Tim Hardaway: "I hate gay people."

Drew - yeah I agree.

On a basic level it's just the introduction of "this guy might wanna bang me" (when a straight guy is around a naked gay dude) that creates a visceral response / revulsion / fear in most straight men.

I mean I'd deal with it and over time, sure I'd adjust, but this is not ignorance this is a basic straight male response to the situation (based on current social convention and context). Yes, I understand rationally gay dude may not be attracted to me, and prolly not necessarily thinking about banging me, but I would still have this visceral reaction in a situation where we are both naked and standing next to one another...

Not talking about it and being judgmental is stupid.

And hey if it doesn't bug you as a straight guy, you're in the minority - no need to lord it over us less socially progressive folk.

Al,

Try to be unattractive. It helps with this apprehension.

Cheers!
