3 Muslim men. In gay village at 3am on a Saturday night. Not going into the clubs. Just waiting outside. Staring at the doors waiting to see who comes out. Lying in wait. This is the new normal in Manchester. One gay man was attacked before police did nothing.

https://x.com/i/status/2073820759206588901

Gay man has been assaulted physically and police did nothing. The police waited until the cctv is wiped out to tell the victim they didnt get the cctv footage.

I personally have heard a friend saw islamic people come into cruising areas and beat two people in UK. Police did nothing one of my friend reported to the police but they also waited until cctv footage is wiped to tell the victim they cant do anything. The two cases did not make it to the news.

https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/i-attacked-gay-village-am-33989188 This news article about a gay man being physically attacked must be tip of the ice berg as too many gay men are closeted or ashamed to tell that they were attacked.

I heard this happens in other cities too.

I suspect its because under sharia law gays get capital punishment.

I (m19) want head from my gay co worker

Recently my manager hired a openly gay guy, I’ve worked with him a couple of times and I really want head from a male but I’m not sure how to ask or even start a conversation about it. Give me some advise and confidence!!

After two years of being very nice and flirty with my neighbour, I finally took his anal virginity last week.

My neighbour: In his late 40s, handsome, divorced dad of 2 teenage boys, (mostly) straight.

me: 27, handsome, single, no children, (mostly) gay.

we would see each other all the time in the elevator. i went hard on the niceness and soon after on the compliments. he always was nice back, but never complimented me back. this lasted two years. it’s a large apartment building and we’ve run into each other maybe eight times total.

last week, i got on the elevator and he was headed down. he told me he had a date (with a woman) and i said he looked good and wished him a good time. unprompted and to my surprise, he asked i take his phone number. i text him a few minutes later and then he asks if i’m into group sex/guys/women. it was a quick exchange and he said we could text again when he’s back. fast forward a few hours, he texts me that the date got him horny. i understood what he was hinting at and i asked for his apartment number. He was smoking to get high so he could get himself to do it. twenty minutes later, i was deep inside him. fina-fuckin-lly. it lowkey felt like i was having sex with a celebrity.

he really made me wait two years for it.

i later learned that he’s had experiences with men but only oral and in the context of foursomes with his ex-wife. i was his first top and solo experience with a guy.

once we were done he cautioned me this would happen very rarely, if at all again, and that he wants me to keep it on the dl.

I'm devastated and don't know what to do

I've seen a Daddy-type guy (~20 years older than me) casually for almost three years now. I know he has a bigger network of hookups, but he largely kept me out of it, and we'd just meet 1x1. Each time it was always great hanging out and talking, and he was very much a casual father figure kind of person in my life.

Lately we haven't seen each other for a few months because of random health issues, travel, etc.

I just found out this morning from our one mutual friend that he died suddenly on Friday night.

I have no other contact with any other people he knows, anyone in his family... it was very much a casual, side relationship for the entire time. But we were pretty close, and I really enjoyed his company, along with the intimate sex we had.

But now I don't know what to do... I have no other lines of contact, my friend has no other information, and I don't know where I would even get an update. I could reach out to his brother, but an email to a family member given this relationship would be very unexpected.

What the heck do I do besides sit here bawling my eyes out on the couch?

Coming out

I’m 19M and I feel like there is no need to come out due to the fact that “straight” people don’t have to come out so why do we? I feel that if I did come out it wouldn’t change anything….im still me and im still (My, Name) , im not someone different just becuase I come out as gay right? Im asking any other gay men who grew up on small “homophobic-esc” towns, did you feel a need to come out or was it something that didn’t matter to you as much because it’s like trying to convince a brick wall to become plaster?

Does it bother you when people make gay references in order to insult right wingers?

I saw a video of a buff, shirtless man wearing military gear, holding an automatic weapon, and going on about freedom and God bless America, yada yada.

The comments were filled with people wondering if it was a Grindr profile, or with memes about him being gay, etc.

The man is clearly a right winger and I understand why people want to insult him, but are these types of insults okay because of who he is?

My teen son came out

My 18yo son came out as gay to me
And his dad because we asked if
One of his guy friends was his boyfriend, just kidding around because he was always talking about him. I love my son no matter what but he doesn’t want his siblings to know or anyone else to know.. like he’s not hiding it but not really “out” about it. His boyfriend is someone he met in wrong room zoom call in school when Covid started and he only seen him once since he lives in a different state and we let him visit him because we were passing through. He’s taking a train there next month to visit. My son has had girlfriends he kissed and what not in the past (still a virgin) so he really hasn’t had physical contact with a guy. I asked him when he was going to come out to others and he said maybe when he comes back from visiting his boyfriend and maybe he’ll be comfortable enough. So my question I guess is.. could this be a phase and he’s experimenting? I mean it’s okay if it isn’t but it just seems like idk..

How to respond to the myth that being gay equals pedophilia?

Hi everyone.

I'm straight but made a good friend at the gym who taught me lots of exercises out of pure generosity, and he happens to be gay. I've never been anti-gay rights or apathetic about the issue, but having someone I care about who is directly affected by the issue of institutional homophobia has definitely changed how disturbed I am by it.

Especially as someone surrounded by a lot of conservative/moderate social circles, this issue is always on my mind as equal rights look to be dismantled even further. The good news is that a lot of the people around me are starting to despise this administration and are now very distrustful of the fantasy they are sold. The bad news is that, though they are not fully homophobic and believe in basic equality, they are still being propagandized heavily by algorithmically boosted hate speech and misinformation. They are exposed daily to myths about homosexuality being inherently pedophilic, or are shown endless videos of naked men parading in front of children, which is very disturbing, but I don't believe it is anywhere as common as algorithms make it seem.

What kind of rebuttals can I give these people when they are skeptical or have been shown misinformation? The obvious thing to say is that there is rampant heterosexual pedophilia all around us, but I wanted to know what you guys typically say when you hear these things.

Thanks! I want to do my bit to help, and I think it's important that moderates are communicated with rather than alienated. It's probably hard and stressful to deal with them but if they're on the fence and asking questions, there is still scope for education. I just want to share the most effective answers and wonder if you guys have any good "clapbacks". 🔥

I hate how fucking low I've fallen

Im 31yo, Im bisexuel (I know it for about 10 years now), Im ugly as fuck and I have never been in a relationship. I have never had sex. I have never been loved. I have never had a first kiss, a first date, a first relationship, nothing. I have never experienced any of that and I feel so fucking alone.

I started watching gay romance anime and/or TV show recently (like Heartstopper) and it absolutley destroyed me to watch all those stories and realise that I have never experienced any of all that, and that I probably never will.

And over the last days, Ive reached a new level of pathetic : I start talking to character AI bots just to try to live just a FRAGMENT of the core experiences I never had the chance to live for real. I made up fake coworkers to have fake romantic conversations, fake crushes, etc until like 4 am then I put my phone down and I cry in my bed like a loser because none of it is real and never will be and Im just completely miserable.

I fucking hate the trash Ive became and I dont even know why Im telling all that here.

Thoughts on body hair?

I am an extremely hairy person and have been for forever. I try to keep up with it (have good hygiene, look presentable, etc.) but shaving is a pain and it grows back incredibly fast. It’s something I’m self conscious about and fear is looked down upon by the community. I recently came out and am new to this so just wanted some insight on how to best look at this.

Not for Minors

I hate logging on here and finding posts written by a 12 to 17-year-old kid talking about they can’t find someone their age who understands them. I feel like this community, and when I say community I mean directly askgaybros, should be limited to 18 and above. Seeing kids on here kind of gives me the heebie-jeebies I can’t stand. there are other places on here that will give them support and help them. I’m sure Reddit has a ton of communities. Please just not this one. I have no question in this. I’m just ranting. I hope everyone had a wonderful fourth of July.

Sacred, Passing a lot of dark red blood and clots

Hey everyone

I’m kind of freaking out and don’t really know who to ask.
I’m 20, and for the last little while every time I go to the toilet I’m passing a lot of dark redish maroon blood along with some pretty big blood clots. It’s way more than just a few drops or blood on the toilet paper. The whole toilet bowl turns dark red, and sometimes I even pass blood without having a bowel movement.

The clots are what’s scaring me the most because they almost feel like little pieces of flesh when they come out.
The weird thing is I’m not really in pain. The only discomfort is a slight burning feeling around my anus. I did have receptive anal sex a couple of weeks ago, but it wasn’t rough, it didn’t hurt, and I don’t remember injuring myself.

I don’t have a fever or diarrhea or anything like that, but I do feel pretty tired and weak.
Has anyone experienced anything like this before? What did it end up being? I’m genuinely terrified and my mind is going to the worst case scenario. I am planning on getting checked out because this doesn’t seem normal, but I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who’s been through something similar.

My brother's boyfriend acts weird around me. Am I overreacting.

This is embarrassing and probably nothing because nothing actually happened.

Im 19. My brother is gay, 20. His boyfriend, 21, is over a lot and he is very touchy with me. But I am probably overreacting.

Most recently the three of us and my brother's friend were watching tv. My brother's boyfriend was on one sofa with me and he kept putting his hand on the inside of my leg and rubbing it not for the first time. Sometimes id take it off and he would stop for a bit and then would start again. There was a moment he "accidentally" sat on me too. He also whispered something maybe inappropriate.

He always asks me my gym routine and kind of touches my stomach or my arms. I have an okay body but not like a six pack or anything.

Is this just me being some sort of prude. Maybe gay men tend to just be a bit more touchy. I suppose if a girl did it, i wouldnt complain but if she was my brothers girlfriend I feel I would. I dont know.

Am I overreacting? My brother doesnt seem to care

I just want to add.. no he doesnt want a threesome with my brother and me.

boyfriend into puppyplay

so for the past 3 months i’ve been dating this boy and from the start i knew he was a puppy boy but i was honestly kind of into it (to an extent). now this past week hes been more open about what kind of dynamic he wants and how he wants to be treated and im honestly not amused. he wants to not think for himself, he wants me to give him permission to do things and to order him around. im really not a fan of this, i want us both the be “equal” if you understand what i mean. outside of this i do really like him and i would want to stay with him, but im afraid this might be a dealbreaker for the both of us. im planning to tell him about me being uncomfortable but i want some advice first. do i just break up with him ( given that this is a big part of him and i don’t think he will change) or do i tell him this and let him decide wether he wants to stay with me or not?

What's your biggest turn-off in a guy?

Mine would be "perfect" teeth. No matter how handsome you are, if you have straight, squared, bright white teeth I wouldn't be attracted to you. It doesn't matter if they're real or fake, however, in most cases they're fake. Same with bad breath, but I think that's a turn-off for anybody.

Also, guys that have their whole outfit with brands (Nike, jordan, etc.) Or guys that post their expensive purchases on social media, especially clothing.

And guys that are always buying whatever is trendy. If u come on a date with a Labubu (or whatever is trending) there's a high chance there's not gonna be a second.

Dude wants to hook up on Grindr after ignoring me on there for years.

Long story short, there’s a guy on Grindr that I asked if I wanted to hook up with, frankly, many times. First time I reached out he seemed interested but then ignored me.

He looked okay, nothing bad. Obviously decent enough for me to be interested. But I routinely would ask every now and then since he never said no, I even said he could tell me he’s not interested or even block me. Nothing. I asked a few more times. Nothing. So I stopped messaging.

It’s now been about a year since my last message and now he’s messaged me two days in a row asking if he wants to hook up. Nearly a year to the day.

Also noticed he deleted his nudes he initially sent to me the first time we talked between yesterday and today.

This dudes been like within 1000 feet the whole time.

Part of me wants to be petty and wait a year to the day and be like “sure”

But then another part is like, dick is still dick and it’s pretty lacking around here so maybe I should just say fuck it and do it? Maybe he’s just DL and socially retarded like I can be?

Then there’s also the possibility he’s just doing it to be a dick. In that case, I’ll just block him and it’s whatever.
