From what my friend told me about Saudi Arabia, they have a similar mindset. With their extreme puritanical outlet, meeting women is near impossible. Being a top isn't considered being gay, but being a bottom is considered disgraceful.

The mental gymnastics, my god.

Imagine fucking another dude in the ass, all the while thinking "yeah, I'm straight as fuck!"

It's cool as long as they say "no homo" first

Nothing straighter than anal intercourse

What about a ruler?

I can believe this. I've met people like that where I live. They'll gladly bonk dudes on Grindr. They're never good lays either, it's all about getting them off. Blegh.

Except this view has been around since ancient greece. It's not mental gymnastics at all. It's just placing more value on the bottom/top spectrum instead of the straight/gay spectrum. Not that we should be viewing anyone as disgraceful. It's not anymore irrational or any less irrational than the homophobia western societies have.
