:tongue Is it just me or does the word "mate" sound gay?

Brits loves using this word - "mate", it means friend. I dont know what it is but whenever i hear this word i just think...GAY! I dont know why...

Mate <--- dont tell me that doesnt sound gay...i mean really, common...mate?

Nah, I don't think so. I have friends that call me "mate", "dog", "bro" and I can honestly say I've never considered myself gay, a canine or shocked to find I had an extended family I never knew about when referred to by any of those terms.

Now if any of them called me "Sugar Pumpkin" - that'd be another story!!!

I wouldn't suggest that you ever stand in the middle of an aussie pub and declare that the word 'mate' sounded gay.

The cleaners would be scraping your entrails and little bits of your other body parts off the floor, walls and ceiling for months ... MATE

the accent of the person saying the word 'mate' makes all the difference to the level of gay-ness.......

an aussie can say the word mate in such a way that will make his friend sound like a 300 pound, bearded biker....

It only sounds gay if an American says it. When foreign people say it you know that's their version of dude or bro so it's easy to tolerate.

I don't use it but I don't think it sounds gay.

I do like using "Cheers" though.
