- hb2,
The answer is NO to both questions. First, it actually seems more likely than not that lifting weights probably tends to make a guy's penis even smaller, or at least to look smaller in proportion or comparison to his big huge muscles.
Second, I am a "homosexual" or gay man and I have many many gay men as friends and more, and absolutely NONE of us, or even any of the gay men that I heard of, lift weights. In fact, most gay men are not even attracted to other men who lift weights but prefer thinner or more average looking builds. As with all groups, I am sure you will find exceptions to that. But generally, I think the majority of gay men are turned off by guys who lift weights excessively.
Personally, I think the myth that "homosexual men tend to love to lift weights" is a stereotypical myth created by straight guys to "denigrate" or belittle stronger, more muscular, or more handsome men by "insulting" their masculinity or sexuality through calling them gay. And the myth also serves to calm the insecurities of most guys, who are not as muscular or attractive, by making the "lesser" men feel more heterosexual and therefore "more manly or worthy" in our male-dominated heterosexist society. (Of course I am NOT referring to you in any way. I'm talking about others.) It goes with the naturally competitive nature of males. And of course the media certainly encourages the myth because it appeals to the egos of the vast majority of men (who do not lift weights regularly), and therefore it is profitable for business. I think that if homophobia did not exist, then the connection between muscularity and homosexuality would not be nearly as prevalent or perhaps it would not even exist at all.
In addition, I think it is also a product of latent (or blatant too) sexism against women. In most societies (including American and British-based ones), women are expected to focus on their physical appearance. Men are largely excused from that pressure. Therefore, when a man actually does take care of his body or his looks through exercise, he is viewed as doing something that is mostly expected of women and therefore a "feminine" activity. And of course male homosexuality continues to be viewed by the majority of society as feminine or effeminate. So again, the myth is basically an insult to gay males, as well as to women (who also unwittingly perpetuate it due to brainwashing by the media.) And again, I am not referring to you. I'm just saying in general.
I've been lifting for 16 years and have never found a corelation between penis growth and bodybuilding.
- hb2,
The only confirmed gay bodybuilder to date was Bob Paris in the 1980s. But he quickly and completely gave up bodybuilding after a very brief time. Also, he later admitted in several books and interviews that he hated lifting weights, but only did it to distract from emotional instability and depression that he was having early on in life.
Very well said hb2. Extremely well written and factual.
Shame that many straight men always try to denigrate most
anything they're uncomfortable with. Such as gay men.

How would I be pushing your buttons?
I simply asked you a question that appears on the surface to
not have any factual basis.
Not hating,super.

As many others have said, weight-lifting doesn't increase cock size. I'm surprised no one else mentioned the link b/w steroids -- used by many serious bodybuilders -- and testicle size. Among the drugs' many bad side effects is a decrease in natural production of testosterone, which tends to shrink testicles. In urban gay lore (at least) huge muscles are often accompanied by a tiny dick, so there may be some basis for this. [Other popular apocryphal theory: men with small dicks overcompensate by lifting weights.]
As for hb2's comment, about not knowing any gay men who work out -- I'm wondering where you live? I live in NYC and got a jolly laugh from your post.

I am a proud homosexual. It is true that overall, gay men worship at the church of physical fitness and body image perfection.
Now, we all know that particular lifestyle as all other notions do, trickles down to the many many levels that exist in life.
I will never be that kind of gay perfection. I am however happy to say working out has done wonders for my body, libido and over all general sense of well being.
Other than the libido, my dick has not grown. (Sorry, I find that notion slightly humorous. Maybe if I keep eating long spaghetti noodles that will help increase my girth? Anyone beside me love that movie The Longest Yard?)
In closing dear reader, I am sad to inform you the gay men do not have the market cornered on physical fitness of any kind. My first bodybuilding hero was Arnold and he is str8 as hell.
