    I haven’t really met like a hundred queers in my life but I have this one gay friend that been my bestie for a solid 12 years so far and never heard him or any of our other queer friends tell a joke it’s always the straights who tell the gayest and yet funniest jokes and they always land home, that’s just my experience so far I wish to meet someone that would change my mind tho

      I haven’t had the same experience with jokes (my experience aligns more with the meme) but I always hear the most homoerotic comments from the straights.

      I’m closeted to one group of friends, and i openly say gay shit because it’s funny and I can get away with it and have only been questioned once. But good lord can some of the straight people in that group effortlessly say gayer shit than me.

        Lol as a straight guy, that tracks. For me, I think it’s that I’m comfortable with myself and who I am on the spectrum of sexuality, and don’t really care if people judge me as gay. You’re damn right if there’s something funny to be said that happens to be gay as fuck, I’m just gonna go ahead and say it.
