what's the matter with me?
I'm a heterosexual man
just a heterosexual man

If watching the Prince halftime show can make your son gay, then there's something he wasn't telling you in the first place...

Here's the only test you need to determine gayness

One by one - here we go:

Only if they catch me doing it.

I bet not. You loose the bet

Do you run around at work and try to bed every woman there, even the ones that are not interested in you?

Repeatedly. It's my job as a man to "spread the seed" I even go to other peoples work for the same purpose.

Do you harrass them and stare and bother them? I doubt it.

No harrassment but I do like to look, again - repeatedly.

Hell, we had this whole conversation ten years ago about female reporters in the lockerroom. Now it's fairly common practice (in Detroit we have female reporters covering the Pistons, Wolverines, and Spartans beats) and nobody's too bothered by those nasty women checking out the guys.

That is slightly different than having a homo teammate. A hetero guy who is self confident would actually encourage women to check them out.

Here's the deal - guys are guys regardless if they are gay or not.

What I mean by that is that we all know that men put out. You cannot argue that. We all know that the instinctual drive for all men is to put their manhood into anything they personally find even remotely attractive (and depending on their level of drunkenness - even the unattractive). Nature of the beast. It's part of being an animal.

Here's a scenario to ponder:

A hetero man has a sex change operation. Now he gets to use the womens shower at the gym with all the other women. He's still hetero, he's looking at every woman in his daily life and now that he can see them naked, his drooling is over the top. If the other women in that shower do not know that he is a hetero man who had a sex change operation, they probably are indifferent to it. But once that knowledge gets out (coming out of the closet) and into the heads of the women using the same shower this is what happens:

1. There will be someone who feels violated and/or dirty as a result of unkowingly showering with a man (sex change or not)
2. The usage of the aforementioned shower will decline - especially when that "sex change man" person is at the gym.

I could go on - but there would be a level of "uncomfortable-ness" maybe not from all the women, but certainly from many.

I'm a self confident guy. My ladyfriends have repeatedly told me how their male "gay friends" find me attractive. Now if I suddenly found out that one of my teammates that I play sports with is gay and has been for some time, I would certainly be uncomfortable with that. I do not believe it's too radical of a concept to understand.

Think about it.
