Why do most people think that a guy that wears pantyhose for men (activeskin) and shaves his legs is gay can anyone explain this to me please?

cultural and societal norms state that men do not where pantyhose. therefore, those who do are seen as outsiders or weird, and labeled.

because the common standards of the day is that only women wear "pantyhose" and shave their legs. Imagine what women were subjucted to when they first started wearing pants as opposed to the traitional dresses. Because it was not common and often misunderstood they were looked down on for doing so.

Because most straight guys in American society are so conditioned to loathe any expressions of male sexuality that they automatically call it "gay" as a way of making sure everyone knows THEY aren't. Like anyone really cares. it's the same reason that at the beach, girls are supposed to entertain men by wearing the skimpiest thong they can fit into, but guys can only wear "shorts" that are so big and baggy that they aren't really even shorts to begin with, for fear of being labelled "gay" if they wore something like a Speedo which would leave them vulnerable.
In short, most straight American guys are sexual children, without the guts to look sexy if their lives depended on it.

Straight guys don't care what their legs look like, cuz girls don't care. However, a lot of guys have started shaving everything lately, due largely to the fact that all the guys on reality tv do it (big brother, the bachelor, survivor, etc). Suddenly body hair is so 'caveman'.

bcs these things are asociated to women, and usually, when a man wears pink, or does things like a woman... the result is to be considered gay...
