It's funny to me all the times that I've been considered not manly enough, whether it's wearing my hot pink vans or a pink shirt or tie, allowing my gf or now my daughters to paint my nails, and tons of other examples I've been called gay for too. It made me think, what really makes a man. And going by their own definition, isn't it one sign of a man to not be swayed by the opinion of someone who seeks only to denigrate? So why would I care about their opinion?

It's a tie between licking ice cream and saying something is adorable.

Choosing the urinal next to another man.

Really feels kinda gay, though, especially when the dude next to you squints over.

I'd rather choose the stalls than pee next to another guy. Especially if there's no divider or a low divider that is practically useless

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".

Isn't there a whole meme for this. Fellas, is it gay to __?
