Cher = Genius

I honestly prefer the way we use the language. It's much more direct and straight to the point, oftentimes brutally honest. No one's feelings are spared. But after a good zinger is landed, we laugh about it and move on. Little use of p.c. and never circumlocution.

If you were to put the question before the group, the response would go along the lines of:

(Dude1) where is Cher these days? (two beats) She used to be a real hottie.

(Dude2) naw bruh, saw her on tv the other day; she looks like she's been rode hard.

(Dude1) all that plastic surgery will do it to 'em and with HDTV...fuhg-gedd-a-bou-dit

Yeah, you can really barely even see the desperate attempt to assert the masculinity.

Also, the implication that gay men are really just women with man-parts is offensive. Well, it would be coming from anyone but South Florida.

Naw,the few gay guys I know have all done at least one bid and those mofos will whoop azz and take names if they're crossed. My cousin Peanut is a dead ringer for Lafayette of TrueBlood in manner and build. Growing up he bullied the bullies. He's always quipping that he's on the hunt for a trust fund Judy.

Also, I come from a family and community where dancing is commonplace. No one from that environment has a macho complex about body movement on the dance floor or euro fashion. We joke that Kanye West has done more to put young boys in dresses than RuPaul ever did. As Joan Rivers would say...it was a joke people.

I'm often in places where groups of straight men have conversations like what you describe, javero. While I can sort of see that the language is direct, it's also not ABOUT anything. Listening to guys who consider each other friends "bust each other's chops" strikes me as being about nothing so much as not being able to stand silence. They HAVE to fill up the space.

Yes, I am speaking generally, but this is what locker room and bar room chatter among straight men is. And if their female significant others had ANY idea the crap that gets said about them, the entire world would collapse.

"And if their female significant others had ANY idea the crap that gets said about them, the entire world would collapse."

I agree. It's really disturbing on several levels, an admission I'd probably not make off this message board. Also, the one thing I HATE about the bro code is how it's sometimes used to cover up domestic violence, especially among law enforcement officers and very powerful business men who are pillars of the community. The women in their lives themselves sometimes make outlandish comments like "the dumb bish doesn't know how good she's really got it" when one of the ladies doesn't toe the line. I could write a book about it.

Reginald Tresilian said: "I'm glad this subject came up. I've always wondered why straight people like Dave Matthews Band, Billy Ray Cyrus, and Coldplay so much.

Do straight people like Coldplay? I thought only gay people liked them. According to that movie, anyway.

Reassuring to know that stereotypes are still alive and well.

South Florida sounds like someone I would love to kick in the nuts...so he would never, ever be able to reproduce. We don't need anymore of his kind infecting the planet with his blatant heterosexual ignorance.
