    How closeted can you be… They kiss each other in the cheek, sometimes lips, but using a word is too much?

      That’s not really closeted. For them that’s just a greeting.

      Its like telling a football player that slapping another dude’s ass in tights is gay. (Not to mention chasing other dudes in said tights…)

      Just a different culture.

      It’s still a very closeted and homophobic culture, but that’s not why.

          Yes, I was that nerd at the state fair cheering for the robotics teams the first time the held state finals at the fair… even though I don’t have a kid, or know any of them.

          I wish I had that when I was in school. Give me battlebots any day of the week.
