Why is homo-erotic sexual tension a more powerful literary device compared to heterosexual tension?

>> No.13122931

because homos are creepy rapists with fantasies that revolve around "converting" normal people using drugs and blackmail since their fellow molestation victims arent very fun to abuse.

question for gayfags: do your homo feelings for other guys get confused with the normal male feeling of wanting to dominate and attack other men?

>> No.13122943

>>13122923

Masculinity and things associated with it are generally homoerotic. Warfare is an easy example, a bunch of sweaty muscled men running around in the woods and camping together with big pointy spears - for a writer the symbolism is unavoidable.

Furthermore, fucking other men has been socially acceptable for much of Western history, so long as you're giving and not receiving (and even then it can depend).

Homoeroticism is at the core of all great epics

depends on the person, tops and power bottoms usually get them confused as their role in sex is inherently dominant, bottoms can usually separate these urges.

I am just now realizing the vast, all-reaching homosexual undertones ocurring throughout all of human society and history.

>> No.13122997

I always had an issue with this. Warfare and masculine things aren't homoerotic. Faggots are just turned on by them. I know it sounds the same but it has different implications, sounds almost as if those activities are sexual in nature and we just aren't turned on by them because we are straight. But for me it's the other way around.
An analogy that comes to mind is this: I wouldn't call feet erotic or whatever because footfags exists

I agree mostly with this, when I played sports there was never even the slightest feeling of romantic or sexual atmosphere in the changing room or wherever, but it's always presented as the meme of le gay jocks.

Idk about warfare to be fair.

I can speak to modern soldiering and I'll tell you right now, soldiers are fucking gross. But aside from that, you think of them as your brothers, there's no sexual tension whatsoever. You do gay shit, but it's just a culture of outrage and is meaningless except in the context of being funny.

Probably because campaigns lasted much longer back in the day, or at least there were much longer periods of time where there was no access to women. We also all had a metric ton of porn.

I suppose I have a healthy amount of violent macho ideations. The world is a terrible place and even more so for someone like me. I couldn't understand living free of that sort of vigilance.

But I don't confuse who I want to fuck with who I want to beat up, if that's what you're saying.
