Can gays expect an increasing number of partners compared to women? (szmer.info)

To be clear, I want to mention right away that I’m not a homophobe; I’m a filo-homo person. Gays shouldn’t be condemned. Everyone should be tolerant and love one another. Spread love…

»Don't you guys think that more and more diudes are starting to look like gays and generally tolerate homosexual behavior in themselves and experiment? Because I’m hearing more and more often that a man chose men over women, or that guys did something together while drunk... How much is this phenomenon increasing? «

Do you think a certain steady trend is continuing? More and more people are discussing topics related to homosexuality.

I’ll finish the rest of my argument in the comments, because a lot of time has been spent on pleasantries. Not everyone wants to read everything. »WARMING: This discussion is intended for emotionally mature individuals.

I'm struggling to make the slightest sense of this weird, incoherent rant. What are you trying to accomplish? What kind of answers are you expecting?

This whole thing reeks of the ramblings of an AI-fueled bot.

I don’t think there’s much to see here. People are more comfortable expressing themselves as society becomes more accepting.

What is: look like gay. It's not just about clothing, but men in pink??? Pink on male is so popular. You know, there are certain typical clothing elements—rainbows, etc. There’s more and more strange expression in men.

There’s increasing recognition of ASD, is strongly associated with being gay in scientific discourse…

In some charts from one study, there’s also a noticeable trend among men. This is likely due to the common lie where a bisexual identifies as straight, or a gay man says he’s bi or straight. For peace of mind, for example. For women, being a lesbian carries fewer social consequences. It's a presumed statistical effect. I’ve also learned from various forums that many men who identify as heterosexual have received oral sex from a gay friend. I know there are men who enjoy sex with another man but don’t like cuddling with them. Once, a friend in class—an openly gay guy—almost laid on top of me. My high school athlete friends often touched each other and made comments. It seemed like just slapping and grabbing, but you know. Once they even started playing with each other’s balls. In fact, I’ve been touched the most in my life by other guys, usually through slapping or fighting- by the accident. Men sometimes like to pretend to be gay for laughs, for example, dancing together or pretending to flirt. On the other hand—hungry men think of bread.

I definitely see more twinks nowadays and I'm all for it being bi myself. I think I get what you mean by guys tolerating it more. But I thinks it's less more guys are becoming gay and more the fact that it's more accepted now here in the states at least.
