Something that comes with a disclaimer every time a man compliments another man
Whenever a man feels the need to premise a compliment to another man with “I’m not gay but…” I’m instantly compelled to reply, “Because if you didn’t begin with that disclaimer I would have assumed you are?” The clarity of your sexuality isn’t compromised just because you think a person of the same sex is attractive or dresses nice. You don’t see gay men running around talking about, “I’m not straight, but that Tika Sumpter has a nice complexion.” Sounds dumb, right? Guess how it sounds when you say it.
