Gay Porn is Not Gay

This comes from an inside joke I had with my friend Sean.  He had brain cancer and his ex-girlfriends' dad sent him a message on Facebook which said:
"Sean, I just want you to know that there are 26 men praying for you in San Diego."

We thought about the statement for a minute and elaborated on it.

26 men.  In a room.  Praying.  Naked.  And it's not gay because it's religious.

This spawned the "gay not gay" joke wherein the point is to create homoerotic scenarios and explain it away as not being gay for funny reasons, but it often really would be pretty much gay.

Here's another example:

Sean - It's not gay for two men to sit in a hot tub together naked.

Nick - No no, of course not, it's an age old tradition.

Sean - Yes.  And if they massage each other with essential mineral oils, it's not gay!

Nick - Right, because massages feel fucking great.

Sean - So do you want to get in the hot tub?

Nick - Nah.  But it wouldn't be gay if we did.

Sean - But we could.

Nick - But we won't.

Right around this time, we had another inside joke known as "Teen Mouth."

This was derived from reading through the titles of the adult channels on cable tv.

One was called "Please Finish in My Teen Mouth"

So we thought, "Hmm that's funny, that a particular body part would be an age."

And we noticed of course that the word "teen" seems to be a craze in the adult film industry, which is also funny.

So then we add on to the gay not gay joke something like:

Sean - It's not gay.  We're at least 18.

Nick - At least!
