I am a normal hetero man. A lot of times I see posters on this site expressing serious dislike of gay men. This I don't understand. Every gay man means there is one more free woman. More for me! Everybody wins!

If I were single, I would agree. Being happily married, I don't have room or desire for another gal.

Most of it is from cowardly gay men who forced themselves to live in the closet while faking a life of Machismo. They are envious of those with the courage to come out. Other homophobic posters were buggered as children by trusted family or members of the clergy. The third group of homophobes are drunken Johns, surprised by a penis when they picked up a “lady boy” on shore leave In Bankok or a Transvestite hooker on Bourbon Street.

Good analogy publican.

I'll propose an answer to my own question. Perhaps these gay-hating men see their wives or girlfriends as a burden imposed on them by societal expectations or their own need for sex. They see gays as shirking their duty, and resent them for that.

The question might make for an interesting topic for a PhD candidate's dissertation. (For all I know, it has already been done.)

A consequence of China's one child policy was parents avoiding having girls. As a result there are many single Chinese men. In my opinion this was an awful policy. Had they discriminated against men and produced an excess of women I would say great.

Sorry, but your life experiences don't explain anything but your own problems.

And it still looks like your usual trolling

Troll alert.

Kevyn,
As usual you make no sense!

I don't make a practice defending other people's posts, but in this case, Salva, I have to say, what's your problem?

Women Were Asked If They’d Rather Be Stuck In A Forest With A Man Or A Bear — And Their Answers Are Sad
"The worst a bear could do is kill me."
A question circulating the internet has gained much attention primarily from women, who nearly all gave the same answer.
Women are responding to the question: would you rather encounter a bear or a man while alone in the woods? Their answers are disheartening.
Many women said they would rather encounter a bear than a man while alone in the woods.
The question has gained popularity on social media platforms over the last few weeks, with many women chiming in.
While they offer various explanations, the majority of them say that they would rather run into a bear while walking alone through the woods than a man.
TikTok news outlet SCREENSHOT went around London asking various women the question. Out of the eight women they asked, seven responded that they would rather encounter a bear.
One woman claimed that men are “scarier” than bears. Another said that they know that bears don’t always attack if they see you walking alone. Another said, “Depends on what man, but probably a bear.”
While bears are undoubtedly much stronger and faster than any man on Earth, most women believe they would be safer if they ever ran into a bear.
And they may be right.
The 750,000 Black Bears that inhabit North America kill less than one person per year on average. The ones who do attack usually do so as a means of self-defense if they believe that a human is encroaching on their territory or if they are protecting their young.
Men aged 18-24, on the other hand, are 167 times more likely to kill someone.
Even if they do not kill, some of them commit unspeakable acts of horror against women if they have the opportunity to get them alone.
According to RAINN, 1 out of every 6 American women has been the victim of an attempted or completed sexual assault in her lifetime (14.8% completed, 2.8% attempted).
A man, however, can petrify you, assault you, degrade you, and possibly, when he’s done doing all of that, then he’ll kill you.
