This is just homophobia, by the way

Tell us you are not a gay man without telling us you are not a gay man.

Edit: Probably 85% of my social circle is some delicious flavor of queer. Kinda comes with being queer I guess. We make these jokes in part to normalize this sexuality and to make fun of hypocrites and bullies. It's the same thing as when the kid in school says "that's so gay" and you reply "oh really? You wanna get together later?". This has come up a few times - the sensitivity of some groups to these kinds of jokes - and the conclusion is basically that people who object to them are generally either not queer or insecure about being queer and want to exert control over the conversation either to get cred with the community or to assuage their fears.

When some narc on the internet would say "no homo", I liked to hit them back with a "yass homo". Or "homo where?"
