Are you a metrotextual?

apologies for the tinyurl but it doesn't go to some scat site if thats what you are thinking

It seems it has become quite common for men to be sending kisses in the form of an x to other men while texting, infact according to T-Mobile 22% of all men that use there service sends kisses to other men at the end of there message....

 

Quote:
Metrotextuality" is most widespread among 18-24 year old males with three quarters (75%) regularly sealing texts with a kiss and 48% admitting that the practice has become commonplace amongst their group of friends.

 

if this isn't proof of the gay agenda i don't know what is

all joking aside are you a Metrotextual?

kinda depends on what you

kinda depends on what you describe as metro-sexual, someone that is over feminine, or someone that is very conscious about their appearance (get manicures and pedicures, well dressed, trimmed hair, up to date with fashion) I am the latter. However I do know guys that are hetro but are very feminine........kinda odd really.

I know alote of guys like that, neither text me a "kiss" after messages.  Never heard of that?  Its probably kids changing meanings again like they always do i doubt that many men are sending kisses to eachother.

You bastards! stop fucking with X! you dont know the powers that you are manipulating on the net... if this keeps up, XXX porn will be corrupted into soft core gay porn! YOU MONSTERS!

 

On another side, since fucking when has X = Kiss?

"Why, back in mah day, an X was an X, an notin more... unless you'se usin it ta sign yer name, cause you'se was a lazy shit.... mmhmm, yup"

 

(Also, does X on a treasure map, mark the location of a gay stripclub? .... what? im just asking... )

Sticking out tongue

Come to think of it, I haven't played tic tac toe in more than a decade. The results are generally predetermined, unless you're playing with someone who isn't paying attention, so it's too boring.

Doomed, when I was growing up (pre internet), x's and o's were put at the bottom of letters and postcards to signify kisses and hugs, respectively. Though I don't assume it is or was a global custom, most people my age or older know what they mean. It predates TV itself to my knowledge, so there is no danger of corruption of XXX ratings.

I always thought that an x

I always thought that an x meant hug and o meant kiss. Since the x looks like crossed arms and the o looks like pursed lips. Also people say "x's and o's" corresponding with "hugs and kisses".

I'm sure it variates. I always heard it the other way around, but it's not like I saw it written in stone somewhere. Sticking out tongue

Depends who I'm texting

Depends who I'm texting really.  Most men, there's no x involved.  Really good gay friend of mine gets a x every now and then Eye-wink  I suppose you could say I go both ways...

Oh, okay. Just so we are clear.

 

 

We have to preserve the sanctity of x's.
