It’s unexpected that exercising with higher cardiovascular output is associated with health benefits?
It’s a long held belief or stereotype that gay men walk faster than straight men
It is? Is this some commonly known stereotype that I just missed hearing about?
Yeah I think this is an AI hallucination. I’ve heard or seen this. And I’ve been a very fast walker, I blame mine on ADHD or autism.
Guurl, we have got places to be! Hello?!
I’ve never heard about this either. It’s probably much more regional or something?
TIL I might be gay, couldn’t possibly be adhd or anxiety. Kind of a weird way to find out but alright

Unexpected?
I appreciate all the funny comments about the gay tie-in, but the “unexpected health benefits” of WALKING is the dumbest attempt at clickbaitizing a headline that I’ve seen in a while.
I don’t know if gay guys walk faster but i have noticed when me and my friends walk together we walk way faster than when i’m alone. Does that mean we’re all gay?/s
Nah just means you want to kiss your friends.
Underlying homoerotic tension
“Underlying”
Overt homoerotic tension is reserved for world-class sprinters I believe
Maybe I am a gay
Is it really unexpected that getting more exercise makes you healthier
Republicans on their way to make gaywalking a crime.
Pythagoras claim that walking in a straight line is the fastest way has been debunked. Walking in a gay line is faster.
Walking in a gay conga line reaches warp speed and emits sparkles.
underrated comment
Fast and bi-curious?
Bike-curious?
Had a bike shop here called bikurious. Great name, they used to get all my business.
TIL I’m gay. Great, now I’ve got to tell my wife I suppose.
First you must answer: at what temperature do you drink your coffee?
I have no clue tbh, as long as it’s warm.
Aw, see that’s the thing. Gay people drink their coffee iced.
I am intermittently gay.
Everyone’s gay this month. It’s okay.
However, if you are in a committed relationship right now, that takes precedence over your gayness and theirs too
Amen to that. My wife and I are both mostly gay, but we’re straight for each other.
I’m gay all summer, baby.
lol what? I’ve never heard this stereotype.
I must be the gayest mf alive, TIL
I first heard it maybe 10 years ago, and it’s become a lot more prevalent, once you start to notice it (obviously not all gay guys but a lot do) then you kind of take up the joke too. I’ve always been told I walk too fast, now I know why.
Nor have I, but I guess this definitely rules out being gay based on my walking speed lol.
Apparently I’m fascistly gay.
Goosestepping at a brisk pace?
If we’re going by stereotypes, the straights should be striding purposefully, laser focused on getting to the building site or gun range.
The gays should be sauntering slowly in painfully tight Italian loafers.
Tip: Swinging your hips reduces movement speed by 10%
It’s been a stereotype for a while. There are a few articles/memes out there about it, at least since the late 2010’s:
https://www.gq.com/story/move-im-gay
https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2019/06/stereotype-lgbtq-walk-faster-straights-unexpected-benefit/
Brisk walking places greater demand on the heart, lungs, and muscles than slower walking.
The article ignores causality to make our walking speed this quirky thing. In reality our heart beats faster because of historical trauma and hypervigilance, which the body automatically converts into increased walking speed. It might be adaptive but it’s not fun constantly looking over your shoulder to watch for danger.
Not everyone walking fast is experiencing trauma flashbacks. Sometimes I’m just impatient and want to get where I’m going.
Unidentified submersible bearing 323, moving at gay walking speed. -Das Boot maybe
ALAAAAAAAAAAAARMMMMMM!!!
More like Dis Booty lmao
Set course bearing 323, full gay ahead!
Suction on After Trim, gay venting.
Move, I’m gay.
I’m getting there at the speed of gay!
Nice to meet you gay, I’m moved
The fuck does walking speed have to do with orientation? Do men get less gay as they get older and slow down?
Dunno, but it’s a common trope among gay men to walk at light speed. I’m incredibly guilty of this. The “move, bitch, I’m gay” struggle is real.
