Hi Everyone!! :smile:
The much talked about White Sox KISS.
What emotional response do you have to seeing [THIS?][0]
Is it positive? Is it negative?
In many countries - the idea of two guys kissing each other on the lips [and being otherwise physically affectionate with each other] is no big deal. It is perfectly OK to be very touchy-feely in other words. [with those they care about or love] In the U.S. - however [and in many other countries - I'm sure - even Canada?!] two guys kissing OR displaying any form of genuine affection for one another is considered inappropriate. [as if doing so is a threat to their masculinity] It makes many people very uncomfortable.
How does it make YOU feel?
Are the men in your family physically affectionate?
I'm curious.
There was NO touching in MY family. I can hardly remember the 'men' in my family [immediate or otherwise] shaking hands. Even as a kid I thought that was kinda sad. Many guys my age [and older] have never even hugged their own father or brothers.
GREAT BIG HUG
Craig!! :smile:

What emotional response do you have to seeing THIS?It makes me think those two guys are gay .... are they?
-
hehe gay or not, it's very cute photo! If they're not gay, I would say that it's a bit unusual, but either way, they won so they're happy
-
well think they just won the world series after 88 years. How would you feel and act?
-
I didn't kiss a guy after the Red Sox won last year...and I was in Boston at the time. Should I have kissed a guy?
-
damnit you were supposed to Steve.

And to answer craigs other question about the men in my family being affectionate. My dad was physically affectionate.

Awww, how sweet ^_^My family is a very touchy-feely type of family (I guess that's why I draw comfort from touch), hugs are very normal and so are kisses (even for the men). Now I'm not saying that all the males in my family all join in for a big "group hug" and then kiss each other, but they do hug one another and give each other a kiss on the cheek if they haven't seen someone in a long time (or just a few days lol); it's normal to me.

Why did the White Sox beat the Astros? Because they're GAY!I kid, of course.
