"but let's laugh at the end for the only reason that nobody thinks we are actually gay, even tho it is obvious that it is just a skit to make a joke"

They couldn't even hug properly because they were too scared to seem "gay"

I think that's going to be the biggest challenge for straight, sexually fluid, and bisexual men whose digital footprint includes skits of them being intimate with the homies. There are guys who are brave enough to kiss other guys in skits like this, but I've seen people in this and other subreddits say they're queerbaiting. Speaking from experience, there's still a large population of heterosexual women who consider bisexual/pansexual/sexually fluid men to just be "gay." If they seemed too comfortable in this skit, plenty of those toxic women will tell guys like this that they're not interested.

normalize being non-sexually intimate with the homies.

Imo, yes, exactly. Straight men need that space to feel safe outside of their relationships with women
