Still being new to this, was wondering if "top" and "bottom" can be used as verbs? (tongue in cheek) Say some SOB asks, "what are you, gay?" Would the correct smartass response be, "why, are you looking for someone to top you?"
I don't understand why gay men use those terms at all. I know you probably have your preferences but....straight people do it every which direction. (top, bottom, sideways, from behind, on our heads lol ) Don't gay people do that too? *curious*
Like Becky, I've never had gay sex, but it's just slang for giving and receiving of anal sex, isn't it? So, theoretically, you could both be standing or sideways or... on your heads... and still have a top and bottom, right? Or am I just getting this whole anal sex thing really, tragically wrong? And as SamAlex said, they are frequently also used as verbs.
Eh... maybe I've misunderstood this, or just that my attempt at humor is beyond dry... The way I understood it, "top" gives... thus if a person (assuming male) asked someone if he was gay in a demeaning way, implying that he is asking to receive anal sex would be somewhat insulting. At least to people I've known in the past... LOL... it must not be funny :lol:
The correct use of the terms? OK... This is a top. This is a bottom. Questions? >>>I don't understand why gay men use those terms at all. I know you probably have your preferences but....straight people do it every which direction. (top, bottom, sideways, from behind, on our heads lol ) Don't gay people do that too? *curious* We do do it every which way. (Sometimes all in one night. ) But when straight people have sex, no matter how it's getting done, it most often involves the male putting his penis somewhere into the female. When gay men have sex, the basic question is "which of us is going to be doing the inserting?" The one who does is considered the "top". The one who is getting inserted into is considered the "bottom". It doesn't matter where everyone is. If a guy is lying on his back, and his partner straddles him to get inserted, the guy on his back is still the "top", even though he's technically on the bottom. These terms are most often used for anal, but they can also refer to oral, as well, especially if one person only gives and the other only receives. If a guy likes both giving and receiving, he's usually classified as "versatile"*. Some couples will switch off topping and bottoming, but most tend to prefer one over the other. At that point, they use the term "top" or "bottom" to indicate this. Doing so will prevent guys from picking up somebody at a bar, taking them home, stripping off the clothes, then watching as both of them "assume the position". "You mean, you're a...aw, damnit!" Lex * - this sometimes is further divided into "versatile top" and "versatile bottom". "Versatile top" means "I prefer topping, but I don't mind bottoming", whereas "versatile bottom" means "I prefer bottoming, but I don't mind topping".
A man named Vinny dies and goes to hell. The Devil says to him "Hey Vinny we've been waitin for ya!". Vinny smiles and walks with the Devil and the Devil says "I gotta ask you a couple questions, do you like to smoke?" Vinny answers "Ya, I love to smoke." The Devil says "Good you'll like Mondays we smoke everything cigarettes, cigars, weed everything." "Now do you like to drink?" Then Vinny says "Of course I love to drink." The Devil replies "Great we drink everything on Tuesdays you will fit in great." "Do you like to have sex?" Vinny says "Hell ya sex is the best." The Devil smiles and replies "We have sex with every type of woman you could think of on Wedesdays." And the Devil finally says "Now, are you gay?" Vinny frowns and answers "NO I'm not gay! And the Devil looks down and finishes "Your gonna hate Thursdays." I dont think its funny but theres the one i found. As for your comeback i would say it makes sense to me but i dont think all would get it. Though i dont think that question needs an answer like that.
I'm not too hip on slang but i'm pretty sure the catcher IS the reviever. Pitcher-Catcher Giver-Reciever * if i'm wrong i'l feel so stupid:eusa_doh:*
i kinda really wish i'd never entered this thread... but for some strange reason, i didn't stop reading after the first post. it was kinda like reading diahhorea.
>>>And the Devil finally says "Now, are you gay?" Vinny frowns and answers "NO I'm not gay! And the Devil looks down and finishes "Your gonna hate Thursdays." I was thinking of the one that ends like this: "Wow, that was incredible! I'm gonna be using that barrel every day!" "Every day but Thursday." "Why not Thursday?" "That's gonna be your day in the barrel." >>>i kinda really wish i'd never entered this thread...but for some strange reason, i didn't stop reading after the first post. it was kinda like reading diahhorea. Consider it payback for all the tampon/period/"women only" threads. Lex
And that's not even the half of it let me tell you!!! We straights are weird and wonderfull beings, maybe you should put us in zoos and come an look at us :roflmao:
Good point, we may as well go with plug and outlet. Although it sounds weird. To mix up a quote...... Or..... Guy 1 --"You have a nice ass." Guy 2 --"What, you want me to outlet for you? Sorry I'm a strict plug." We can stick with top and bottom, dontcha think?
That'll work for me! Though, your edit to "why, are you looking for someone to plug you?" is a lot more direct... 'top' and 'bottom' would be outside the typical homophobe's lexicon Okay, I've got to find out the beginning of that one! Yeah, I've got a warped sense of humor (too much Kathy Griffin?) :icon_wink
