Emotion? Well that's Gay.

Doesn't it fascinate you that whenever a man shows healthy emotion it's considered gay?
For example, I have a friend who just started dating this lovely woman, and recently updated his facebook status as "2 Months, 10 Days".
Now, I am aware that if you are in a relationship and both the individuals are as happy and romantically involved as each other, as he obviously is, it is considered healthy and good for the relationship. Even good for each individual.
What I find hard to understand is how that is classified as gay? A comment was posted to this status as "A bit gay."
Love is gay? Being romantic is gay? Showing and pronouncing your love is gay? Being in touch with your emotions as a man is considered gay now? Having the ability to self-reflect is gay?

It's not that it gets me angry, not at all. It makes me disappointed and sad. When did a man being in touch with his emotions come to be considered a homosexual attribute?
Has it come to a point where men are not even allowed to want to feel, they are not allowed the right to express?

I think it's ridiculous of course, as an emotional and very exuberant man that such things as love and passion are considered gay, when in fact it is a human function.

Not that being considered gay is a bad thing of course, I am a strong supporter of same sex love and marriage and have never in my life seen anything wrong with it. Love is universal. Therefore not only is love gay. It is also straight, bisexual, asexual, etc.

It is just the fact that when a man tries to express himself, or try to be more than just a stereotype, he becomes repressed by society. Sadly by friends.

I can't stand people like that. Who in some way, I don't know how, were raised with the idea of only one man.
Any woman will tell you, a man with emotion is an advantage. A man who is comfortable with himself enough to express his emotions and passion is never a bad thing, but a great thing.

I like being great.
