[Closed] Can gay men whistle?

Only in the presence of Sailors.

Bloke at work whistles incessantly and he seems straight

I heard that they muck about and attract enemy radar.

It wasn't any spy novel, it was The Man With The Golden Gun by Ian Fleming. The idea was that Scaramanga was gay as he couldn't whistle.

The profile (read by M) also delves into his background and psyche. Among other things, the profile claims that Scaramanga might be a latent homosexual, since he cannot whistle - based on the popular (but unfounded) theory that a man who cannot whistle has homosexual tendencies.

In British Columbia?

Coming up next...

Can white men jump? 😉

On a treadmill?

But pixies are absolutely real.

I've got beard. And I don't trust myself.

Ian Fleming...whilst I'm aware he was "Of his time"

he was a racist homophomic mysoginistic bigoted antisemetic ****

So Ian Fleming would have fitting nicely as a member of are esteemed group STW then hahahahhahaa

Can gay dogs hear dog whistles?
I do know that bi-curious white cats are deaf and can't look up.

In all seriousness I met a French tour guide a while ago who insisted that black people do so well in athletics because they have a different spinal structure.
His wife was a GP and believed the same thing.
😐

Can gay dogs hear dog whistles?

Only wolf whistles.

There may be something in this. I have a test for you, stick a finger in your mouth (or maybe a carrot of courgette if you have one handy) and try whistling.

Ian Fleming used to make up all sorts of shit in the bond books, apparently sumo wrestlers 'massage their testicles so they ascend into their bodies through the inguinal canal from which they originally descended' supposedly so it didn't hurt if kicked in the plums

Totally made up.

So why do they massage their testicles? 🙂

Same reason you massage yours,...

Hang on, sumo wrestlers massage dog's testicles?

I know the Japanese love Shinty, one hell of a tough game, but I had no idea about this.

The dirty, dirty.......

He voted Brexit?

So Ian Fleming would have fitting nicely as a member of are esteemed group STW then hahahahhahaa

I feel like I am missing something....apart from the ability to whistle with a carrot in my mouth.

He voted Brexit?

Not everyone who voted out is a racist.

Boom! That's this interesting thread contaminated.

So if a sumo massaged my testicles and I enjoyed it would I lose the ability to whistle?

Not necessarily:

Assuming you are a hetroaexual male in the first place.

You could be a celebate asexual gibbon, gifted the ability to type by a wandering shaman.

He could spel, though.

A definitive answer from John Barrowman.......

Who knew? lady Sumo. Goes off to hunt specialist videos.

What about Lesbians ?

Can Transgender persons whistle two different tunes at the same time?

Very poor even by fatmiddleagedconservativetrackworld standards.

No, but all Eunuchs can play the Glockenspiel.

I thought this was a thread about how erroneous attitudes and stereotyping of LGBT people has changed in the last 60 odd years?

I'm sure no offence is intended by anyone.

Can gay men whistle?

Yes, it's farting that they have trouble with 😉

Ann Summers launch new range of sex toys.......

I'm sure no offence is intended by anyone.

[Feels temporary need to be serious]

I hope not, I assumed that we had reached the stage where we can joke about this sort of thing and everyone realises the butt of the joke is the person making the anti whistling assumption (Fleming in this case) rather than anyone unable to express their gaiety with a little wind assisted lip action.

Very poor even by fatmiddleagedconservativetrackworld standards.

I don't this thread means what you think it does.

Edit: Hmm. Reading one or two comments, maybe it does. 😐

If only I was that interesting.

Then departed Pau-Puk-Keewis, Whistling, singing through the forest, Whistling gayly to the squirrels, Who from hollow boughs above him Dropped their ...

Longfellow (ooerr) thought so.

😯

everyone realises the butt of the joke

He whistles at the start of this so no, not true.

I'm not really homophonic, but sometimes I sound like I am.

I'm not homophobic. I really love my house.

I don't remember my mate Tony (sadly passed) ever whistling, and his blow job technique was lacking something too IME

Class episode.

Is Axl gay? I thought his interest in buns stopped at "cream". 😀

— can’t quite believe I actually just tried to see if it was true… (it’s not)

Rachel

I'm sure the sumo/martial artiste testi thing is true! Something to do with chi, no massaging though.

— can’t quite believe I actually just tried to see if it was true… (it’s not)

Bet you can lick your elbow though, something gay men definitely can't do.

I can't whistle so am I allowed to be gay now? My wife has been doing my head in lately so I like the idea of living with a guy where I would hopefully get a straightforward answer to a straightforward question.

I would hopefully get a straightforward answer to a straightforward question.

You've clearly never met a gay man.

IME women are considerably less drama 😀

I live with a wonderful woman who is very straightforward.. Does this mean that she's a lesbian?

I'm sure the sumo/martial artiste testi thing is true!

According to this it's rumour started by none other than... Ian Fleming!

http://www.japanprobe.com/2007/02/08/do-sumos-really-retract-their-testicles-into-their-bodies/

Makes you think...

I live with a wonderful woman who is very straightforward.. Does this mean that she's a lesbian?

If she is, then you are too.

Me too Yunki.
I suspect we're a gay couple helplessly trapped in a happy hetrosexual marriage.

That would explain a lot of things 🙂

If she is, then you are too.

Oooooh good!! 🙂

Should shepherds pie be written shepherd's pie or shepherds pie. Is it a pie belonging to one shepherd or a pie for many shepherds?

Shouldn't it be Cottage pie?

errr no. Shepherds pie is lamb mince, cottage pie is beef you heathen. I bet you put carrots [i]in[/i] the pie too. 😛

Bet you can lick your elbow though, something gay men definitely can't do.

I can't lick my own elbow, but can easily lick another man's elbow.

I'm so confused right now...

Jesus! They said Brexit would propel us back in to the 1970s, i didn't realise it would be so quick.

Wait.. I thought it was something to do with the bones in the ankle - or is that rubbish too?

Physical and skeletal differences between people of different races and/or geographical areas, skull shape for example but the myth regarding basic skeletal structure seems to be eternal.

Looking forward to the new Disney tearjerker, White Frogs Can't Jump btw.

GrahamS, stop being such a fu ckwit,

I think [url= https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe%27s_law ]Poe's Law[/url] may be in full effect here.

If anything I've said offends you then re-read it in a slightly sarcastic tongue-in-cheek manner because it was certainly intended in that tone.

Except this bit obviously. This is me being serious.

Get a room funboys. 😉

I did, it didn't make it any better

Fair enough.

In that case my apologies for any offence you have taken, because none was intended.

Ok, but the problem is that it is rarely intended

Skinny jeans, white t shirt, big safety boots, hard hat, safety glasses and a tool belt,amd a large drill making noise and not one gay whistling at me, and im in a gay club hanging a door.

Looks in the multiple mirrors and realises im not that attractive, to anyone except that dog that bit me 2 weeks ago. dog as in 4 legged type.

the problem is that it is rarely intended

Isn't that a good problem to have though?
After all, not so very long ago offence would have been rarely [i]unintended[/i]. So at least progress has been made eh?

(To be honest I'm not entirely clear which bit you were offended by, so kinda difficult to modify my actions any further).

Perhaps if you had a policeman, a cowboy, and a native American to assist you? 😉

(Charlie: this is another joke referencing the dated gay stereotypes in the OP. Hope that's okay.)

Obviously they were trying to whistle at you, but couldn't.

Still no wiser. The farting gag maybe?

FWIW I was pretty much directly quoting from a very camp mate, who takes great delight in trying to embarrass the heteros by saying things like [i]"I had such a good weekend that it was Tuesday before I could fart again"[/i]. 😆

Risqué and crass, but certainly not intended to be homophobic in any way. YMMV.

cf. a woman bragging that she was left walking like a cowboy 😀

As a cowboy with a perfect gait, I resent that comment.

Sorry bongo, I'm referencing dated stereotypes of Equine-assisted Cattle Handling Operatives. 😉

Well the door on the closet has been fixed at the gay club and im home now, and no whistles, probably me making to much noise to hear them.
