Masculinity is a bitch.

lets be real, anytime a boy says something endearing to another boy. they have to (for reason of being thought of as a homosexual) clarify that they're not by stating no homo.
i have two problems with this.
1. why can't straight men talk about their feelings without being viewed as a gay man?
2. more importantly, why is there a negative connotation on the word gay? is there something wrong with the word gay? or is it the thought of being gay? because if it's afraid of being not masculine, then we might actually have more problems than i thought.
where did this idea come from? why do men need to be overly masculine, and if i'm not like that, does that make me less of a man
i think that if this irrational fear of being gay is hindering the growth of boys, then something must be changed.
...probably the boys.

i think that it's also important to get rid of the stereotypes we have where straight men have to be tough, and gay men aren't.
