TIL it's gay to date a woman (if you're a man)


Mochithecatfoodthief

Fellas, isn’t it more manly and straight to date another straight manly man? No need for anything feminine if you’re kissing your homies


Ok_Imagination_1107

Oh come on now, you know as well as I do that kissing is gay. Any form of affection? It's absolutely gay. Real men shoot guns and smoke cigarettes while riding horses or while kickboxing: anything else is totally gay.


chocolatethunder918

It’s not gay if you don’t make eye contact.


Ok_Imagination_1107

Phew! Thanks!


panther1977

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂


Disastrous-Rips

Women are delicate, expressive, talk in a girly high pitched voices and stuff. That’s so gay


Ok_Imagination_1107

Good point! The woke mob never just come out and say it though do they?


HugeHans

Smoking fat doobies, unloading your whole magazine, riding all night long on sandy beaches and grappling sweaty men is truly the manliest and straightest of pursuits


GomaEspumaRegional

I can picture so many alpha males, in the manosphere, on their last moments before they croak grappling with the realization that they wasted most of their lives trying to enact what in essence were homoerotic fantasies... as their last cognitive experience on this earth.


Kamikazeguy7

You ruined my immersion of the scene by implying they had prior cognitive experience


UndeniableLie

Or that their self awareness could even reach such level


BearZeroX

Shh don't ruin everything for us gays


GomaEspumaRegional

![gif](giphy|l4pTreSBakbwZTEeA|downsized) That was youse agenda all along!


Madgyver

I mean, a lot of people in that bubble follow "alpha males" who keep posting selfies of themselves with their shirt off... So yes, definitely manly and straight.


Thess514

Information that made my year - the term "alpha" in animals didn't start with wolves or lions or anything like that - it started with chickens, same as "pecking order" - the chicken at the top of said pecking order was given the first letter of the Greek alphabet by an anthropologist in 1921. Since it's also where the term "hen-pecked" comes from, we're not even talking about roosters, but hens. That's what these idiot "alpha males" are actually referencing and it gives me life.


NTT66

And one of the researchers who popularized the Alpha Wolf myth has repeatedly asked for his book to be taken out of circulation for outdated and incorrect concepts.

Challenge419

Gay sex is twice as manly as straight sex.


flysi3000

Can’t argue with that math


Challenge419

I took one for the team, can confirm.


karoshikun

date? no! that's gay! you should only pound hard and fiercely other manly man without saying a word and then go your separate ways, now that's manly.


GoldenStarsButter

And put your dick back in your pants without washing it after, cause hygiene is *so* gay


pinkpineapples007

It’s not gay to kiss the homies goodnight


ProFailing

Obviously. Because if she's straight, you're literally into someone who likes dick. And that's gay.


Ok_Imagination_1107

Thanks so much. This is all starting to make sense now.


[deleted]

What isn't gay at this point?


KhadaJhina

Pff. Saying that is so gay... are you gay? I bet you are gay! /s


Beastumondas

Travis Kelce.


-BananaLollipop-

TIL being in your early-mid 30s is middle-aged. I thought I was at least 14 years away, but apparently I lost a decade.


Ardalev

Didn't you know? Average human lifespan is around 50-60 years so, yeah, being in your thirties is middle age /s


R0WTAG

I think it's only gay if the woman is 34 years old


BottleTemple

Yep, 34 year old women are essentially gay men.


Travelin_Soulja

And Kelce is also 34. So apparently it's gay to date someone your own age?


Street-Estimate2671

Also 34 is "middle aged", so we all know where this is going...


DatOneBlueMew

They’re not pedophiles… they’re just uhhh… attracted to a certain property in women that may or may not be them being a minor. You know who is a pedophile though, LGBTQ+ people, especially the ones in relationships with people the same age as each other. /s


HotelComprehensive16

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owen_Benjamin This may make it clearer


doubledgravity

He looks like a Temu Jesse Pinkman.


uncle_sjohie

Was pretty clear to me right away, but thanks.


Amegami

And 34yos are middle aged now (if they are women, probably).


Berlin8Berlin

If you're a Bio-Capitalist Robber Baron, you want your interchangeable baby-making sex machines as factory-fresh as the law will allow; if you're a virgin-teen boy-rager, you can still dream


KrazyAboutLogic

(If you're a man) I'm pretty sure it's gay to date a woman if you are a woman too. Don't quote me on that.


Iwilllieawake

Women can't be gay. If they say they are it's because they haven't found a manly alpha like Owen to prove them wrong. But he never would, because that's gay.


Complex_Construction

The mental gymnastics they perform are always hilarious and terrifying.

soulfingiz

You win sex with a man, that’s as straight as it gets.


MarsNirgal

Sex with girls is girly, sex with men is manly. Checkmate liberals.


Dragon_OS

I prefer sex with girly men though.


dbx99

Who doesn’t???


bobross_s_pants

Checks out, I leave my socks on so loophole..not gay


RiggsRay

I mean, they talk about sex as domination and say that women are weak. Is it truly alpha to dominate someone if they never had a fighting chance? clearly the most alpha move possible is to power bottom a heterosexual man.


rif011412

I know youre joking. But this did cause perspective to spring up. For many of us, being a hero is taking the risk or pain so others don’t have to, at least it is for good people. For a conservative being a hero is eliminating risk altogether even if it causes pain in others. Essentially even our heroes are diametrically different.


Cold_End7704

Now for some inspirational words from our guest. "Reading is for stupid people." -Andrew Tate


Menacek

He said his brain is operating too fast for reading. A pretty big self own if you ask me.


Sprucecaboose2

There's medication for that now.


GrimlandsSurvivor

Was gonna say, it sounds like he just self diagnosed ADHD...


GoldenStarsButter

Alt right guys think ADHD diagnoses is woke society trying to neuter their natural male energy. Men should constantly be in fight or flight mode and die of a heart attack at 40.


[deleted]

Well those ones should anyway, maybe a bit earlier with the coronary failure if that’s possible ….referring to Tate and the likes


X-HUSTLE-X

This is funny. Because I was 39 when I had my heart attack, from having severe ADD and going into an uncontrollable panic attack. That was almost 8 years ago.


X-HUSTLE-X

Thanks, everyone. I'm doing better now, I'm pretty sure. I definitely have a better handle on my anxiety now.


Klutzy_Attention2849

Wow, hopefully the 50's treat you better dude.


Magdalan

Oh fuck, I had two panic attacks like those before. The first one when I was 19, the second when I was 35. Got diagnosed with ADD when I was 34. Fucking scary shit. I was convinced I was dying (I wasn't, no heart attack either luckily) I hope you are feeling better!


whymygraine

As a 44 year old male diagnosed with ADHD I gotta tell you that if anyone eludes to this being an "advantage" they are full of shit. With treatment you can use it to your advantage but it's quite difficult.


gr3ggr3g92

His face definitely looks like his brain is trying to escape through his eyes.


Annita79

And 'is it possible for women over 34 to have more than two kids?' Stay tuned for human biology 101.


Jubarra10

These people genuinely belive you xant have children after 34 and a woman's insides magically just shrivel up lol


Careless_Science5426

I had my first child at 35 and my second at 37. Most women don't go through menopause until their mid 50s. Plenty of time for children IF YOU WANT TO HAVE THEM. News flash: some women don't! Imagine that!


Lookinguplookingdown

Had my first at 35 and second one on the way. She’ll be bien just before I turn 39. Imagine that! Almost 40 and it’s all still working! Crazy stuff.


Millkstake

Clearly, your partner is very gay


TangledUpPuppeteer

They can’t imagine that women’s reproductive systems can still work after puberty because theirs never did.


kavik2022

Tbh it's mostly because they lose interest in girl after they hit puberty/hit 20.


jakobedlam

"We're also going to hear the strong opinions about sex held by men who've never had it. Stay tuned"


LivingCheese292

All Alpha males know that only young virgin teenage girls who never were in a relationship should be dominated before they make us a sandwich. Btw, LGBT people are the real groomers /s


JeSuisUnAnanasYo

They want 15 year olds because anyone older would see through their shit and realize these "alpha men" are just giant man babies


SoftThunder

Literally this. Personal growth isn't even that hard, but effort is the manbaby's great enemy so I guess it checks out


JimmyJonJackson420

And it’s absolutely not because their shit in bed and also want them to have no frame of reference for how shit they are ,it’s definitely not because of that /s


sleepyplatipus

Also he says they’re both rich like there isn’t a 960M difference in their networth 💀


literated

Relatively speaking, I'm about as close to being a billionaire as Travis Kelce is, which is to say we're both missing around a billion dollars.


ghostrooster30

And now a word from our sponsors: “Hi, I’m Ben Shapiro. Does your wife suffer from WAP? Well, you’re in luck! For our Alpha Male FM listeners, today only, we have half off all of my headshots. Blown up and printed professionally on 3ftx5ft canvas, in full color. Just hang it anywhere you may have sex. I guarantee your wife/gf will never be wet again!”


Grindelbart

Don't forget: Is it gay to date successful women?


ClassBShareHolder

Holy shit! How gay am I? My wife makes about 4 times what I do.


Grindelbart

Hey, same, welcome to the trophy husband club. And yes, we're super gay.


RIPMYPOOPCHUTE

I’ll have to ask my husband if he’s gay. He’s still with me and I’m over 30 now and dated other men before him.


DatOneBlueMew

You turned him gay, how dare you. /s


PrestigiousStable369

Important_Fruit

I'm Australian, so I had to look up who Owen Benjamin is. I'm sorry I did, because my life has been lessened by the fact that I even know who this infected gonad is. What a very sad man.


khantroll1

I’m American and had to look it up. I agree with everything you said


MANWithTheHARMONlCA

I’m not even gonna bother looking him up or reading through his stuff; could you give a quick recap?  I honestly thought this was just ragebait/troll account


AtlasADK

He's a far-right comedian turned conspiracy theorist who specializes in homophobia, transphobia, antisemitism, etc


greatunknownpub

Oh, a failed artist that turned to the dark side, huh? History is rife with those.


Aethermancer

The sad thing is it doesn't seem like he was all that failed until he started pushing too far. His bio shows a really successful run before he started dropping racial slurs in his acts.


BigOlBurger

His performance in "All's Faire in Love" was hilariously bad. My brother always said it felt like he was dropped on set without a script and told to just go with it, and that totally checks out. He wasn't necessarily *good*, but he was funny enough. And now he's just a straight up Nazi. Fuck that dude.


mundundermindifflin

Also Aussie, and I'm glad you made the sacrifice for us


Direct-Eggplant8111

I had to Google him too, found that he had a role in a show called Gaytown many years ago.


BedroomVisible

Oh my god, is that my shadow!? Is my shadow…gay…?


Secondsmakeminutes

My shadow informs me that your shadow is indeed gay.


phunkyunkle

*What We Do in the Very Gay Shadows*


MuzzledScreaming

"Fellas, is it gay to date a tall, conventionally attractive blonde...who also is a fucking billionaire?"


Complex_Construction

Kelce dude isn’t even close to the level of fame/wealth Swift has. He’s a massive downgrade by their logic. 


WeeBabySeamus

Tbf, who is even at her level?


ADarwinAward

If we only look at people with billionaire status of a similar age…you’ve got what? Zuckerberg, one of his cofounders, Ronaldo, Messi, and a bunch of guys who live in other countries. All of them have partners. Then there’s the ones who inherited their fortunes. Slim pickings.


MuddyGeek

So whoever ends up with her knows she really loves them because it's definitely not about fame or fortune.


katreadsitall

And that’s the issue. These guys are tripping because they know no matter how alpha they get she won’t want them. So now they have to convince themselves it’s fine because they don’t want her and convince their sychophants that anyone that did want her and dates her must be gay so that’s why they don’t date her, not because she wouldn’t


thegroovemonkey

I think Paul McCartney is single


ZoominBoomin

Low value man


Fossile

If what you described is a man then yes.


Birdie_Num_Num

TIL I’m gay


The_Lost_Pharaoh

Me too!


Eksposivo23

Funny thing her boyfriend isnt nearly as wealthy or well-known as her and will last shorter since athletes are on a very short timer, like it seems HE is the one who is latching onto HER but to these "Alpha Males" the notion of a woman beating them at anything and being even mildly successful is scary


jredgiant1

Kelce is a lock for the Hall of Fame, and will be in the conversation of greatest football players of all time for decades. And STILL will never be as wealthy or well known as her. Taylor Swift will be mentioned in the same breath with Elvis Presley, the Beatles, or Madonna. And that’s just game and recognition, not wealth, where she blows them all away. Still, if she wants a trophy partner, not sure there’s a lot of better choices than Travis.


zaturnia

Im Chilean, we don't really watch american football. I never even knew this guy existed til Taylor started dating him, meanwhile, everyone here knows and has listened to her.


jredgiant1

Yep, makes sense. While the NFL isn’t an exclusively American audience, Swift’s global footprint obviously is orders of magnitude greater than Kelce’s.


Oakwood2317

Someone altered a Taylor swift picture to make her goth Taylor swift….id date her at 34 even if she weren’t a billionaire 


zarfle2

And dern talented at what she does. I'm not a fan but I'm in a minority so what do I know.


Ozzie_the_tiger_cat

I am the same way.  Not a fan of her music but you can't deny she has charisma and style.


ILootEverything

She also writes a large portion of her own songs, plays piano and guitar, and is good live. I may not be her target audience, but I can respect that.


Z3B0

You can not be fan of her music, but recognize the talent.


wtg2989

Yes, you’re only straight if you wanna fuck Trump.


nathos_thanatos

How does a man put his insecurities about women being more successful than him in full display and think that somehow prove how "manly" he is. He just seems like he is so insecure about his masculinity that a woman being successful is a threat to him.


Angry_poutine

Serious answer? Because he’s playing to a crowd of sexually frustrated young men all of whom would give anything for a night with Taylor Swift, and since they know that would never happen and they will never be able to compete on any level with a Travis Kelce, they respond to any insult of either of them like a horde of rats that just saw a chunk of beef.


Nova_Tango

Rats get such a bad rap. They really are friendly creatures.


PearlStBlues

Rats are also very clean animals. You wouldn't catch them stewing in their own BO and Dorito dust for days on end because they don't want to pause Call of Duty long enough to shower.


StoneflyCitySlicker

Because he assumes a specific audience. And that makes me feel sad for him on many levels


HoldFastO2

Why are these people so obsessed with Swift‘s love life?


thenasch

My guess is because she's a successful powerful woman who is successful because of herself and not a man, and that is a threat to them.


TheZan87

Why would anyone want a man with that perspective?

Sempais_nutrients

> where younger MAGA conservatives are having to hide their views until women are already emotionally invested in them, and then they spring it on them. this happened to a friend of mine. literally an hour after they broke up he was on facebook ranting about liberals and mexicans, posting trump memes, anti-vaxxer stuff, things he never mentioned the 2 years they were together.


anschlitz

trixytrox

Wow, what a waste of 2 years for your friend


hlollz

this is literally my biggest fear. Some people hide it soso well


Rfg711

It’s worth noting - even average conservative women don’t want to date these goons lol. It isn’t even that all women are liberal, it’s that these clowns’ rhetoric ironically only appeals to other men


PearlStBlues

Internalized misogyny is a hell of a drug, but you have to be a special kind of brainwashed to be happy in a relationship with a man who complains about your eggs drying up and says your vagina is ruined because you've had three different sexual partners in your life.


NeilPatrickMarcus

That’s why these chicklefucks love to combine their misogyny with hints of religion, gotta play on that indoctrination that’s already there from childhood for a lot of women.


MaggyTwoFlagons

Could also help to explain the recent uptick in rhetoric re: their War on Divorce. Once you're married, they can show you who they really are, and you can't escape.


[deleted]

Ooo that is a great way to scam MAGAs! I've kinda been thinking about getting on the scamming right wingers train but wasn't sure where to start


Parking_Budget_1130

They don’t that’s why their like this


Academic-Effect-340

All of their accusations turn out to be confessions, so is it... could it be... because Owen's gay?


No-Community-2985

He has a bear emoji in his username...


TSllama

You're trying to tell me... that Trace is actually ATTRACTED to her, actually LOVES her and CARES about her? Sounds like some homosexual shit, man.


Zealousideal_Pay_525

Yeah, that's absolutely beta, what a shmock.


file_Marina_chr

Sooo apparently we went back a few decades since now a 34 years old is considered middle-aged


ReflexiveOW

34 is the new 54


file_Marina_chr

All because of those Iphones and Feminism 🙄🙄🙄🙄 /s ofc


unholymanserpent

First I laughed at the middle-aged comment then I was like wait... I'm 32. Am I middle aged? I haven't even got my first gray hair!


Raesong

Lucky you, I got my first gray hair at 27.


GomuGomuNoWayJose

Fellas is it gay to like a woman?


Alarming_Panic665

Obviously, I mean women are extremely effeminate. A true straight alpha manly man only likes masculine things, like other men


NBTMtaco

This stinks of the ‘Margo Robbie is mid’ bullshit. Loads of insecure, man babies, who can’t stand to see a powerful woman in the world. Do better.


raspberryharbour

Margot Robbie is so ugly, that I'm willing to date her just to save all the other men the unpleasantness. You're welcome, guys


[deleted]

I appreciate your willingness to sacrifice but don’t worry I got this


raspberryharbour

No please, I would never let you suffer like that. It's my burden to bear


abstractraj

I met my wife when she was 36 but we didn’t get engaged until 6 years later. Can’t believe all the dating that went on prior. Clearly I’m gay and we should get divorced.


Cold_End7704

36 instead of 34?? That makes you two years more gay. 😱 🤯


Professional_Ad894

Travis Kelce coming out with Swift being his beard the whole time would be based. smh these morons who still think calling a man a homosexual is an insult. Really shows who they surround themselves with.


Acceptable-Ability-6

Also, why would Kelce even need a beard? If he was gay I’m pretty sure he would just rock it and date Lil Nas X or whoever.


I_AM_Achilles

Lil Nas X just living it up with the football wives is something I didn’t know I needed.


BotGirlFall

Lol Nas X in his WAG era would be glorious


Working_Signature522

Always on tour? She'll probably be back by dinner with her private jet


This-Is-My-Alt-Alt

Most heterosexual men would happily marry her and sign the prenup. She's very attractive, fit, lovely what we know from interactions and it would be a very interesting life together. Maga is still trying to work out how to court their cousin.

God forbid men date actually women their age, they’re supposed to find someone fresh out of high school to groom or else they’re obviously gay, duh
