There’s still a strong stigma that straight men (and boys for the matter) who show too much physil affectn are somehow out of the ordary, immoral, or tomatilly seen as gay.
For years this was fueled the media wh endls “gay panic” jok featurg characters negativley reactg to any display of male on male affectn. A proment example Friends’ “The One Wh The Nap Partners” where Joey and Ross accintally fall asleep on each other and, upon wakg up and disverg they’re cuddlg, eak out and have to nfirm that nothg gay happened. Many edi domated by straight men feature gags volvg guys huggg too long, exprsg their feelgs to the pot of beg awkward, or others assumg they’re gay based on how close they are.

Are extremely close but have to clarify, “there’s nothg gay about our ey.
It’s better than gay panic to be sure, but ’s still not great. When society tells you, as a straight man, that showg affectn toward another man is a joke or flat out bad, It’s not a hard leap to assume gay men are at bt a joke or at worst somethg to fear.
