Only if you start making out when you get there.
Your dad is judgmental and immature. What adult says, "That's gay"? He clearly thinks that the only kind of friendship men and boys can have includes grunting, smacking, and insulting each other while playing sports or trading bedroom stories in the locker room.

kinda. as long as you dont hold hands with him its all good.
3 Breanna H // Oct 25, 2008
yes
4 J // Oct 25, 2008
no it isnt your dads stupid lol its manly to have coffee with friends sheesh
It might be a little faggy if you guys hugged though. But I doubt you'll be doing that.
5 Billy S // Oct 25, 2008
businessmen do it all the time. just don’t stare into each others’ eyes
6 Abby // Oct 25, 2008
I don’t think it is? Who cares what other people think, aynway.
7 Sass B // Oct 25, 2008

8 chillax // Oct 25, 2008

9 cira // Oct 25, 2008
haha.. No you are not. and Like the others say: only if you don’t make out with him.
10 ubaga // Oct 25, 2008

11 Matthew S // Oct 25, 2008
Hahaha
Your dad is awesome lol. He was probs. joking
If it is, then a hell lot of people are gay.
12 sjhdramaqueen94 // Oct 25, 2008
Well uhhh. Yeah it seems kinda gay to me. But hey if your alright with that. Then i wouldnt stop.
13 Mannu26 // Oct 25, 2008
Not to be rude but your dad’s an idiot. That stuff doesn’t make you gay man. I go to eat with other guys but it doesn’t mean its something gay. Don’t worry people like your dad make you fear stuff like this which isn’t worth it.
14 persiangrl88 // Oct 25, 2008
I don’t think so. As long as you don’t sit so close together or like have your heads together or something like that, I think it will be fine.
15 Cullen#9 // Oct 25, 2008
I dont think its, gay, just dont be leaning over the table staring into eachothers eyes while you talk.
16 Mike V // Oct 25, 2008
No, just stay away from any drinks with whipped cream.
17 sexyhazeleyes // Oct 25, 2008
No not at all. You see group of guys out all the time.
18 Terry A // Oct 25, 2008
When your dad was 15, maybe it was. Now, it’s pretty normal.
19 BLUEJAY57 // Oct 25, 2008
only if you kiss and make out
20 Spanky // Oct 25, 2008
If you’re not gay, then it’s not gay…but, hanging out with a guy at a Starbucks might be sending the wrong message to the ladies…spend a little more time on the basketball court or skateboarding.
21 Lynn // Oct 25, 2008
Heck no!
22 janie d. // Oct 25, 2008
What?? Why would it be “gay” to go hangout and have coffee with a friend? It isn’t …not at all.
23 Pockyman // Oct 25, 2008
No it’s not a guy you just friend.
24 anna // Oct 25, 2008
not many guys around ur age do that, but if you’re just going there to drink coffee, then that’s not gay.
25 Lauren H // Oct 25, 2008
No. Like others say- don’t start holding hands or kissing and you will be find.
26 peace_before_power // Oct 25, 2008
I don’t think it is gay. Do what you want. Besides I don’t think that a social get together can be “gay”.
27 Casey // Oct 25, 2008
when did it become wrong for two guys to just hang out and get coffee, there’s nothing wrong with that
if girls can do it so can guys
you should not care what anyone thinks about you!!
28 McLovinIt // Oct 25, 2008
thats gay.
unless your like just walking around and end up getting something.
but hanging out at starbucks?
thats gay.
Alternative=mall
29 zachdavid100 // Oct 25, 2008
not as long as your getting pussy
30 Jonathan T // Oct 25, 2008
Err… in and of itself, no.
No more gay than going to Maccie D’s. I think your dad might have a bit of social prejudice going on there - coffee shops are oftern regarded as middle class, or worse, European!
31 Jazzy // Oct 25, 2008
As long as you guys aren’t attracted to each other and trying to get into each other’s pants then it is just fine. I have a lot of guy friends that get coffee together. You’re dad shouldn’t be saying things like that to you, or anyone else for that matter. He sounds homophobic.
32 Rafael // Oct 25, 2008
HELL NO. Batman and superman used to go out and drink coffee with each other and its not gay. Its just pure friendship
33 pdf // Oct 25, 2008
It’s very normal to spend time with your friend, and there are far worse places to hang out than Starbucks. I think your dad needs to cut you a little slack.
34 bellastella634 // Oct 25, 2008
Only men who are confident in their masculinity can unashamedly spend quality time with another guy. I don’t think it is gay at all!
35 xx_dustin_xx // Oct 25, 2008
a lot of straight men drink Coffee together…. i hang out with my guy friends and drink coffee at Starbucks ain’t no big deal just don’t let it get to ya
36 PAULO // Oct 25, 2008
Well I’m gay but honestly - yeah, that sounds pretty gay to me. Hanging out, tossing down a few cold ones, grabbing a beer… that all sounds OK. But coffee at Starbucks? That is so “metrosexual”!
37 Hunter.SPA // Oct 25, 2008
No. It’s not gay. It’s just something you two enjoy doing while you’re hanging out. I’ve hung out with my brother a few times and we went to see movies and went out to eat, but that doesn’t mean there was any incestuous sodomy going on. We were just hanging out.
38 CB // Oct 25, 2008
No! Your dad is just an asshole.
39 Jim I // Oct 25, 2008
no it’s just hanging with a friend

hell no whether you're scopin out the hotties guys or girls WHO CARES??? Everyone is there to time a TIME OUT from the world. Relax on the issue, your dad is just watching out for you, HOWEVER, he shouldnt have made a comment like that…thank goodness times are changing and whether you're straight gay or bi curious even with innocent thoughts!) People are becoming more open to the idea.
Life if hard enough without worrying about what other people think.
And hey as far as your dad is concerned…You're only FIFTEEN! I mean….does he think you should be boning chicks left and right in your parents bed and around the corner? You're young, enjoy your youth, without OTHER people hastling you with their phobia's.

*PS: You're still so young, you cant even drive on your own yet! Cities are so limited with places to go and things to see, you're just chillin and relaxin! And if you're causing innosent fun problems here and there, hey thats what boys do. You'll love and cherish the memories with your friend when you're older, married, have children, and a million other obligations.
You'll remember the old days of drinkin coffee at starbucks and pullin pranks on people
41 RobNyack // Oct 25, 2008
you dad said that was “gay”???
good freiking grief. i really have to wonder about some of our parents out there.
what does he think is not “gay”….if you guys go to a diner and have coffee?
going to a starbucks with a friend to have coffee is NOT gay. It’s not even odd or strange. The only thing odd or strange is your dad.
42 unknown-1 // Oct 25, 2008
Your dad is probably jealous cause
he doesn’t get to have coffee with his friends.
43 ♔←¥™YANCY™¥→♔ // Oct 25, 2008
