Pink does not spell gay!

The rate at which homosexuality is becoming accepted in our society is somewhat shocking. Seen by many as going against God’s intention as described in the bible, others simply see it as a deviation from the norm. Personally I have my own reservations but I am not ready to influence someone’s decision making; heck I have trouble making my own.

The right or wrong of homosexuality is someone else’s concern, mine is just how confident we are about our own sexuality especially the men. I know people who wouldn’t do anything that they think would bring their sexuality into question, but while some are obvious don’ts others are simply ridiculous. We live in a society that has ‘genderized’ almost everything. From colors to food and drinks, it’s almost as if they come with a ‘for males/females only sign.

So let’s start with color. Some men would be caught dead wearing pink just because it comes out as feminine. While this may be true, you can easily look super good in pink as compared to black blue or other ‘manly’ colors. Putting on a pink shirt will not make you grow a vagina or instantaneously divert your attraction towards fellow men. Go on and try something out of your comfort zone.

Probably the most ridiculous arguments I’ve heard is that about soda. Apparently there are some flavors, i.e. the Fanta range, that are reserved for the fair ones. I once ordered a fanta orange in the company of a lady friend and she said, “Really? That is a feminine drink.” I looked at her gave a sheepish smile and sipped away loudly telling her in my thoughts “Go die!” If I like a certain flavor that doesn’t mean my testosterone levels will fall to zero.

There are some gay people who are manly in every aspect and wouldn’t pass as gay but that does not change the fact that they are. At the end of the day it is what your innate self is tuned to. I’ll wear pink, take fanta orange but all that matters is no guy can give me a boner. If you know you only ogle the ladies why would you question your sexuality? If you are confident that you are straight, why go the extra mile and try make sure that other irrelevant things don’t make you feel otherwise?  

So go ahead and be a nurse, dress in pink, listen to soft music, watch romantic movies. At the end of the day it is who gives you a hard-on that determines whether you are straight or not!
