...Ever heard the statement, "never give an answer to a question you were never asked?"
Just like most people, I am a lover of #hashtags. They make typing and messaging fun. But there is one #hastag that has infuriated my being. I have waited and waited, hoping that someday, somebody somewhere and somehow will sit and write about this menace, but noooo..... I seem to be the only one being plagued by this trend..."#Nohomo!"
So here it is, my very own angered point of view...
Complimenting someone these days has become extremely daunting as most people when they give the same sex a compliment, mostly on social networks, they end it with #Nohomo! Like seriously, why? why would you do that to yourself? Writing no homo like anyone asked you if you were one or you might be accused of being one?!... Since we are in a country were being *gay* is a serious matter, a sin and you might be jailed, rusticated by your environment and when you die... hell straight because you are the biggest and greatest sinner the world has seen!...(you know the hell part is true right?!...)
Anyways, back to the matter. People throw the #hashtag #nohomo like its a norm. Well it isn't. Just imagine you have a friend who is the same sex as you ,or not, who compliments your jewelry or your new android phone and the next thing they say after the compliment is ...#noclepto, tell me wont you go on over drive on that person's a**?! Anytime you see the person you become extremely paranoid that the person might take your stuff when you aren't watching?
Putting #nohomo after every statement or any compliment just makes it worse because you are highlighting an issue that was never brought up. Thereby making whoever you are talking to become paranoid. By the way, if you are gay, you are gay. Putting #nohomo or not putting it doesn't change the fact that you are what you think you are.
In my opinion, whoever started the #nohomo trend, just had to be a guy. Why?

- Because guys are the ones who are least expressive of their feelings to their fellow bro.
- They just don't throw out compliments to others guys not to seem awkward.
- They feel having an emotion to anything is emasculating, that's why they surround themselves with so many adrenaline pumping activities.
Girls on the other hand are very soft and emotional, that's why they are comfortable throwing compliments without having any #nohomo thought behind their minds. But now, both guys and girls put the #nohomo after their statement, so that they won't be tagged as "gay" not knowing that that just adds fuel to the fire.
Keep it simple people, if you like something, compliment it and if you are not comfortable putting your positive compliment out there...keep walking its not by force to comment.
And please no more #nohomo! its the most ridiculous #hashtag ever constructed. Try talking to yourself in the mirror using the *#nohomo* and see how stupid you look .
