Okay, here’s another one from an internet search that directed a visitor to this blog: “Do only gay guys wear harness boots?”
My opinion?

First thing I said to myself when I saw this was, “oh crap, where do some people come up with this stuff?”

Then I thought about it, and with decidedly differential consideration that some people are overly affected by what they see on the internet, I just had to laugh.

Yeah, go ask a biker wearing harness boots if he’s gay. If you don’t get a punch in the face, you may be lucky.

Hundreds of bikers belong to my motorcycle riding club. Most of them are straight and if any of them are gay, they’re in the closet.

The thing is, harness boots are very common motorcycle boots, and in my area of the U.S., of the bikers I see on any given day or on any ride I go on with my club — more than half of them wear harness boots.

Why? It’s easy to find cheap harness boots. Perhaps cheap boots do not have much quality, but they present a typical masculine biker boot appearance. Square toe, usually black, rugged-looking construction.

So why the thought that only gay guys wear harness boots? Because there are a lot of videos and images that gay guys post on the ‘net about harness boots — or doing things while wearing harness boots, such as wearing leather, smoking, or walking in the mud. We’ve all seen that stuff. But the volume of images (and video) on the ‘net of gay guys expressing their enjoyment of harness boots is huge.

Think about it, when was the last time you saw a straight guy posting about how he “loves” his harness boots, or produces a video where he demonstrates his fetish interests while wearing harness boots?

This question is asked, then, by someone who has jumped to a wild and inaccurate conclusion based on what he sees on the ‘net.

Answer to the question: No. Even “hell no.” Most gay guys wouldn’t be caught dead in boots. The gay rainbow has many colors, and the range of colors who prefer harness boots is small in comparison to the range of gay men who choose to wear other footwear.

Thinking about it, I could ask, “do only straight men wear sneakers?” I would be just as dead wrong on that one as this question is.

Life is short: separate reality from the unreal influence of what you see on the internet.
