Straight men here: does affection from another man make you uncomfortable?
Advertisements [?]
If another man (who you assume is straight) puts his arm around you, in a friendly way (over the shoulders) are you frozen in terror until it's over, or do you just bask in it? If you're sitting next to another man that you know (for example at a ball game) and your knee is resting against his knee, does this creep you out? If a man shakes your hand or pats you on the back or touches you a lot longer than you expected him to - do you read something into it and think it's a homosexual "hint" or come-on? Do you get uncomfortable being touched by another man or do you enjoy it? (I'm referring to before any influence of alcohol, which seems to throw all the "rules" out the window).
