Why do straight men react to two men holding hands or kissing the same way they would react to 1 guy 1 cup?

Why do you start gagging and running around like you just saw someone get their head chopped off?Are you really that disgusted by affection between to males? Do you think its funny to have an over the top reaction?

It just dosen't make sense to me because homosexuals don't react that way to straight couples. I kind of feel like you're just putting on a show so that people don't think you're gay. Be honest.

    I think you're right. Look at the negative answers you got.

    Two people holding hands = disgusting???

    In some countries, like Turkey or India it is perfectly normal for two straight men to walk around holding hands. It's a sign of their friendship and nobody even thinks twice about it.

    What these people really find disgusting is not the act of holding hands, but what it represents. That someone has different feelings and believes than they themselves do. Oh how 'revolting'.

    What kind of question is this?

    Most people will find homosexual acts disgusting.

    Most people were raised by a mother and father, so that's whats natural to them.

    Not two guys or girls doing acts that are seen as natural towards couples who are male and female. And to be honest no one really gives a s*it if your gay, just do your sexual acts within your house, people have kids who want to raise with morals.

    Although I'm a girl, I actually think its cute when same sex couples do that type of thing. It shows that they love each other and don't care what people think.

    However, because of all the stereotypes kids are brought up with they think its disgusting for anything out of the ordinary.

    Interesting. I'd have to agree. If you're not gay you're not gay. No need to put on a show.

    Obvious answer. They find it disgusting or sickening or gross, because they are intolerant, ignorant, homophobes. Even if they understand homosexuality and still think it's gross, they are homophobes.

    I bet the same guys who cringe at gay guys are the same ones that get all excited about lesbians.

    And gay guys and lesbians aren't sickened by straight couples because they have respect, tolerance, understanding and so much more!
