BRO: the hot new app for Bros seeking Bros

Straight guys, finding a bro-job has never been easier thanks to BRO, a social networking app that caters to heteroflexible dudes seeking bromances… and other things.

“BRO goes beyond using labels, and is for men that are interested in meeting other men,” the description reads. “It’s as simple as that. Just sign up, and start looking for new bros!”

Related: More And More Straight Guys Are Giving Each Other “Bro-Jobs”

The app allows users to search for potential bros, chat, mark their favorites, and even “Fistbump” one another.

“If you know what you’re looking for,” the app promises, “BRO will help you find it.”

Jane Ward, whose bestselling book Not Gay: Sex Between Straight White Men caused a media frenzy last summer, says BRO further supports her theory that straight-identifying men engage in homosexual behaviors a lot more often than people might think.

“This kind of product serves as more evidence that the labels ‘gay’ and ‘bisexual’ do not capture all of the ways that men want to make intimate contact with other men, whether emotionally or sexually,” Ward tells Queerty.

Related: CDC Survey Finds A Surprising Number Of Straight Dudes Have Had Gay Sex

Ward then points to the recent CDC study that found 2.8 percent of straight-identifying men admitted to having oral or anal sex with another man.

“This may seem like a small figure, but for comparison’s sake, it is roughly equivalent to the number of Americans who are Jewish,” Ward says. “With this kind of data in mind, products like the BRO don’t seem so ridiculous. They are responding to a fairly common human behavior.”

You're sad and pathetic men. You're homosexuals and you don't want to be, but there's nothing you can do to change it. Not all the prayers to your god, not all the analysis you can buy in all the years you've go left to live. You may one day be able to know a heterosexual life if you want it desperately enough. If you pursue it with the fervor with which you annihilate. But you'll always be homosexual as well. Always, Bros. Always. Until the day you die.

What is so threatening about men CHOOSING to be with other men? Not a biologically determined outcome but a personal individual identity choice? Is that very threatening or menacing or frightening, that a man could choose to be gay? Does that deserve to be treated with exclusion from social participation, whether from gay subcultures or dominant cultures? Does a man have to prove that he is biologically gay rather than gay by choice in order to deserve to be accepted into societies, or should he be accepted into free and open society regardless of whether he was born gay or chooses to be gay?

Do not be ridiculous, R65. Have you gone to a nightclub on a Friday or Saturday night? Most girls will open their legs to anything nowadays. Men have never had it easier to get all kinds o sex from women... If a man is looking for another man to sexually satisfy him, he isn't anywhere near straight regardless of whether he called himself a bro, a potato or a truck.

And R56, the notion is threatening because homosexuality has always been regarded as an unnatural perversion at worst, and a mental illness or character flaw at best. Bisexual men can choose to identify as gay while whining about bi erasure, but we homosexual people are just born as we are, and there is no need to put our sexuality in doubt just because someone wants to engage in a futile exercise of pseudo-intellectual self-indulgence. Besides, who in their right mind would chose to be regarded as less than, discriminated, rejected and attacked? Come on, do not be stupid.

My friends and I always say that one of the reasons apps like Grindr are so popular is that they allow closet cases (and cheating gays) to join up without ever having to reveal who they are. Hence all the blank profiles or photos of trees or random body parts.

Not to mention torsos of porn stars or fitness models because who's really going to notice in a dark room.

I don't get why more straight guys don't use grindr. I mean, once married, the wife probably isn't going to deliver any more blow jobs. And all the ladies on Craigslist want to get paid to do it. Then, there's a large number of men who would LOVE to take care it for them without wanting anything in exchange. The straight guy gets a blow job; the gay guy gets to manhandle a masc guy's tool. Seems like a win-win situation.

Here is a review of it.

"Once I am set, a grid of hopefuls show up — I am slightly disappointed. It’s a sea of men I’ve blocked on Grindr, long forgotten exes, a few friends and men I’ve always seen around but never spoken to."

The reviewer sends a message to a man identifying as straight:

I wait for 10 minutes. I wait for an hour. I wait for a whole day. He never replies, killing my sitcom dreams even before we can shoot a pilot.

The next day...

Still reeling from the rebuttal, I open my Bro with no new expectations. The app doesn’t disappoint — apart from two requests for my sexual preference, my message inbox is emptier than my heart. I switch off, vowing to never come back again.

I will leave aside the fact that guys who would go to this site want to have sex with men...but these comments kind of make my head hurt.

The reason straight men don't usually want head from gay men is IT IS NOT A TURN ON FOR THEM. Would a gay man just fall to his knees and suck a trans dick just because it's a dick...even though it's attached to a 36-25-36 figure with cascading hair? A rare few might, but most would not because the female form IS NOT A TURN ON FOR THEM. Would a top want to mount a muscular bubble butt....attached to a woman? Most probably NOT. It's just not their thing.

I used to be hurt when straight men I had crushes on wouldn't go further with me...but WHY would I expect them to? Why would I think that would be arousing to them? I do not have a female body, and that's what they like. Just as we like male bodies - - that is what we like. Which is why we don't settle for sex with those who appear female....even if they have a great ass or a dick.
