Gay Men and Their Str8 Friends

"Wild Island"


There was an very interesting article in the NY Times over the weekend "Relations Between Gay and Straight Men Are Moving Away from Stereotypes". It is relevant to me as most folks misconstrue the friendship that Will and I have. Most of my contemporaries automatically assume that Will is Gay due to his mannerisms and relationship with me. This is wholly a false conception as Will is heterosexual and very into the female form. This does not preclude us from loving each other or the fact that we are best friends. In fact, some of my friends have made a bet that Will will dump me for a girl because we are not having sex. I have even been told that I am wasting my money by supporting him during his health crises because I ain't getting any dick from him. I do not consider any amount of money I have sent or spent on Will a waste of money. He is my BFF for real and always. We are as committed to each other's welfare as any two people can be. There was even a rumour going around my customer's that during my recent absence and incarceration, that Will and I had run off to get married. This really pissed me off that people assume facts not in evidence because they cannot fathom the depth of our friendship and do not believe a Gay man can be friends with a Str8 man and not bring sex into it. They are patently wrong and I do my best to educate them on the true facts of our lives. I would not trade my friendship with Will for a fast fuck (or anything else for that matter) and will continue to look after his welfare as long as I live. He has reiterated the same to me. I have been told by a good friend (who is so convinced he is always right) that Will will leave me for a girlfriend by September. I do not believe this to be so and am determined to prove him wrong, which will not be a problem as Will has no intentions of departing our mutual home. There will come a future day when he will live with or marry a girl, but he and I will never not be friends. This is fine by me, I know he loves me and I love him and our friendship is on solid footing. We have both spent many hours in conversation on theses subjects and are comfortable within our relationship with each other. Those who cannot fathom our friendship do not have to as long as they respect the fact that we are and they can do nothing about it. Fuck 'em if they cannot understand. It is our lives and our friendship that will endure beyond anything they can say or do. He is my BFF and I his, and that is all that matters to us. And we, after all, are the ones who know ourselves the best. The world could certainly use more friendships like ours. Thank you Will for everything you are and every thing you do to support me, I know you know you are loved, but it is nice to say it every once in a while.

Today we have another edition of Monday's Undies to get this week's eye candy collection underway. Until next time as always, Enjoy!
