You don’t have to be gay to uplift and compliment the other men you interact with. That’s just a side effect of toxic masculinity. Men can compliment each other, uplift each other, and say “Hey man, you’re looking good today. You make that shirt look good!” without being gay. Not that I disagree with anything you said, just you’re comment got me thinking about the weird effects of the patriarchy on men supporting other men.
I don’t know what you’re talking about man. My favorite sexy photos are ones where it’s obvious the lady FEELS sexy. If it takes some sexy lingerie and moody lighting, then so be it. If it looks like she’s enjoying the pose, then I’m into it. I can see boobs anywhere. I want to see her joy, her pleasure. That’s hot. Oddly not the ones where the girl “knows” she’s hot, those are different somehow. Don’t ask me to elaborate. Raw naughty un-dressed up sexy bits are fun too, if she looks like she’s having fun. I just don’t need her joy to be directly related to me in order to value it. I don’t care if she took it for me. She shared it with me, that’s enough.
