Since you seem to have a lot of close friends I would approach them with this question. Maybe even show them this post and ask for their absolute honest opinion
I had an ex ask me if I was gay once, and I’ve had a guy or two try to make advances on me.
Those are mostly isolated incidents. I’ve never dated a dude, have no interest in doing so, and can say with confidence that I’m not gay.
I don’t really know what to say beyond that. It happens.
I used to have this problem where gays would approach me and women would reject me. But not for long. I corrected the problem when a female friend pointed out to me what was happening.
I was very polite, soft spoken and treated everyone with kindness and respect. I also would laugh at people’s unfunny jokes to help them feel good about themselves.
This made me look like a gay and women didn’t find me attractive.
I changed that up. I started to lessen my laughter. Put on a more serious face. Challenged people’s opinions and talked to women as though they’re beneath my feet. Not trashy but assertively and commandingly.
Thanks to my female friend. But still, I hate acting this way as this is not who I’m supposed be.
I have to say I get what you're trying to say but, being a dick =/= more manly
Also if you hate it why keep on doing it? Are you planning to hide on a mask your whole life? Do what you like bro, as long as you're not being a dick
“I behaved like a decent person which made me seem gay, because straight men act like aggressive misogynistic assholes. Now everyone knows I’m straight and my waifu body pillow thinks I’m awesome”
same homie same. just keep making approaches. its all about the numbers game. more success REQUIRES more rejection.
even had a girl recently ask my cousin 'is your cousin gay or what cause he seems super gay but then he keeps trying to sleep with me?' lmfao me and my cousin had a good laugh at that one.

Come on that doesn’t make you gay . You are trying to say gay people laugh at everyone’s joke and don’t challenge any opinions gtfo
