    Does anyone get offended when someone uses the term "No homo" to prove that they didn't mean any homosexual intent?

    To me It just makes no sense why guys have to be so paranoid about 'loving' each other in case It's seen as gay. It's like me saying 'I love you Mom, no incest!'

    Nah. I use "no hetero/homo" sometimes, too. Like if I'm trying to tell a guy that he has a nice butt, I'll tack a good ol' "no hetero" at the end of my sentence. Or if I want to tell a girl that she looks hot without making it look like I'm trying to get with her then I'll use "no homo." I actually think it's a good way to not send mixed signals.

    I find it offensive. It's like they think being gay is a bad thing.

    I find it offensive as well, for all of the reasons stated above. The person should be comfortable enough to say something and not worry about their sexuality.

    I really hate the term. Though sometimes I do like to make fun of it by using the term "no hetero" :wink:

    This term came from the show the boondocks , and was popularized after Edd and Rumi started using it , they were the only straight guys that were brave enough to say they loved each other until Riley came and messed things up calling them gay then they invited the No homo stuff . I don't like the term but it makes me wonder are straight men that insecure

    I think it's stupid and shows they are cowardly and insecure for fearing that someone might accuse them of being gay. I'm not afraid when people think I'm heterosexual, I just correct them. I don't give out hugs much, but I wouldn't hug a girl and say "No hetero", or hug an animal and say "No bestiality" and I wouldn't hug a family member and say "No incest", even though I'm not heterosexual, or someone who does beastialty or incest. So I think the phrase "No homo" is really a great indication of how ignorant, cowardly, and insecure whoever says it is. I also wouldn't go up to a guy I like, hug him, and say "Yes homo". That is just idiotic in every sense.

    It doesn't offend me, but I just wonder why someone would be so insecure about their own sexuality that they would need to add that.

    It never bothered me before when I lived in a mental state of denial, but now that I've kinda accepted that I'm not completely straight...it kinda hurts. Drives me deeper into the closet because I feel like it's a sign of nonacceptance.

    I just find it funny that people think they need to say that. I don't find it offensive, then again I rarely am offended by anything other than personal insults.

    Ironically, though, one of my lesbian friends thought I was straight as a line because I never say "no homo" when I say I love a guy as a friend (even when I was in denial) and she took that as firm confidence in my straight-ness or something.

    It isn't as offensive to me as it is stupid. You would think they would be secure enough in their sexuality to compliment a same sex friend without having to say it.
