No. It's probably when I felt the most masculine and fit in the most. I was never picked last, even between the boys, and it was really fun!

[Haunter]

No. I loved PE and being active.

Not if you were physically and verbally abused for 3 years.

It was awful

I was so insecure at the time so athletics was a big no-no

And I was always picked last even though I lowkey slayed at baseball

I hate working in teams

I really dislike this stereotype of gays hating PE. But anyways, for me, I wasn't the best at sports but I was decent and did not get chosen last. So it was an ok-on experience.

And I got to see my high school crush shirtless multiple times.

I know and I'm aware of that. I've figured that much from interviewing the few gay friends I have. What I want to know is why does it happen only among the gays? What makes them inconfident about themselves when it comes to sports.

I can't believe that cause you're gay that means you suck at sports. Nope, I can't. It doesn't make sense.

Some gay men have kinda feminine moves and attitude. Most of the girl hate sports. I'm pretty masculine but at that time I felt any physical activity awkward, not to mention I was afraid I could expose myself to my contemporaries. At the end of the day I exposed myself by refusing to take actions that would expose me.

It's not a stereotype in my country.

Every teen gay I remember sucked at PE and was on a sick leave.

I remember I failed the physical exam they force students to take in California. If you fail you're forced to take PE all 4 years. My ass didn't do so hot on the push ups so I failed. I never did sign up for PE my Jr and Sr year so they would send me reminders that I wouldn't graduate. In the end it was all a bunch of bluff.

[Vato]

No, I used to love it, especially when we did track and field, truly the highlight of those years

[IamCY]

They don't make you do much at my school so it's okay. I only go to see my crush change and play tbh

My problem was that I, first of all, sucked at soccer and volleyball, but their biggest problem was that I was even refusing to play with them. I just never felt comfortable among so many guys, especially when I was like 14-15 and just starting to revealing my identity to myself. I didn't like to show my body to other guys and I felt it awkward when I had to run so much and do all those strange moves. Kinda diva-ish attitude lol.

That's so sad. Now I understand why this child in my class would only watch from the side field when we played. I should've made fun of him

[OnlyManInTheWorld]

I'm even scared to sign up for a gym nowadays.

It's a problem for me to do some jogging in the park. I feel like everyone's looking at me in a strange way.

I remember that test. I did like 58 push ups.

You should've told your teacher to find him something else to do. Other than team sport. I'm sure he would've agreed on that.

No

My junior high is actually known for it's P.E. program. The only thing I had trouble in was climbing the pole.

50 Yard Dash, High Jump, and Sit Ups are my P.E. trinity.

What about team sports?

[Vertigo Stick]

I hated everything except AP Lang/Lit

[OnikaSlays]

It's funny seeing y'all complain about little stuff like push ups and the mile. They pushed us so hard at my school.

[alkralkra]

That gif

No, I did nothing and had fun talking with friends who also did nothing.
