Welcome to /c/Gay - Your LGBTQ+ Haven

We're more than just a community; we're your haven for celebrating LGBTQ+ culture and connecting with like-minded individuals.

Community Rules:

~ 1. No bigotry. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 4. Keep it LGBTQ+ related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love posts but 3-4 in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

"That's why I don't jerk off. Jerking off requires touching a man's dick and touching dick is gay." - these people probably.

When I was younger (teenager to early 20s) I found vaginas icky. I couldn't see them in porn or else it would literally make me look away.

The other day I was watching like a comedy sketch with two straight men in the lockerroom. They are talking sports or whatever, then one of them drop his towel unveiling his genitalia and continue talking, and the other guy is all like trying to look away. Do straight man find penises the same way gay men find vaginas? I wonder how they find their own penis. Its really interesting to me.

They might view other people's penises the same way you viewed vaginas, but not their own. I would guess that they find it like looking at another person's tear ducts. Unappealing because it isn't theirs, but not something they find that gross on themselves. It's a mostly neutral part of themselves most of the time. They might take pride in it like gay men, but people generally aren't as turned on by their own body even if they are attracted to other people with similar bodies. Regardless of if you're proud of it, your own body just doesn't hit the same as the bodies of others.
