The Phrase “NO HOMO” is Completely Getting Out of Hand

For some reason, the phrase “NO HOMO” has become apart of the urban community’s everyday conversation. Why do people feel that when they pay a compliment, for example, “I love your jeans,” it has to be followed by a “NO HOMO” disclaimer. This makes absolutely no sense.

There must be some underlying reason for people to say this. Unless a female comes up to another female and says, “I like the way them t*t-tays is poppin’ out that shirt,” then there is no need for it. On the male side, unless a male comes up to another male and says, ” Man, I like the way your jeans are hanging off your a**,” then the phrase “NO HOMO” is not needed.

Why do people feel the need to use this term? Does it really justify a person’s sexuality or are they just hiding behind this phrase, “NO HOMO”????
