    I got called gay for wearing a kilt in america. What’s funny is I had my girlfriend as well as a female friend with benifits with me at the time. I didn’t even bother responding.

    I’ve heard plenty of guys say that doing any kind of ass play, even with a female is gay.

    All of the comments here are reminding me of how life was 20 years ago and also before I was married with kids.

    I genuinely don’t fucking care how feminine somebody thinks something I’m doing is if I’m comfortable or enjoying myself. I’ll drink pink drinks all day if it fucking tastes good LMLML bro.

    Listening to music.

    I was playing some music on my cassette player at school one day, but it wasn’t rock’n’roll according to the renowned expert that was discussing the situation with me, therefore it was “gay”.

    I grew up in the 90s so just existing would cause people to call you gay.

    Are we talking gay or gay?

    That word gets thrown around a lot without actually meeting homosexual. Most of the time it’s just used as a tasteless replacement for lame.

    I was told I’m gay because I like knitting.
    I mean, yes I’m gay, but not because of that.

    As a kid I was told if you eat scrambled eggs for dinner you are gay. It affected me longer than I care to admit.

    These are all example from decades ago growing up in the 90’s.

    I was called gay for not liking soccer, like it’s gay to not watch men chase a ball in shorts.

    I was called gay for wearing UGG boots as a dude. Like if we even want to accept gay as an insult, I would argue the person bothered by such things as what shoes one is wearing is more fitting of an insult.

    Fun fact. When I had a house mate who was gay, it was very difficult not to use gay as a word for something that wasn’t fun. Like this show is gay. He didn’t mind, but still wanted to stop.

    According to my dad, considering something as ‘lovely’. Even if it’s the exhaust note of a motorcycle.
