What's with groups of bro-y straight guys being incredibly gay?

Locker room talk got very homo-erotic when I was in high-school gym, but if anyone was actually gay it would've gotten very awkward.

I heard rumours about sports-team initiations where they

(nsfw or whatever)stick a pickle in their ass and someone eats it, or the one where they cum on a cracker and last one eats it.

Did any feminist writers write about this stuff?

I read your post, and idk where exactly these things come from still. If people are afraid of seeming gay, I don't understand how that explains covering shirtless men in white goop while they cooperate to climb something phallic.

I'll comment on you linked post.

What Sedgwick argues is that on one hand these institutions mandate very intense male bonds, but on the other hand absolute forbid male sexual relationships. That's what makes this seem gay! In an imaginary society without homophobia (assuming that they still wanted to do stupid shit like this) this would actually seem less gay because men being physically intimate with each other wouldn't be so fraught. It is, ironically, the prohibition that makes this seem so incredibly gay

Sounds like a skull and bones ritual

Is this where Araki got the idea for Jojo and Ceasar scaling the grease pillar in Battle Tendency.
