I think it somehow makes them feel insecure, like I might run off with a dude at any moment in a relationship. At least that's what some of my female friends have told me in the past when I asked them why some girls might find it weird.
Could be.
They might feel like it means that they're incomplete because they don't have a penis.
They might also believe that there's no such thing as bi, that everybody is straight or gay and that being bi simply means you're in denial.
My theory is that there's still a subtle meme at play in our culture that being gay makes you less of a man, so for a man to like other men makes him less masculine, and therefore less suitable as a partner.
Jesus Aem, no it doesn't. Diet coke tastes like shit.
Honestly, it's like you want the taste of coke but you don't want the calories so you buy something that doesn't taste like coke? Either buy a coke or don't buy a coke, but don't replace it with some shitty alternative.
Better living through chemistry, bitch.
Just buy some juice. Tastes better and is healthier.
Doesn't anybody else find it silly to replace one thing with something that doesn't taste anything like it? "I want a coke but instead I'll buy this beverage that shares its name but tastes totally different because it has lower calories." If you're gonna do that, why not just go for something much healthier? Water, juice, or even milk.
Juice is full of sugar. Milk has too much fat in it. Diet pop may or may not cause cancer. Water is bland and tasteless.
CHOOSE WISELY
I drink water like it's free.
'Cause it fucking is.
NPR ran a short report on the actual differences between tap and bottled. In America especially, there's no discernible health benefit of drinking bottled water. Can we please kill that industry now?
Every negative health effect that's been found from aspartame has been found at high daily doses. The FDA's safe cutoff is 50mg/kg per day. (That's 50 mg per 1 kg of your body weight.) Your typical diet soda has 560 mg of aspartame per liter (33.8 fluid ounces). That means if you weigh 175 pounds, or 80 kg, you can safely drink 4000 mg of aspartame or 241 fluid ounces per day. That's about 20 12-oz cans or 15 16-oz bottles per day.
Now some studies have placed that safe cut-off somewhat lower, at 20 mg/kg. That would be 96.5 oz (8 12-oz cans or 6 16-oz bottles). That's still a lot of diet soda.
Feral on
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.
About Aspartame: I was worried about it, and still kind of am because I drink a lot of it, but I asked a nationally renowned nutritionist and he told me it was okay.
About Resident Evil 4: What the fuck, the bad guys continually say they need this girl alive, but every now and then shit like this happens. These two dudes crash through the wall in some retarded drill tank and start rolling slowly forward whooping like "THIS DRILL THING IS THE BEST IDEA WE'VE EVER HAD" but no you idiots IT'S GOING TO KILL HER YOU DON'T WANT THAT DON'T YOU GET IT, THIS PLAN IS VERY BASIC I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT FOR YOU

I don't think it's a very subtle meme at all.
The reason I say it's subtle is because I think that people who aren't otherwise homophobic still play into it.
But otherwise, yeah, you're right. It isn't terribly subtle.

That there is funny.
This is also my first year being openly homo.
Considering I don't run around with a stereotypical lisp and flicking my wrist, no one really has noticed the change.
Yes, this is an issue.
Perhaps surprisingly, I never once identified as straight. As a kid, I always just thought "man I don't care about girls or guys, maybe later" (I wasn't raised in a liberal household, either) and then when I got into highschool I was like "oh lol, I'm gay".
But nobody notices because I'm not a flamer and I don't have any damned fashion sense.
Who ever said gay people could dress well. I wear Walmart clothes and whatever the else I throw on.
Yes Aem, I am a high fiving whore.
High fives under the table? All the other guys are getting them.

But that's true. Come on, it'd be totally awesome if women had dongers. Man, I'm kind of fucked up for wishing everyone looked female except with both sets of plumbing downstairs, aren't I? Oh well. I still hold out hope for all that stem-cell research business.
Fuzzy and Anon are gay? I had no idea! Awwwwwwww! We're even more diverse than I thought! Hooray for the egalitarian nature of nerdom.
I was in a hotel once in LA where they had this liter bottle of Fiji water. You know, the square bottle one. Well, it was sitting there next to the TV and I was like "sweet, free water." Well, I picked it up and it had a tag on it, and it said something like that if this bottle was opened, six dollars would be charged to your account. I thought "fuck that noise," and bought a case of Miller Lite and a small bottle of Grey Goose. If I am going to pay that much for a beverage, I will enjoy it, God damn it.

WOO COMING OUT PARTY
We need cards that say,
" Yes, I am Gay. No I am not a Girl. I am probably not good to design your house. I will not cut your hair. Yes, I am masculine. "

If I recall correctly, I remember reading about a shit ton of diet coke that went over to Iraq during Desert Storm, and was stored at too high of a temperature (yay the West and our crazy fridges), and something bad happened. I don't remember what, but something bad.

Whenever I argue with my crazy conservative friends about homosexuals, one of them always brings up how it "isn't natural"
and my response is always
"if that's the case, then why is the male g-spot about 3 inches up their ass?"
People who buy bottled water for consumption while in America are fucktarded.
Dude, but Fiji tates so good. I swear it does. I'm not a corporate whore. For true.
@Edge -- Penises make everything better. Also more boobs.
It would be kind of interesting if everyone were one gender, and could be either physically dominant or submissive. And by "interesting" I mean *fapfapfapfapfap*.

Everyone knows we chose to like people of the same sex because we want to burn in hell for all eternity.
Gawd.....

Obviously God wants to discourage non-procreative orgasms.
Bio question here, because I've never thought about it: do men ejaculate when stimulated on the prostate?

Guys, I know I keep bringing it up but this accordion is sexing up my ears so hard.
I heard this album once that I've always wanted to buy but have been unable to find. It's Franco-Arabic instrumentals done solely with a piano, an accordion, and one of the Arabic string instruments (I forget which one).
Fantastically atmospheric and haunting. I love it so much, I look for it in every Borders I see to no avail.

You would definitely love Beirut for sure.

But I don't want more places to stimulate and I don't want to give reach-arounds or put it in the butt.

The reason I say it's subtle is because I think that people who aren't otherwise homophobic still play into it.
But otherwise, yeah, you're right. It isn't terribly subtle.

meh... don't think many folks outside of Japan are down with it.
And a vagina. Let's not forget the vagina, please.
I think my sexuality can best be described as American -- more is better.
Unfortunately, my internet is so shit that buffering video is out of the question.
My internet problem is seriously the most complicated PC problem I've ever seen.
