It's gay to walk quickly. It's gay to take your own bags to the shops. It's gay to have empathy.
Holy shit there are a lot of people out there who are very insecure with themselves.

lol what? I’ve never heard this stereotype.
Nor have I, but I guess this definitely rules out being gay based on my walking speed lol.
Apparently I'm fascistly gay.
If we're going by stereotypes, the straights should be striding purposefully, laser focused on getting to the building site or gun range.
The gays should be sauntering slowly in painfully tight Italian loafers.
I first heard it maybe 10 years ago, and it's become a lot more prevalent, once you start to notice it (obviously not all gay guys but a lot do) then you kind of take up the joke too. I've always been told I walk too fast, now I know why.
Pythagoras claim that walking in a straight line is the fastest way has been debunked. Walking in a gay line is faster.
fellas, is it gay to walk quickly?
I hope not. I usually walk quickly, with purpose. I hate these types that can best be described as "waddling". Just like a sloth cosplaying as a duck. And somehow they manage to just stand in doorways, and block isles. Meanwhile I'm in my head thinking "HEY FUCKFACE!!! MOVE YOUR FUCKING ASS!!!"
And then I wonder if I might have anger management issues. Then I realized I haven't punched anyone in a really long time, so that's close enough to managed anger. So that means these wastes of space really are that annoying to walk behind. Shopping doesn't have to take 2 hours. You can be in and out in like 10 minutes. You just gotta know what you're buying, and where it is. But then these types just.....exist.
So I just want everyone to know, that if you could lose a race to a snail, I want you to know that everyone hates you. If you're going to walk this slow, just get a mobility scooter. Maybe you'll be faster on wheels. Which means out of my way faster. And really, that's the ultimate goal here, right? Getting everyone out of my way. I think that's a goal everyone should work towards. That, and finding someone willing to bring me cheese regularly.
I really like cheese.
But also, I'm not gay. I had no idea speed was gay? Then again, I don't notice these things. I'm always the last to know if someone is gay. I didn't realize Richard Simmons was gay until 1995. I got made fun of for not knowing. And that's how I found out.
Fast and bi-curious?
Unidentified submersible bearing 323, moving at gay walking speed. -Das Boot maybe
Set course bearing 323, full gay ahead!
It’s a long held belief or stereotype that gay men walk faster than straight men
It is? Is this some commonly known stereotype that I just missed hearing about?
TIL I might be gay, couldn't possibly be adhd or anxiety. Kind of a weird way to find out but alright
Yeah I think this is an AI hallucination. I've heard or seen this. And I've been a very fast walker, I blame mine on ADHD or autism.
Move, I’m gay.
I guess “city walking” makes me gay? Is this what they mean by “metrosexual”? Idfk anymore lol
TIL I'm gay. Great, now I've got to tell my wife I suppose.
The fuck does walking speed have to do with orientation? Do men get less gay as they get older and slow down?
Unexpected?
I appreciate all the funny comments about the gay tie-in, but the "unexpected health benefits" of WALKING is the dumbest attempt at clickbaitizing a headline that I've seen in a while.
I never heard of this as "gay." Though my girlfriend and I (female) both walk pretty damn fast, so maybe there's something to it.
It's a long held stereotype that gay men walk faster than straight men
Is it though? This is the first I've heard of it
The faster walking speed is so that I can be a bottom sooner and for a longer time.
It’s unexpected that exercising with higher cardiovascular output is associated with health benefits?
Brisk walking places greater demand on the heart, lungs, and muscles than slower walking.
The article ignores causality to make our walking speed this quirky thing. In reality our heart beats faster because of historical trauma and hypervigilance, which the body automatically converts into increased walking speed. It might be adaptive but it's not fun constantly looking over your shoulder to watch for danger.
I guess I'm gay when I'm angry?
That's not true, I've always been told I walk too fast and I'm straight, Ish.
If u walk fast u gay
Can confirm, am bisexual. Regularly stuck behind slow walkers but not fast enough to overtake fast walkers.
Got to commit to being gay instead so you can have the extra speed for the overtakes.
