No, he said **5814** , not **5812**. As you know, [homosexuality is just a step removed from pedophilia, beastiality, necrophilia, and corprophilia,](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=259746) so we have to find a very young goat that we can kill right after it’s had a bowel movement. Those of us in the know like to call it the “slippery slope.”

I don’t know why THIS is the thing in the thread that made me laugh, but it is.

Incidentally I use asking people out to movies as a way to make new friends and I’ve never had anyone, male, female, gay or straight, think I was coming on to them.

Thanks for the tip! You seem quite knowledgeable about this subject. What should I do if a guy asks me for my number but doesn’t suggest going to look for girls? Should I assume that he wants to soul kiss me? What would be the best way to let him know that I’m not yet ready to have my cock sucked by another man? Should I give him my number and tell him that I’m not gay (not that there’s anything wrong with that).
