You heard me correctly. Comedy Central’s Tosh.0 aired a segment last night that could easily be deemed offensive - I thought it was a bit more insightful than the rest. The challenge? Tosh along with four of his colleagues, all clad in grey sweatpants, were to take Viagra, watch over an hour of gay porn and test who was the first to “pop a chubby”; a nickname for getting an erection.

Immature? Absolutely. But think about it. Aren’t we constantly telling people how we aren’t choosing to be gay? “It’s a phase, you’ll come to eventually,” “Just try it!” or “…you don’t sexually think about women, at all?!” Actually, no we don’t “pop chubbys” thinking about women for the sheer fact…we can’t. Well, some sure can but for the majority here, we can’t because we are strictly stimulated by the male sex. This little experiment, where it may be on the juvenile side shows how you either are attracted to one sex or you aren’t. Dennis Ayers from After Elton posted: It’s sort of subversive because, given that, why the hell does anyone have a problem with far tamer gay imagery? Doesn’t Tosh’s silly experiment make complaining about gay marriage, gay men kissing on TV, or gays holding hands on the street seem even sillier? I think maybe it does.

I couldn’t agree more.
