"Last year, NYU Press published the fascinating book Not Gay: Sex Between Straight White Men by the University of California, Riverside, gender and sexuality professor Jane Ward. In it, Ward explored various subcultures in which what could be called “straight homosexual sex” abounds — not just in the ones you’d expect, like the military and fraternities, but also biker gangs and conservative suburban neighborhoods — to better understand how the participants in these encounters experienced and explained their attractions, identities, and rendezvous. But not all straight MSM have gotten the same level of research attention. One relatively neglected such group, argues the University of Oregon sociology doctoral student Tony Silva in a new paper in Gender & Society, is rural, white, straight men (well, neglected if you set aside Brokeback Mountain).

“As Cain [one of the interview subjects] said, “I’m really not drawn to what I would consider really effeminate ****** type[s],” but he does “like the masculine looking guy who maybe is more bi.” Similarly, Matt (60) explained, “If they’re too flamboyant they just turn me off,” and Jack noted, “Femininity in a man is a turn off.” Ryan (60) explained, “I’m not comfortable around femme” and “masculinity is what attracts me,” while David shared that “Femme guys don’t do anything for me at all, in fact actually I don’t care for ’em.” Jon shared, “I don’t really like flamin’ queers.”

“I go on road trips, drink beer, go down to the city [to] look at chicks, go out and eat, shoot pool, I got one friend I hike with. It normally leads to sex, but we go out and do activities other than we meet and suck.”

Pat described a typical meetup with his regular: “We talk for an hour or so, over coffee … then we’ll go get a blowjob and then, part our ways.” Similarly, Richard noted, “Sex is a very small part of our relationship. It’s more friends, we discuss politics … all sorts of shit.”

“The participants reinforced their straightness through unconventional interpretations of same-sex sex: as “helpin’ a buddy out,” relieving “urges,” acting on sexual desires for men without sexual attractions to them.”

"The Phenomenon of ‘Bud Sex’ Between Straight Rural Men"

Hmm, I really couldn't care less what consenting adults do with each other sexually, it's none of my business, but the "rural" aspect is interesting. I recall on election night that regardless of the state, rural districts voted for Trump, just about every single one. One has to wonder if there's a correlation.

oh please. there's nothing gay about an occasional bro-job. grow up, people.

Are there pictures in the book? Because Robbie and Bash love to look at pictures.

Really have to wonder if there's a correlation. Because it really does jive with today's conservative views of essentially rewriting the 'rules', to fit the current need. "It's not gay sex, we're just two good male friends who leave the wives at home to go on hikes, fishing, shoot pool and then straight-sex just happens between us." Yet they'll refer to other gay males in the derogatory.

Remember this was Published by the NYU Press. Whats "Rural" to them is probably just what happens in Central Park.

Actually touched on exactly that in the article:

In some of the subcultures Ward studied, straight MSM were able to reinterpret homosexual identity as actually strengthening their heterosexual identities. So it was with Silva’s subjects as well - they found ways to cast their homosexual liaisons as reaffirming their rural masculinity.-snip

If you, a straight guy from the country, once in a while have sex with other straight guys from the country, it doesn’t threaten your straight, rural identity as much as it would if instead you, for example, traveled to the nearest major metro area and tried to pick up dudes at a gay bar. You’re not the sort of man who would go to a gay bar — you’re not gay.-snip

Seems the conservative view is: Having gay sex means you're actually more straight

****ing hilarious.

And factual, look at the 2016 election results by counties, regardless of state, rural areas voted for Trump time and time again:

It all just can't be one massively "yuge" coincidence, can it.

If you think rural counties didn't vote for Trump, you really should check your facts, angry person.

I was referring to the fact that you can suck dick and be straight.

But yeah, the same Conservative dumb dumbs voted Trump.

How dare you try and box in Trumpers with labels, they can give each other "bro-jobs" and be straight as an arrow.

Phahaha! Oh man, this shit never gets old, it just doesn't. Why is that the dudes who specifically describe their sexuality as 'not gay' are almost always highly homosexual? I've also heard that among some gay men pretending to be straight can be a massive turn-on.
