    Usually it’s men who feel it’s gay to go anywhere near their own buttholes.

    I’ve never been able to understand that level of homophobia and self-hatred.

      I don’t really buy this, because if you’re taught to wipe when you’re a toddler, it doesn’t seem realistic that you’ll stop when you’re older due to homophobia.

        Not all parents are good at parenting either.

        Get enough kids teasing each other by calling each other gay and I can easily see how a kid might get some ideas about this.

          If parents don’t teach their kid to wipe its ass then the problem is bad parenting more than homophobia.

              I was exposed to homophobia growing up, but noone was telling me not to wipe shit out of my arse. “Homophobia is deep and prevalent” is a truth but no one’s even tried to convince me that it’s so deep as to override hygiene taught as a child.

                Yes, everything that has happened to you in your life has happened exactly the same to everyone else in the entire world.

                If you’re so insistent on believing that there isn’t anyone who is homophobic enough to not wipe their ass, I can’t help you.

                Ignore the countless anecdotes and tales from people who have met people like this all you want.

                  The only consistent approach that does what you want is to believe everything anyone tells me, which I won’t be doing.
