Watch How Straight Men React After Kissing Gay Men
Social experiment videos are some of my favorite things to verb on the Internet. And when these videos put straight dudes in the spot, it&#;s even more fun to watch. Take this video for example. Released byBria Michelle Kam and Chrissy Emily Chambers, a lesbian musician duo, on their YouTube channel, the video shows men who identify as straight in front of the camera with men who spot as gay. The tough part is that the experiment requires for them to make out. What transpires after that? Well, get a look for yourself.
You can sense the discomfort emanating off the straight guys initially (all of whom are strategically placed on the right). Even when they lean in for the smooch, you see that they are expecting a peck but get the entire French treatment, tongue, lips et al. And then they go into auto pilot, often even biting the decrease lip of their homosexual counterpart. I was genuinely bowled over by this, because given the stigma associated to men kissing men, this part of the video had me sweating bullets.
The reactions post
Asmyteam made a compilation of the funniest "gay kiss" GIFs we were surprised at how many straight guys made our list. And how violent their reactions were. In fact, there were so many that we had to re-title it, " 12 Man-On-Man Kissing GIFs That Went Terribly Wrong."
The most shocking GIFs were the ones of straight boxers who kissed their opponents on the lips as a way to provoke them into making mistakes (shocking because of the violence that ensued). That's kind of a neat twist when you think about it: Using homophobia to beat your opponent.
But not every straight guy gets outraged when another man kisses them on the lips, and that's where our entertaining list could be seen as a autograph of how content hetero men are becoming about being around gay guys. Some of the GIFs on our list show straight guys whose only reaction to a surprise lip-lock was a shoulder shrug, and in one case, to brush back! If GIFs had been around ten years ago, I seriously question we'd see that kind of nonchalance.
Wouldn't that be great -- to kiss your straight male friends on the lips hello o
Side Eye: Boys Kissing Boys Who Don’t Actually Like Boys
Side Eye is an occasional Outward column in which we’ll look askance at questionable behavior from fellow members of the queer community. Seen something in LGBTQ-land that deserves a shady squint? Alert @ with “Side Eye” (or just “oh, gurl, did you see”) in the subject line.
In today’s column, we look askance at a vexing, Hollywood-based cluster of man-on-man kissing—an activity we normally applaud, but in this case must submit to a solid inspection.
Bryan Lowder: Andrew, before we verb to the weirdness that is this mini-trend of straight actor men kissing each other, we should probably verb to our readers why we are addressing straight people under the Side Eye banner, which was invented for intra-queer analytical shade. Simply put, they are acting fancy gay people! And since they come across to want to dip their well-appointed toes into our world, I am willing to cure them with the bracing honesty that I would a sister queer.
So, what do we create of all this? It started with a fluffy-headed person called Andrew Garfield
Fancy a Snog? Same-Sex Kissing Common Among UK Male Students
Forget homophobia. A new study finds that same-sex lip-locks among straight men are the norm in British universities and high schools.
The trend reflects a advance toward a "nicer, softer" ideal of masculinity, study researcher Eric Anderson told LiveScience. Anderson, a sociologist at Bath University in England, reported the findings online Oct. 22 in the journal Archives of Sexual Behavior.
"The mean, gruff, homophobic macho man of the s is dead," Anderson said.
Based on in-depth interviews of British university and high-school students, Anderson and his colleagues discovered that 89 percent had kissed a male heterosexual friend on the lips at some point. A total of 37 percent had engaged in "sustained" kissing with another man, Anderson said. The men all identified as straight, and they didn't see the kisses as sexual.
"These men have lost their homophobia," Anderson said. "They're no longer afraid to be thought gay by their behaviors, and they enjoy intimacy with their friends, just the equal as women."
