Gays with too many houseplants

I'm coming around to the idea that plants are for the outside of a home, not the inside.

It's some stupid fetish or subgenre (like bears, otters, and so on). The go by "plant dads."

I briefly talked to a German guy I matched with on Tinder, and his whole Instagram page was him posing shirtless with his plants.

Plants tend to attract bugs, so whenever I see someone with a jungle in their house, I assume they have all kinds of pests.

Let me guess, you have a little foofoo dog who is "your sweet baby."

They draw fruit flies/gnats.

No thanks.

People who know nothing are always so proud to display the fact.

Not that "too many plants" isn't a sign of bad taste and dubious judgment. We keep most of ours in the conservatory.

Anyone who thinks (1) plants can't be tended well so there are no wee little nasty gnats and (2) enjoying a fresh orange from one's own orangery in December isn't wonderful is a dolt.

And is unlikely ever to have had a fresh fig in her life.

I admit...I was drawn in by the many houseplant trend by watching youtube, including the one at R1. Instagram inspired me, too. I spent a good amount of money on plants, most bought online. I took care not to overwater, and read everything I could about each plant. Most of them died, or are barely hanging on. I already had some plants (hoyas) for a few years. So...what dies, it's whatever. Whatever survives...then great. It's a cool look, a home with many plants...but yes, you do get pests and gnats. It's a labor of love and a lot of work....and heartache, if some die, especially the ones you really love. I'm pretty much over this trend now. I'm happy with one or two healthy plants.

One of my favorite movies is, "Green Card". Not so much for the story, but the beautiful apartment...with the gorgeous conservatory for plants. I salivate looking at that apartment.

Does having too many houseplants make someone disagreeable and unpleasant like r7, or were they that way before the houseplants?

I would like a Wardian case with a collection of ferns like a proper nonce.

AIDS was originally transplanted to humans by gays who had sex with houseplants

R2, just get some plastic plants. No muss, no fuss. Every so often I swish 'em around in Woolite and they're good as new!

(this works for children, as well)

I swear this whole "gays love houseplants" stereotype was invented for social media sometime in 2019 or 2020. I guess OnlyFans whores need to have at least one personality trait besides being a cumdump. Really though, differentiating yourself with an alleged stereotype seems counterintuitive.

Houseplants aren’t really a “gay” thing, they are a “millennial” thing.

R21: He has an only fans with some good videos. If you’re into that, the videos are longer and better shot than most OF crap.

Balance is key. I like my plants - but don't think I go overboard.

My sister and a couple friends have an insane amount of plants - their cribs are like nurseries. But, it's their space, so if it makes them happy.

"Houseplants aren’t really a “gay” thing, they are a “millennial” thing. "

They're not even a millennial thing - there's always been the subset of the population who have houseplants.

It's better to have one or two..or maybe three plants, where they do well for you. It's easier for you and in caring for them, versus a whole house full of plants, where you lose track of which ones were watered, which ones need water...special light and water needs. Also, checking for pests can be overwhelming. Some people can do that and have a gorgeous collection of plants, with that green thumb knack. I envy them...not one of them. :)

A lot of homes in the 70s had many houseplants. It was a back to nature thing...from the 60s and 70s.

[quote] OP's guy is hot as hell

That's Jonas Jackson, a pretty well-known gay porn and OnlyFans "star."

He is obsessed with plants and with baking.

by Anonymousreply 27February 23, 2021 3:21 PM

OP--so you judge potential fuck-mates by the plants in their apartment? KUH-WEEN.

by Anonymousreply 28February 23, 2021 4:48 PM

One of Jonas Jackson's former boyfriends has claimed on the Internet that Jonas is crazy and controlling , but I just can't reconcile that with his youtube videos. He comes across in them (in which he often appears in his briefs, but which rarely involve any talk of sex) as one of the gentlest, sweetest men imaginable.

I've had too many houseplants all the way back to my teen years, all the way back in the 70s. My oldest houseplant dates back to the early 80s. I like having something always in bloom, which is usually true in my home.

And cats as well. At least I can ignore plants when I visit someone, unlike annoying “fur babies.”

I have a lot of plants but I don't have any bugs. If you have bugs then you're probably a dirty person.

The guy at OP: house looks cluttered with too many plants. Too much work to keep each plant alive.

r29 he is a narcissistic bisexual (sorry, 'pansexual'). Of course he was a horrible boyfriend, they are all psychos

by Anonymousreply 35February 24, 2021 3:00 AM

I do have to give it to him for his clever money making moves though. He started off as a gay versatile workhorse type - lots of studio porn with him mainly bottoming in stuff like menatplay. He has now reinvented himself as a onlyfans 'Dom top' who fucks twinks. He is no longer gay, but pansexual and fucks trannies as well. He has a good social media presence and plays the 'goofy, non-threatening and woke plant nerd'. But sniff around, and like his ex claims, he is a piece of shit.

by Anonymousreply 36February 24, 2021 3:10 AM

R29: The bf is/was Mickey Taylor who has had a lot of problems (crazy, drug use), is an aging twink and has too many random tattoos. Granted Jonas got involved with a crazy person which isn't healthy, but Taylor's rants make me think they might be chemically induced.
