Heterophobia and Fauxmosexuality
November 29th 2009 05:37
It is all completely understandable, with the weight of the uncertain future the people of the past have pressed upon us. And considering that the worlds fertility rate is now down to replenishment levels (ie no more increase in population), being a direct result of increased education of the feminine species and a general wtf is the point attitude - alright I admit it financial considerations may have played a part, it can only be seen as a by-product of the state of current international affairs.
Heterophobia is primarily a heterosexual attitude. Beta male does not want to see alpha male prowling the streets, charming the women and not allowing for any action of his own. And straight men who have taken to the eurotrend of above-the-knee shorts have two options. Curse and openly hate upon those who are more obviously heterosexual, or just give in to the new-millennium Australian stereotype and act gay.
And it is a post year 2000 phenomenon, to be considered homosexual as soon as you bear your knees in public. Lest we forget the barbecue fashion that was stubbies, those short shorts our forefathers wore in the summertime with a longneck of VB in hand.
Point at hand, it takes alot more than dressing like a dandy to be considered homosexual. Hence we witness, out of the confusion of sexual orientation, the rise of the fauxmosexual. They will openly act gay in public, introduce themselves as gay, yet somehow at the end of the night are in bed with the opposite sex. One really must be staunch in their gayness to be considered a fauxmo. The fashion, the attitude, the belief that its an easy way to score...
Inevitably, one compliments the other. Without heterophobia, there would not be the need to fake gayness in order to get away with a bit of bedrock at the end of the night. And without fauxmosexuality, there wouldn't be so much of the populace hating on openly and obviously straight men.
Myself, I try to keep a balanced opinion of both sides of the argument. But be warned - I am prone to a spot of fauxmophobia after downing a beer or two and witnessing the (1st album) Lady Gaga loving females gravitate towards the oh-so-interestingly-gay guy providing his own party philosophy.
Last time I checked, my party philosophy was working just fine. And us straighty-180's deserve some props for that, right?

Interesting article... I think that you attract the people most suitable to you by being who you are - letting people get to know you and trusting them to see the best parts of youself. It doesn't matter how un-gay or how un-fauxmo you are, you are a great person (and I mean that both generally and also specifically) who should be proud of himself.
Love yourself and the rest will follow.
