"The Science Behind Catching Your Gym Crush's Eye"

Two new studies suggest that gym crushes may not be ignoring you due to lack of interest, but rather due to steroid use impairing their ability to recognize facial expressions, especially anger and disgust. Steroid usage in the LGBTQ+ community has grown as a means of conforming to societal beauty standards, with a desire to achieve the masculine ideal. However, a new study indicates that people prioritize intelligence and kindness over attractiveness and money when selecting a partner, with bisexual individuals showing a pronounced preference for kindness.

Joe Rogan, during a podcast with Bret Weinstein, erroneously suggested that poppers, a huffing drug used for anal sex and quick dancefloor highs, may contribute to the spread of AIDS more than the actual HIV virus. This claim goes against established science and is often used as a means of homophobia. Rogan referenced the discredited "Deusberg hypothesis" that suggests recreational drug use in queer men's communities is a more compelling factor in developing AIDS than HIV infection. This dangerous misinformation is being spread to Rogan's tens of millions of listeners.
