He says it’s his dark humour. Is this a common dark humour theme? Also he says he is straight of course.

What kind of profession does he have? Because when I asked this to my spouse, his first question was "does he work in restaurant kitchens?" 😂

This is a guy I’ve recently been on dates with and getting to know and I’ve noticed him making these jokes in almost every phone call we have so I’m curious.

My ex who was a bike courier had the same sense of humor lmao 😂
I don't think he was actually gay or anything, but he was curious about prostate play

I would think they’re probably curious 🧐 I could be wrong and probably am lol.

I mean, maybe, though in my experience closet gays tend to joke aggressively about straight nonsense as a cover up.

Avatar

I would likely say that he’s just confident and comfortable with his sexuality tbh

Avatar

It’s either he’s hiding something or he has some toxic masculinity to work out. I personally have never found it funny when guys make gay jokes. “Yeah, I’ll take a spot light on my insecurities right here”

“curious about prostate play” is really taking me out

Avatar

The results to this are so silly, joking about being gay doesn’t have any correlation with actually being gay

One time my sister dated this guy. They slept together a few times before she thought she had the realisation that he was straight up gay! She said he had very feminine characteristics, cleanly shaven from head to toe so pubic area was soft flesh and when she finally went to his house they were fighting over who got to wear his pink fluffy slippers, had pink feathered boas and a lot of pink! In the end I told her it was highly unlikely he was gay, just in touch with his feminine side however maybe a bit bi.. either way I told her to concentrate on the fact that he clearly wants to be with her otherwise he wouldn’t be there so whatever his sexuality, it really doesn’t matter. She couldn’t get past the thought he was gay though🤦🏽‍♀️

I always find it ridiculous that anyone thinks that they can just decide on someone else’s sexuality based on stereotypes.
I imagine it’s incredibly insulting to a lot of the LGBTQIA+ community tbh.

Avatar

I agree and when she said it I couldn’t help but roll my eyes! I met the guy myself and nothing about him screamed out “I’m gay” like my sister suggested! Fact of the matter is, there isn’t a one type fits all in the LGBT+ community. We all have our likes and dislikes and I had a hard time getting her to understand a man can be as masculine as they come and be gay, in here eyes it was all about stereotypes and even more so.. if it was what she thought then she was right🤷🏽‍♀️. Well now she is “happily” married to a guy who she always complained was bad in bed and couldn’t satisfy her and the list of problems went on so… good luck with that😅

Avatar

I figure that the jokes were because he was worried being into that made him "gay"

Avatar

In my personal experience closeted men are much more likely to be outwardly homophobic or sexist with their jokey jokes to try to fit in with their perception of what a straight man would do/say. Men who make jokes about themselves being gay I’ve never found them to be closeted at all, like clearly they’re comfortable enough to allude to that and portray that about themselves so why would they hide it if they actually were gay or bi? You know what I mean lol

Avatar

I frequently see people joke about being gay when they are either In the closet, actually gay, or some degree of Bi/Pansexual (which is my case, personally)

Its a lot of down Lo's out here ladies be safe 😎

Am I justified???

I have a friend of 12 years we met through work. We are both pregnant (2 weeks apart) . We have been supporting each other through the pregnancy. It has been great because she has kids and has done this pregnancy thing twice already and just nice to have someone who gets it. We live an hour distance from each other so we made a commitment to meet every couple of months.
We met last time in January end of 1st trimester celebration and we went to their place.
For our March meet up we agreed somewhere mutual to do some baby shopping and see each other on a Saturday.
I asked her about meet time several times and she kept on saying she needed to check with her partner
Last time I asked was Friday before our meet the next day at 8pm and she was still checking.
Saturday (day of the meet) morning I heard nothing but didn't want to come off nagging. Bear in mind I can see her posting stuff on socials. Nothing all of Saturday nothing Sunday nothing Monday then Tuesday 9pm I get a 2 sentence apology "sorry I forgot and sorry it took me till Tuesday to realise'

I have ignored the message because I am pretty angry. I just feel disrespected and that mine and my husband's time is not valued of theirs. She didn't even bother to give a good excuse ? Am I justified to be angry ?
I do hold a grudge so I can overreact

Hi mums so I’m 25 &
I have a two year old little girl and it’s only us two everyday … I have no friends myself so it’s hard to find stuff to do daily especially alone as I have really bad anxiety we are still waiting for a nursery place

I just wish I could find a genuine mum friend who doesn’t have a secret agenda towards me and we can just raise our kids together but it’s way harder for me because I feel like I don’t fit in anywhere at all anymore ..
I know there are some mums going through the same

would you stick around or leave

not about me personally or anyone i know!! but i saw this online on a different app and wanted your opinion, just for fun! i like seeing everyone’s perspectives! okay so, if someone you know and you’re close to (friend, best friend, or a family member) was in a toxic/ abusive relationship would you still be friends with them and try to help get them out or would you cut them off for your own safety and mental health?

Need advice on my partner

Me and my partner have a mutual agreement that he cares for our baby over the weekend (including the night) as in the week hes home at funny hours due to work. If he decides he wants to go out with his mates I happily look after our little one but this weekend we got into abit of an argument I went bed and at around 11pm and woke up to him not at home and our baby crying, he had snuck out to go clubbing and left me with the baby, I wouldn't be bothered if he had told me before I went sleep so I knew to wake up with the baby but he didn't he also lied to me when he eventually got home at 4 that he had been round a mates. I've chose to try and move past it but I'm just wondering what other people would do in this situation x
