Why do straight girls touch each other?

[JohnReedLOL2]

The other day I was at a concert. These two girls were touching each other a lot. Like holding each other and laying their head on the other's shoulder and sitting so close together their thighs were touching. About a week ago I saw two dudes sitting that close together on a bench, but when I overheard their conversation, those two dudes were gay. I thought that maybe these two girls were gay, but then I overheard them whispering about how hot a guy was. If those girls are not gay, why do they do that?

I can't believe guys don't know this already. That's code, man. It's woman code. When we do that we're sending each other signals through the air so other women can sense it too. It's crazy. I can feel the hairs on the back of my neck stand up right now as I'm typing this. That code is an ancient language used on the planet Krypton. Have you ever heard of Kryptonite? Well, the code creates Kryptonite so that we can later forge weapons from it to attack our enemies. I thought all men knew this...

because we're not shamed for showing we care like guys are, a guy can't do that without being called gay by another dude
it's men and their macho attitude's fault

[ThatGuyVinny]

have you seen the strap on question, women shame men if they don't fit there masculine ideal more than other men do tbh

[JohnReedLOL2]

Other guys don't shame me and women don't shame me. It's just that I'm not sexually attracted to men, so I don't want to do those things.

[Opinion Owner]

ThatGuyVinny I don't know anyone who does that and I also know two friends who have used strap ons on guys lol
JohnReedLOL2 the things is that being affectionate doesn't necessarily relate to anything sexual. I hug my gfs and sometimes we even cuddle and watch a movie (esp when they feel down) but I'm not sexually attracted to them either

[JohnReedLOL2]

You're not sexually attracted to them, but you're also not sexually repelled by them.

[Opinion Owner]

what is that supposed to mean? lmao I'm not repelled by a friend, if I were repelled by them I wouldn't care nor be affectionate -still not sexually attracted-

[JohnReedLOL2]

-- What is that supposed to mean?

It means that if you had a friend who was a girl who was bigger than you and she invited you to sit on her lap, you wouldn't jump back the way I would if I had a friend who was bigger than me invite me to sit on his lap.

The funny thing about this is that my reaction to a friend who is bigger than me inviting me to sit on his lap is the same reaction that I think that a woman who didn't want me to fuck her would have if I invited her to sit on my lap. Like maybe the reason it is like that is because women really don't mind the thought of another woman fucking her, so that's why she's okay with sitting on another woman's lap, but a guy SUPER TOTALLY has a problem with a dude fucking him, so he's not okay with it. And when it comes to a girl sitting on a dude's lap, her willingness (or lack of willingness) to sit is dependent on whether or not she is okay with him having sex with her.

[Opinion Owner]

well I disagree with that, I've sat on male friends laps (on his legs, not his crotch,) and female friends too, the difference between us is that I don't relate it to something sexual like you do
so I'm right with the macho attitude thing: if you do certain things you think it's gay-ish because for some reason you relate it to being sexually attracted even something silly like what those two women were doing

[JohnReedLOL2]

IT'S NOT OUR ATTITUDE. IT'S THE WAY WE FEEL. Let me explain sexual repulsion to you another way. Let's say you had a friend and she turned to you, tore open her leggings exposing her private parts, pointed to them, and said "lick". That's how I would react if a dude asked me to sit on his lap or go to the bathroom with him.

[Opinion Owner]

no it's not, it's the culture and the way you were raised and you're relating a non-sexual activity with something sexual
we don't lick each other's vaginas in the bathroom we just talk and check our makeup -so not sexual-

[JohnReedLOL2]

The fact of the matter is that two dudes naked in a locker room is kind of sexual. And two dudes sitting on one another's lap is kind of sexual. Like it might kind of sort of turn me on, but I really don't want it. It's very uncomfortable. Like if it weren't sexual, I wouldn't care. I would be sitting on a dude's crotch bouncing up and down with no reaction.

It isn't about the culture. If you are a straight girl, two girls licking each other's vaginas is kind of sexual. You're not gay, but it just is. In real life you don't do it, but if you watch it you can get turned on by it.

With guys, if I see a guy and he's big and muscular and has a beard and he's sitting and I see him from behind, I can imagine sitting on his lap and it would be kind of sexual to imagine. You don't actually do it, but... I don't know.

[Weird_girl_101]

Best friends are always close like that. Some best friends even get changed together because as girls getting that close is normal.

[JohnReedLOL2]

Why do you think it's normal? How do you think a straight guy would feel if another straight guy asked him to go to the bathroom together with him?

[JohnReedLOL2]

Or if a small straight guy sat on the lap of a bigger straight guy who he was friends with. Or if a bigger straight guy tapped his thighs to invite a smaller straight guy to come sit on his lap. Me personally it would feel super weird to sit on another guy's lap, even if we were friends.

[Weird_girl_101]

It's a girl thing to do that.

[Spongebob1235]

I guess im the odd one out. im not even keen on a hug from a friend

[JohnReedLOL2]

How would you feel if another girl [who you knew] asked you "Hey. Do you need to go to the bathroom? I need to go to the bathroom. Let's go to the bathroom." Or if another girl who was your friend (a little smaller than you) sat on your lap. Would either of those things feel a little weird?

[Spongebob1235]

the bathroom - it would depend where we were. simply because i feel uncomfortable in some places.
as for sitting on my lap, i would tell them to gtfo

[JohnReedLOL2]

That really is different from most girls/women. The website says you are 30 years old. Did you become more like that as you got older, or were you always like that? Do you think that maybe you were in some way less feminine or less straight than other women?

[Spongebob1235]

im definitely straight, im not a touchy feely person, unless with a man im dating or in a relationship with.
i think a lot of women do it because its whats 'suppose' to be done. to be fair, there are a lot of women i know who dont do it

[Spongebob1235]

I've always been this way

[RiceCrust]

Because like Louis CK straight males are the only are the only group of people who don't want to be seen as gay. They make it a point to say "I'm a man and I'm not gay!" So anything that resembles gay activities we avoid like a cancer. Woman on the other hand don't care if people think they're lesbians. So they'll do what ever intimate thing with what ever person if they like them enough as a person, friend, or significant other.

[WeirdoWerdo]

More attached? Guys don't do these stuff coz we in secret don't care much about the other guy.

[Royalsarcasist]

Bisexuals exist. I'm one, guys are can be hot and so can women.

[JustRollTheDice]

You just do that with your friends

[JohnReedLOL2]

Maybe guys don't do that because it feels awkward and girl's just don't have that same awkward feeling with their friends.

[JustRollTheDice]

Yeah best summary

[pooper89]

We're different than guys. You can't make that kind of comparison

[ken718]

Cause they're girls I don't like dudes touching me

[Lumberman53]

girls are more intimate than guys
