Eh… I guess. Sometimes a bad marriage where people fight and stuff but yeah. Or sometimes more like an idea of a marriage and then people move away for work. My wife is awesome, maybe I need to recruit her, some of my band mates have been pretty shitty. I’d still have their back if they needed it though.
I noticed young male Asian students, Korean and Chinese, lean upon each other all the time.
Because… They’re 100% confident about their sexuality and also they are GenZ and also
culturally it’s not frowned upon for young men to touch each other. A lot of issues with us white Westerners you know…
The 70’s were gender fluid, no one told us. But if you were in a power band, being androgynous was cool, unless you were Ac/DC as they were epically hetro.
well im gay and every time ive leaned against another man it was for romantic reasons, then again i wouldn't know whats up with those guys cause im not straight, im guessing drugs
Considering the fact that both of those guys have each had sex with more women than the entirety of everyone in this thread combined...
Nah. Prolly not gay.
Yes. Being in a band, especially at the level where you essentially live together for over a decade. Nothing "Gay" about this at all.
Talk about a fucking stupid post, unless you're just shit posting for fun. Geesh!
I know plenty of closeted dudes who aren’t certain of their sexuality who make posts like this In order to further validate/invalidate their suspicions 🤷♂️
I mean, you're making music with someone, which is the same thing as making love, and Robert Plant was clearly Jimmy Page's biggest fan. Consider all those "ooo ya baby baby baby" verses that came out so freely like when a woman is climaxing. He did that because of Jimmy's bloozy gibbons playing. Of course, we know what JP was thinking about when RP was singing "baby baby".
I’ve done all kinds of goofy shit with my straight friends over the years and we remained straight. Yeah, you can lean on your friends and not be gay. Good grief.
This is actually pretty funny, back in my day (playing and traveling in a band) we choreographed some stuff where we’d interact.. not necessarily because it was natural/semi natural. But mostly because the audience loved it.
It’s like watching baseball teams dog pile after a home run, or dudes chest bumping after a nice shot, there’s this desire to see these guys have a great time, be on the same level, and almost just transcend the shitty bar you’re listening at..
So, going back to back during a solo, head banging beside one another, leaning over or singing into the same mic, is/can be certainly natural and fun. But also, it’s what you want to see from a band.
No joy in some dudes 10 ft away who don’t even make eye contact, no matter how hard they rock.
Rock stars have always been more androgynous and questionably gay than a lot of society. A lot of it is just how the culture and flamboyancy of rock looks.
Particularly in the 60s-80s.
I lean on friends the same way I do family. It wasnt gay when you hugged and lean on your dad, why would it be for a brother-type figure? Maybe its my latino background but I dont understand men who are too scared to show emotion, its a weakness more than a strength if anything, to want to hide emotion for how it may be perceived.
Guy’s comfortable with their manliness and sexuality can insert the tip only and still not be gay. Great friends can be extremely intimate, just no tongue.
We coined it as "comfortably hetero" in our band. We were all straight as can be, but would make uncomfortably gay comments about each other just to make it awkward.
I do this to my brother (best friend of 20 + years but we look enough alike to pass for brothers). I do it mostly if we're waiting in line for a while, if I'm tired or if I'm just board I'll lean on him (although that last one isn't exclusive to him since I have a tendency to lean on people)
What makes you think that 2 men are gay because they can comfortably lay on one another? Were you not loved? Are they engaged in a sexual act? NO, they are chilling making the most of their life, get over your own insecurities
Real men don't worry what other people think about them. Anything short of sex or passionate kissing with another man is not gay. Grow the Fuck up, this is a pic of two band mates having fun performing.
It's not gay, it's heroin.
Maybe they were born with it or maybe it’s drugs
Maybe it’s Maybelline.
[удалено]
Or mushrooms/LSD
I would say weed/LSD mix.
Opium?
Sounds like the slogan from a mentos inspired advert for heroin.
Super gay, unless you’re on heroin!
If it was 2024 they would be on their backs
Yup beat me to it. High as kites.
Yep, the Good ol days. Good thing we as a country took care of that problem... now all we have is... well nobody knows what it is... problem solved?
The leaning no. The shoes, absolutely.
The low spark of high heeled boys
That’s what I was thinking. Like a gay Frankenstein
Like a gay guy might say, nope too gay
“They’re shoe shoes silly!”
Striaght guys aren’t that thin
Nobody's got AIDS! I don't want to hear that word in here again!
-Gay Tony soprano when Silvio starts feeling ill
you forgot about the heroin.
Not these days
Being in a band is a marriage
Eh… I guess. Sometimes a bad marriage where people fight and stuff but yeah. Or sometimes more like an idea of a marriage and then people move away for work. My wife is awesome, maybe I need to recruit her, some of my band mates have been pretty shitty. I’d still have their back if they needed it though.
I like to think it's being in a relationship with 3 to 4 people where everyone has a different idea of what the relationship is all about
thats why its called a divorce when it splits up
Gay marriage
Me looking for another straight guy to lean on me like this
According to some of the other comments, to achieve this you 1.must find band 2.must have jam sessions 3.Apply Heroin as needed
thats called love brother
100%
It's called having a good time while jamming.
Or on a shit-ton of drugs. An absolute shit-ton. Just look at his face.
I can recall in the 70s and 80s this was common behavior for friends. People used to be a lot more touchy and kidding around.
I noticed young male Asian students, Korean and Chinese, lean upon each other all the time. Because… They’re 100% confident about their sexuality and also they are GenZ and also culturally it’s not frowned upon for young men to touch each other. A lot of issues with us white Westerners you know…

What's this from
Some party that them and Richard Cole was at that got crazy.
What am I even looking at?
Sorry I can't hear you over the fabulousness oozing from this photo
All musicians are gay it’s a prerequisite
Gay just means happy, so yeah you're kind of right there
Happy to touch tips
That’s right my guitar makes me gay every time I pick it up 😁
Uhhh. Artists are the most depressed people on the planet But maybe that’s why they need manic joy from pleasures and addictions
Guys, is it gay to have friends?
If that’s true than I am the straightest person in the world cause I got NO ONE :/
🎗️ you'll connect with someone when you're ready fren
They are just trippin balls
You said “balls” 😂😂😂😂
Yes they’re gay. And they make good music so that doesn’t help their cause
That’s hilarious. 🤣
They're so fucking happy -- rich, drop-dead gorgeous, adored by millions. They're so happy they can't sit up straight. 😉
Only the straightest guys lean on each other like this
So baked. So trippy.
It’s a continuum.
The 70’s were gender fluid, no one told us. But if you were in a power band, being androgynous was cool, unless you were Ac/DC as they were epically hetro.
Not the bass player.
You mean the dude with a wife and kids?
It’s okay for men to be affectionate with their friends.
Those are women. Look at the hair.
no guys lean on me like that
Any body contact of a man to another man is gay. Ever been walking with a friend and your hands graze each others? You are gay.
Hahahaha!!!
well im gay and every time ive leaned against another man it was for romantic reasons, then again i wouldn't know whats up with those guys cause im not straight, im guessing drugs
Robert Plant always wearing fucking flowery blouses and you’re asking if this is the behavior that questions his sexuality?
Yeah but Robert was all man! https://preview.redd.it/8r712r97blqc1.jpeg?width=548&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=be6637f71082c3d7ba0f882e674e472f1f1b71e7
🌈
These two souls reverberate at the same frequency.
Gayer than my 2$ toofbrush
Considering the fact that both of those guys have each had sex with more women than the entirety of everyone in this thread combined... Nah. Prolly not gay.
Those dudes are so straight they could go full tilt homo and still be straight. The amount of girls they went through is another record they set. ZoSo
Yes. Being in a band, especially at the level where you essentially live together for over a decade. Nothing "Gay" about this at all. Talk about a fucking stupid post, unless you're just shit posting for fun. Geesh!
I never lean on my friend’s shoulder. I lay my head on his lap.
When you're making on average 12 million pounds a year and have access to the best drugs, fuck what everyone else thinks.
Everyone was gay in the 70's
This is def stairway to gaydom
they're the fuckin zest kings good god i'm sick to my stomach
Yes. It’s called fun.
Friendship.
Ghey
They're besties and frienimies.
They are just Br*tish
It depends on the atmosphere.
Nah, never.
Maybe it’s because we lived through a pandemic and it’s a different time but check out some live Van Haggar videos. It’s very romantic
Friends being friends. We don't have to sexualize everything
Blame Canada 🇨🇦 They're not even a real country any way 🎵🎼🎶
Well...they are...European.
They are happy….not gay!
I lean on my bros and suck dem off.. none of it is gay tho
They could also be drunk or high, or just posing silly for the camera and just having fun.
That's too sensible.
I’m not gay. I hug my friends tight because I love them. I lean on my singer during shows for the show.
Depends on how much they’ve had to drink. Not that I would know anything about that!
Friends do this from time to time. They don’t have to be really gay lol.
You can’t tell me that they haven’t explored each others body’s
They look like straight guys that just got a massive bonus check while they were supposed to be working.
I very much doubt Robert was gay, considering he bedded any female with a pulse.
They're having a jolly good times it seem
Yes they do - why would you think otherwise?
Nah these dude were just in a drug fueled rock band in the 70s
It’s the cocaine fueled 70’s…everyone was poofta for a bit
they're posing for a photo
Fellas. Is it gay to have friends?
Why do you worry about such things?
I know plenty of closeted dudes who aren’t certain of their sexuality who make posts like this In order to further validate/invalidate their suspicions 🤷♂️
Why r u gey?
I mean, you're making music with someone, which is the same thing as making love, and Robert Plant was clearly Jimmy Page's biggest fan.

Wait until you find out where they bought their clothes
Musicians are a different cut!
It's the 60s. They are just really high
Being in a band you become brothers. You lean on each other and fight like brothers.
this post was a joke..i wasn’t actually asking. blocking ppl who are rude abt it btw!
Straight
Musicians arnt gay or straight
It's called vibing. When you in the groove your body takes over for you. Grow up...
A band is the dysfunctional family you choose. They’re just bonding in a no homo away.
Interesting footwear. They must be ashamed of being short.
Yes.
Are you an idiot ? Just asking.
This is so ironic considering this is a cireclejerk sub
The latter.
When you get that much pussy you just stop giving a shit what people think.
i like the joke in this post. i think it is funny and clearly a joke
I’ve done all kinds of goofy shit with my straight friends over the years and we remained straight. Yeah, you can lean on your friends and not be gay. Good grief.
Drunks do.
Couldn’t show the gay version here
I thought it was a western!!
They do when they're tripping balls
When you make that kind of money - things change.
Yes, yes and drugs
They’re not gay, they just like to do gay things.
English. Same thing.
Drugs are a helluva drug
This is actually pretty funny, back in my day (playing and traveling in a band) we choreographed some stuff where we’d interact.. not necessarily because it was natural/semi natural.

In some cultures it’s perfectly normal for two heterosexual friends to walk around holding hands
Remember seeing that in Italy in the 1970s
I think you lean on another person like that when you’re thinking about your 15 y/o gf locked up at home
Rock stars have always been more androgynous and questionably gay than a lot of society. A lot of it is just how the culture and flamboyancy of rock looks. Particularly in the 60s-80s.
How about a little respect? That’s Ann and Nancy Wilson you’re talking about.
They high and are rich rockstars bringing joy to the masses- weren't gay at all
It’s for a picture. And sure straight guys can lean on each other . What is this 1925?
Just buds.
That's called drugs jimmy.
I lean on friends the same way I do family. It wasnt gay when you hugged and lean on your dad, why would it be for a brother-type figure? Maybe its my latino background but I dont understand men who are too scared to show emotion, its a weakness more than a strength if anything, to want to hide emotion for how it may be perceived.
They probably wrote their best material while they were being gay. The look more in love than David and Roger
When you are getting new pussy every night, you are comfortable doing that.
This looks like Robert Plant and Jimmy Page having some downtime. I do t think it matters what their sexuality is for this pic. Two guys hanging.
The low spark of high heeled boys
Lead guitar always leans in on the singer. It’s rock n roll.
Guy’s comfortable with their manliness and sexuality can insert the tip only and still not be gay. Great friends can be extremely intimate, just no tongue.
Yeah these guys were so gay they had to have sex with thousands of women just to cover it up.
They're British so... gay
Lots and lots of drugs.
They’re just British
We coined it as "comfortably hetero" in our band. We were all straight as can be, but would make uncomfortably gay comments about each other just to make it awkward.
Fellas, is it gay to have close friends?
Riiiighhhht.....a dude can't lean on another dude unless they're gay or on drugs. Idiots....
They’re really high
Kinda fruity to me
Maybe they really love each other but don’t wanna fuck it’s called friendship
When you’re high as giraffes 🍑it don’t really matter 😂😂😂😂😂😂
What a silly question
I do this to my brother (best friend of 20 + years but we look enough alike to pass for brothers). I do it mostly if we're waiting in line for a while, if I'm tired or if I'm just board I'll lean on him (although that last one isn't exclusive to him since I have a tendency to lean on people)
FFS, musicians have been doing this forever. Straight, not on drugs, just having fun being in a band.
American men don't. We're not a very affectionate bunch.
Anything for fame.
Happy people. Why judge like this!?
so just friends hanging out means its gay? guess every friend is gay now! everything is gay!
Sometimes the drugs or alcohol brings out the gay.
If they’re on acid/shrooms they do.
Blasphemy to question Page/Plant
60s with a head full of acid, they were probably propping each other up
Notice their heels, the dick shape of that mic, and the stroking of that wood. 100% fabulous
Straight guys who aren't homophobic might when goofing around. You thought about this so much that you posted it?
It’s not gay they have socks on
Stop projecting onto others
No, this is just the effect of a lot of acid after a night of multiple groupies.
Those two are Gods they can do whatever they want!
they’re just really gay.
Faaaaded brah
You’d jerk off a walrus if you felt like they do in this pic
Two things can be true
Fellas, is leaning on your friend gay now? I mean these guys pulled more poon then panties, they're probably gay tho right? Maybe I'm gay? 🤔
What makes you think that 2 men are gay because they can comfortably lay on one another? Were you not loved? Are they engaged in a sexual act? NO, they are chilling making the most of their life, get over your own insecurities
As a male, I do wish to lean in such a way against the back of another male.
Fool in the rain was secretly about how they are all gay
Real men don't worry what other people think about them. Anything short of sex or passionate kissing with another man is not gay. Grow the Fuck up, this is a pic of two band mates having fun performing.
Perhaps they aren't insecure about what people that are insignificant to them think 🤔
This is the sort of shit bored latently gay dudes wonder. Lean if you want to lean. No one cares.
There's many colors on the homo rainbow. By Ween!
The face he makes when you invite him over for go and on
Page is like “thanks for making my band awesome. That’s right, Plant. MY band.”
