A man ordering gin & tonic is a known turn off / red flag to women?

They actually all taste different.

Which ones taste gay?

The stereotypes are so funny.

My problematicly straight dad was an Anglophile.

A straight male colleague of my husband loves fruity drinks and ordered a cosmo the first time we met; he’s famous and I still remember this.

You do not understand statistics.

In a recent survey 25 percent of the gay respondents stated that Gin is their preferred liquor, while only 10 percent of the surveyed straight men named Gin.

That doesn’t mean all gay men like Gin. That doesn’t mean anyone who drinks Gin is gay.
But it means that there is a higher probability that if you prefer Gin, you are gay.

No, you don’t understand statistics. There are nine times as many straight men as gay men. So if a given man prefers gin, there is a 78 percent chance he is straight.

First, do not quote a "recent survey" without a supporting link. Next, how big is the sample size of the total respondents, and were the respondents selected at random, or were they men who posted a response to a question? This "survey" could be based on ten men responding to a question online (or the same man posting ten responses).

The fact that there are nine times as many straight men as gay men is not the critical variable. The variable to test is "Of men that prefer to drink gin, how many are gay?" This test will answer the question of what the percentage chance is that a gin-drinking man is gay.

Of course, in the end, we should ask why answer such a question when the original poster was stupid for asking it?

Everyone calling Ryan Reynolds would be sitting in a chair watching their wife have sex with Ryan if she had the chance.

Speak for yourself. He’s a gay man and there is nothing attractive about that beady eyed freak.

This is what it does to my husband. He can’t/doesn’t drink it anymore because it turns him dark.

This is fascinating bc lately I’ve had the same experience - used to love gin but the post-gin angries/weepies made me quit it! Whiskey seems to be ok and I like that too, so I’ve stuck with it.

This whole thread honestly confuses me. I can’t imagine judging what drink a person orders; I’m much more concerned with how they approach alcohol, drinking moderately, etc.

That seems way too high even at that ratio. Supposedly around 2% or less of the population is gay.

Wow, NP, but never seen those ads.
That is really bad look. Advertising Execs on that account should be fired.

But I'd never think a guy ordering a G&T to be gay just because of that drink.
Hemingway's favorite drink was cheap G&T's and he was manly AF.

But yeah that look in those pictures, with those dorky glasses and clothes, ick!

Anyone as focused on effeminate stereotypes is hiding deep in the closet. You can come out now. It is 2025, so come out into the light and put that Kevin Bacon poster on your wall.

Everyone around you knows, including your "wife".
