What to do when you awkwardly find yourself in a makeshift circle jerk and suddenly realize you’re involved in some major homoerotics? Just shout “No homo!” and you’re good. (via TP)

Jay Smooth did some commentary on “no homo” on his vlog last year. Here’s his non-satirical post on the phrase’s origins.

I must live in a bubble. I honestly have never heard of that phrase. I figured these kids made up something new. I guess I am just a dinasour.

These guys did the same thing a few years ago but it as much funnier and not homophobic like this one.

If I’m not mistaken- the term was coined from Lil Wayne. He pretty much inserted the phrase into the majority the songs recorded for his slew of mixtapes and albums from the past 3 years. This came about due to wide speculation that he might be gay after a picture of him kissing his self-proclaimed “Daddy”, recording artist and label manager Birdman. As hip hop music continues to be the most homophobic genre, (well besides contemporary christian of course) it would be career suicide to be regarded as gay. You can even hear him mutter it among the first words in his most famous song, “Lollipop”.
It’s at least the first place I heard the term being used.

im 22, in college and the sad thing is that I hear this all the time. “Dude you are lookin real good today, No Homo!” I really wish people would stop saying this, its not funny.

@Gabe: Agreed… I wonder if I can get away with yelling “No hetero?” Maybe when I get up and look like shit, I can yell “No Hetero!” Or when I burp at the table yell “No Hetero!” Or maybe when I do something small-minded or piggish yell “No Hetero!” What do y’all think?… No?
Sam
Yeah. I just heard this for the first time a few weeks ago. I really hope it dies a quick death, ’cause it’s more nails-on-a-chalkboard than the frat boys who use “brah” every other word, which just about drove me crazy while my partner was in grad school.

“brah”? “no homo”?
man, I’m so glad i didn’t hear about this crap when I was in college.
yes stupid. blech.

LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE PASSSSSSS
I first heard this maybe 5 or 6 years ago, it was popularized by Dipset (R.I.P.) and other NYC rappers in 2003 or so.

it’s 2009 and guys are STILL way too tightly wound up over who and who isn’t gay, or what is or isn’t an act or activity that will make them appear what they define as gay? Really? still? I was their age in the mid-80’s and the straight guys were the same back then, all these years later young guys are STILL NEEDING to assert their sexual preference to everyone around them like someone is keeping score. I guess it’s good to see them laughing about it, the guys back in my day would all punch eachother and go pick on the chess club for being a bunch of fags.
