1. What is the six beer theory? link had no explantaion.

n/t

[Andy_Stephenson]

7. Click the beer can marked

"Next"

[Nlighten1]

2. Happens all the time...

not...

:)

[Occulus]

8. but it does happen...

...and I know this from personal experience. Several experiences, actually, and none... *none* were initiated by me, the gay guy.

All the alcohol-related str8/gay sexual encounters I've ever had involve the "straight" man approaching *me*. This only after consuming large amounts of alcohol.

The excuses range from trying anything once to hoping they're too drunk to remember. Yup- I even woke up in bed with one.... in a twin bed, no less.

People, this is true in many more cases than most straight men will admit.

[Andy_Stephenson]

11. But after 6 budweisers?

6 Budweisers is like 6 12 oz servings of colored water.

[Occulus]

17. I don't know....

I get quite drunk after six Buds. I get even more buzzed after a single bud.

Yup, they're two different substances. :)

[Dookus]

43. i will confirm...

everything kgfnally says.

[novalox]

3. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

It might take six beers to skew orientation that much -- but at my age, alcohol's "great prevaricator" effect kicks in and makes me fall asleep after about #4. :)

[Andy_Stephenson]

12. Welcome to DU

Wow your first post on my thread...I feel honored.

[Booberdawg]

4. LOL!

[La_Serpiente]

5. THAT'S THE FUNNIEST SHIT I'VE EVER HEARD

AND I'M GAY!!!! gee...I wonder...I don't know, BUT THAT'S FUCKING FUNNY ASS SHIT DUDE!!!

[Andy_Stephenson]

6. Glad you liked it...

I thought it was funny as shit too! I was rolling here.

[Occulus]

9. The thing is...

...I can't tell if it's all a joke, or if they actually did do this.

[Andy_Stephenson]

10. It's a joke

Im sure.

[Occulus]

13. Still.....

I'd kinda like to test this in reality once. Ya know, just to see if it works with TWO str8 men, vs. knowing it works (that personal experience thing) between one who's str8 and one who's known to be gay.

If one guy is gay, one is str8, and they both get sloshed and go "back to my place for a nightcap"... well... things do indeed happen, and in my experience more often than not. And again, *I* didn't broach the subject in my experiences... the drunk str8 guy did. Every time.

[Andy_Stephenson]

15. My best Male straight friend...

Came onto me once...and as much as I wanted to go there. I didn't because.

1 I have Termite

2 His friendship is more important than sex.

[Occulus]

18. umm...

"I have Termite"

Huh??

[Blue-Jay]

20. Maybe he has a wooden leg?

[Andy_Stephenson]

42. Pun...

intended?

[Blue-Jay]

44. Haha! Unintended.

However, you may take it as you like! :D

[Andy_Stephenson]

38. Termite is my other half

been with me for 17 years now.

[Droopy]

14. It'd take a lot more than six beers to get me to do that

Now that I think about it, I don't think there's anything that could get me to do that.

[Occulus]

16. I somehow doubt....

...that that would be completely true if your judgement is screwed sideways by a large amount of alcohol. But then, as you imply, you'd likely pass out before "going the extra mile", so to speak.

Most of the "straight" men I've ever met actually would engage in some sort of same-sex activity, given the motivation to do so. Most, but not all. And the experiences I related to above, again, were not initiated by me, but rather by men I wouldn't ever have suspected of even being "curious".

Yes, Virginia, there really is some truth to this. :)

[Blue-Jay]

22. I dunno....

I've been piss-drunk around my gay friends many times, but never really found them to be attractive. None of my piss-drunk friends have ever come on to me either.

The link was funny, but I doubt it was meant to be considered as having much truth to it.

[Occulus]

33. I guess maybe it depends

on a couple of other factors as well. The only times it's ever happened to me were in situations where the str8 guy knew he woulodn't be found out, knew I wouldn't talkabout it- even to him in private- and knew I wouldn't make any moves of my own afterward.

Maybe it just depends on what you think you can safely get away with.

[Droopy]

23. I've been seriously drunk on many an occasion

Mostly with my straight friends and I've never had the thought or desire occur to me to have sex with them. I'm not doubting you when you say you've had experiences with guys who consider themselves straight, I'm just saying it ain't me.

[Nlighten1]

24. It is wishful thinking on the gay mans part...

You aren't going to change a straight guy with a few beers...

[Occulus]

30. Change? No.

And the men I've had this exact experience with all profess to be str8 to this day.

Kinda like, if I slept with a woman once, would that "change" me, even to bisexual? I somehow doubt it. Would I want to do it again? Well, that's contingent on doing it in the first place, isn't it?

on edit: it's not wishful thinking, either; for me, it's a personally experienced fact.

[Johnyawl]

19. But does it work the other way?

Are six beers enough to make a gay guy try women?

That was just too funny!

[Occulus]

21. I wouldn't know.

But it's an interesting idea to file away. I personally have never slept with the opposite sex.

And I'm 28. Maybe it's time.

That said, if I *am* going to do so, I'd rather not have alcohol involved the first time around. Now, a good blunt.... that's another story. The sad fact is that pot doesn't screw with your judgement in the same way alcohol does.

That said, yes, I do think it can work the other way.

[greatauntoftriplets]

25. I can't see why anyone would drink that poor excuse for beer.

Budweiser is the height of uncool. It is :puke:

[Blue-Jay]

26. They used Bud

Because it's the stereotypical redneck guy beer of choice. Again, that's a comedy link, not a scientific study of actual behaviour.

[Occulus]

28. Oh, I know.

There's nothing at all scientific about it. However, they also hit the nail on the proverbial head. While it's not always true, I give this behavior even odds.

[Occulus]

27. Bud is

my favorite *commercial* beer.

If you've never tried it, I would recommend Bell's. It's a microbrew right here in Kalamazoo.

[greatauntoftriplets]

29. Ever try Chimay?

An ale brewed by Belgian monks. Mmmmm.

[Occulus]

31. Monkbrewed ale...

Sounds yummy. Monks and monasteries always produce some of the finest food products when they do it at all.

[Blue-Jay]

35. I'll admit to drinking Bud on occasion.

It's a good beer for when you're doing yardwork or any other hot-weather outdoor activity. Mostly because it's not too unlike water.

I don't want to turn this into a beer-thread, but lately, I've become a big fan of Molings red ale (Irish import). Good stuff; not too filling, but smooth and tasty without the traditional English bitterness.

Back on topic: Beer doesn't make me gay. Sure, I'll hug my friends and tell them how much I love them, but that's not gay. That's just drunk.

:D

[arwalden]

32. Yep... That's Happened To Me

That's how I seduce straight guys all the time. Beer is the bait and I lure them into my sexual trap.

That's why I keep an extra refrigerator full of beer. They keep coming back. LOL

[Occulus]

34. Funny.

And isn't Crighton a *total* hottie, anyway? :D

[La_Serpiente]

36. I hope your joking.

[Occulus]

37. Nope.

But that pic just doesn't do him justice.

Hey, so what if I like the rough n tumble types. :D

[Andy_Stephenson]

39. Ben Browder is such a

HUNK

[Ivory_Tower]

40. I wouldn't change my orientation

You're talking about the "Drinks Budwieser" orientation, right?
There's no way I'd do that...can't drink one can of that crap, nevermind six.

:)

[hussar]

41. What a load of bollocks !

It's impossible to get drunk on 6 buds

[Padraig18]

45. I do!

I know from personal experience that *many* otherwise straight guys will 'fool around' to some degree or another (usually 'the whole way'), given enough alcohol. Please note, I did not say 'all', I said 'many'. I will not reveal names, however... :evilgrin:

PS--- One encounter gave birth to my all-time favorite 'cigarette after' verbal exchange; after we had done 'the deed', I asked Mr. X if 'it' had hurt, and he replied "No. Was it supposed to?" :P

[Deja Q]

46. That is such a fairy story!

They'd only do it with each other though...

And it's just shocking how they avoided the details of the so-called "lovemaking"!

[Padraig18]

47. Kick

[greatauntoftriplets]

48. Padraig18,

you have a great sig line. Pearse's speech. Thanks. I imagine you recognize my sig line.

[Padraig18]

50. TY!

Indeed I do-- a classic! :thumbsup:

[greatauntoftriplets]

51. O'Donovan Rossa was a great man.

So was Pearse, etc. I have been to Ireland several times and know you are from there. Happy to have you in Illinois.

[Padraig18]

52. TY again!

What part of IL are you in?

[greatauntoftriplets]

53. I am in Chicago.

We have DU get-togethers here, we will let you know next time we have one.

[Padraig18]

56. Great!

I grew up in Oak Lawn, although I live downstate now.

[trigz]

49. How anyone can get pissed on that...well, piss, is beyond me...

...Budweiser must simply be the worst beer ever to be unleashed upon us poor subjects.

Then again, as I've experienced for the umpteenth time tonight, the Norwegian beer Frydenlund offers proper, alcohol-fuelled fun, coupled with the Norwegian national team beating Luxembourg 1-0 in football (although after a dreadful, horrible match...cue said beer...)

Sleep well, my dear Americans :)

[Nikia]

54. I'm not a guy

Maybe women are different. I got drunk before a sorority formal and heavily flirted with a lesbian member's girlfriend although she started it. Nothing happened because both my husband and her girlfriend were there and I don't know if I'd have gone that far. I have had alcohol make me think people were attractive that I wouldn't normally find attractive. I have never done anything sexual under the influence of alcohol that I would not normally do and tend to be less sexual when it comes to actually doing the deed.

[2cents]

55. LOL

I'm thinking what Bud's competitors could do with this - "Bud makes you gay". Gay frogs, etc.

[Aristus]

57. Nope. I used to hang around with the gay crowd in Louisville, and

we had a blow-the-doors-off party one night. A gay friend of mine cornered me on the stairs when we were both pretty well blitzed and propositioned me. I told him, smashed or sober, that just wasn't for me. He was the sweetest, nicest guy in the world, and I hated turning him down. Man, it was weird, saying, 'we can just be friends' to a guy.

Later, I went upstairs and got it on with a cute chick who looked like Lisa Loeb. Life's been good to me.
