I'd never heard of it before, either, and the name sounded very strange to me. I thought perhaps it has to do with the other meaning of the word "gay", as in... you either suddenly make yourself look very cheerful and dainty or you lose?

Then I read your comment and googled it and now I admit I'm actually kind of disturbed. I don't understand the mindset you have to have in order to find anything like that entertaining. It's not a matter of sexualities - and I'm asexual - it's just that touching other people this way feels inherently bad and invasive and inappropriate.

I'm coming at it from the opposite direction. How is touching someone who doesn't line up with your orientation so much different from touching anyone you're not particularly attracted to? Why do you have to make a big thing out of it because "eww gay!" when it's really not a big deal? Why not just play a really sexual game of truth or dare if you want to have fun watching people touch people they're not attracted to and forget the giant no homo hovering over the whole thing?

I probably sound a lot more offended than I really am. I'm rolling my eyes more than anything.

Oh, I agree with that, too. If it's a genuine "eww gay" sort of game, it's offensive and disturbing on multiple levels, this one included.

The nonnie below offered a pretty neat explanation, which, I suppose, makes the game and its context more understandable, but which also makes the homophobia/biphobia undertones blatant.
