Bb that's lowk internalized homophobia he can be in the closet and also still discriminate or have a view
You can have this bi man say he's only into hot hot women because if he's perceived liking men, he loses out on many things, which is one thing, either conforming to societal standard (trait of internalizing) but parroting that energy out and saying things that put down a fruity cupcake would obviously automatically label internalize homophobia (of course unless you're joking with the gays and being open yourself which wouldn't apply in this scenario)
This is 101 knowledge highkey if for example, two bros hung out, one is extremely or even just a bit feminine while the other is the 'man can't be fruity [insert slur], we gng gng' typa dude (this is extremely stereotypical, but it happens more than I think it would)
Continuing forward, masculine guy puts down his friend and makes comments about how he is while pining for the mf and holds their waist down or something and just denies it outright while getting too comfortable LMAO, which this happens often with my inner circle, and it is certainly internalized (toxic male masculinity culture)
Fearing being perceived as homosexual would mean you're internalizing and/or have internal conflict !! It's a difference between being comfortable and simply not revealing because nobody needs to know the business vs hiding in fear of perception
I dont think seme is homophobe. he blushed rmbring ukes body in the locker scene. I think it has smthing to do with being poor and doesnt want to sabotage his life and sports by being gay. he has so much to lose while uke is rich he can be freely gay.
