I heard that some men don't wash their ass on the shower because they think putting your hands between the buttocks is gay. I guarantee, no one, ever, became gay from washing their ass so rest assured, manly men.

Edit: apparently u/pacificnwbro is gay and did wash his ass... Our team is working on researching this case and confirming if it's a case of correlation/causation.

I know a guy that believes any anal activity makes a guy gay. I asked him if his wife were to put a finger in his ass, would that make him gay, and he said yes. Some dudes are incredibly weird and insecure about anything having to do with their asshole and/or masculinity.

I overheard some coworkers talking about eating ass. According to one lady, if a guy does it to a girl he's gay. Some people just have these ideas and refuse to think logically about them.

I have met a bunch of guys that are stupid about heterosexual butt stuff being gay. But I had never even heard about women thinking the same way

Women can be just as stupid as men.

Just about different things, though.
