That it bothers you so much says more about you than anything else.

and what does it say about me?
that it DOESN’T bother you says a lot about YOU.

It says you are suppressing gay feelings in yourself that you are uncomfortable with. Why else would you care so much about it? It’s always the most loudmouth anti-gay people who eventually get arrested in an airport bathroom or get caught out hiring a male escort.

I’ll indulge you under the assumption that you aren’t just trolling… (I think you are just trolling though).
Anyway, this kind of cliche almost never pans out. It’s a silly stereotype that people on one side use to discredit their opponent without actually engaging on any meaningful points. “If you disagree with me, you must secretly SUPER agree with me.”
If he truly believes the study (which I think was rigged by the college kids to be funny) then he may be concerned. If 94% of straight males like to cuddle with each other and he doesn’t, now he’s wondering “wtf is up with me? Is this just the next generation? Am I that out of touch? What’s the deal, why is this so different from my experience and feelings?”
IMO these are pretty normal thoughts in a species as social as human beings. But like I said, you were probably just messing around. I can’t see any rational person actually reading “suppressed gay feelings” into these situations lol.
If it was just sharing a bed with another male I would venture to say that was nearly all college males. Now in basketball and football locker rooms there is some pretty homo stuff going on. Not really sexual, mostly just trying to humiliate the other person.
IE, you fall asleep on the bus, you might get a dick put on your shoulder. Guys fight it out and its over, guys start grab assing to freak freshman out, they cry when they think something terrible is going to happen to them then they are let off the hook. We had one poor kid convinced that the routine physicals (go behind the white curtain, cough, leave) involved anal probing.
About 5 of us went behind the curtain, screamed, got confused looks from the nurses, and walked out holding our asses. Kid is in tears walks up to the nurse calling people back and is like, I don’t want to do this, please don’t make me go back there and get something shoved up my butt. Everyone roared. It was wonderful.
I’m starting to feel left out. I managed to make it through all of college, drinking most nights, getting fucked up 2 or 3 times a week at a minimum, and never shared a bed with another dude.
Back when I was a kid, we had things called couches. And futons. And floors. And bathtubs. And people slept on single beds which left precious little room for a woman next to you let alone another big, strapping male athlete.

I wrestled as well. All the guys were pretty comfortable with their sexuality, and some spooning did happen, and we shared beds whenever we went on trips (those standard queens in hotel rooms). Some guys had nicknames based on cock and ball characteristics (the ninja rope, the dangler, etc) but so far as I know nobody grabbed anybody’s dick.
Also, I thought it was only gay if the balls touched.

Is this real life?
What’s up with the passive voice? Spooning doesn’t just “happen”. The weather “happens”. Car accidents “happen”.
Two guys shared a bed, and the big spoon draped his arm over the little spoon, who I can only assume wiggled his butt back so there was more skin contact…?
I dont’ care, I don’t know why I’m so skeeved at the idea, but this is not what straight guys do.

Only gay if you cross swords* lmao

That sounds like a rule made up by a dude who wanted to be able to fuck men in the ass and claim he wasn’t gay.

It wasn’t just “two guys shared a bed,” EVERYBODY shared a bed. Coach booked four guys to a room with two queen beds trying to save money, that was just the way it was. Any spooning occurred mostly as a joke to make any homophobes uncomfortable, from what I can remember anyways, it was years ago. The one real religious guy on the team was losing it haha. And of the two biggest spooners that I can remember, one of them is married and the other is in a pretty serious long term relationship. Both with women. Make of that what you will.

Well, only the guy taking it in the ass is gay, the other guy just likes to party.
Or is it, it’s not gay if you say “Good game” after? Maybe that’s just for friendly pats on the ass.
Teen guys/college guys do “questionable” things all the time on athletic teams as a joke. I can remember a lot of “gay” things done in a locker room and on the field that were done as jokes, including air humping guys while naked, trying to get guys to look at their junk, purposefully spreading their legs and talking to another guy to try to get the guy to glance at their junk so they can make fun of them, and getting as close as they could to another guy when they weren’t wearing clothes in the locker room to freak the guy out.
Hell, one guy was weird enough to semi jerk off in the locker room after practices/games a couple times, making a bunch of noise and usually yelling out other guy’s moms name or sister as he did it. That one was really weird, but it helps show that theres some odd stuff going on in locker rooms of young men.
I have no idea if the generation before mine did this as teens, but it’s pretty common nowadays. I can remember guys jokingly spooning each other if they thought it would get laughs, but it wasn’t an all night thing. It’s weird, but they’re doing it to be funny and to mess with the other guys.
This confirms what I’ve been saying. ‘Heterosexual’ guys spooning? There are some very, very mentally ill people out there. Honestly this is disturbing stuff.
