__FORCETOC__

30 December comment

There’s a passage that reads, “Other sources suggest that roughly three-fourths of gay men have had anal sex at one time or another, with an equal percentage participating as tops and bottoms.”

“At one time or another” should, ideally, be deleted. Otherwise it should be replaced with “at least once”. It’s both too wordy and too casual as written.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:F92:9010:4118:5FB7:F8DB:958D (talk • contribs)

Remove the gay image from the lead. This was added without consensus against the long standing consensus (per the note that was inside of the file) that advised against it. 174.200.141.195 (talk) 00:51, 17 March 2025 (UTC)

:I've reviewed the talk page archives where this consensus was reached(Archives 8 and 9), and I think the removed note may have been overrepresenting that consensus. My instinct is that the double-image helps alleviate concerns that come up here regarding the image unduly representing heterosexual or homosexual couples as the default depiction. What do you think?

::I don't think it's really necessary to have the male-male image at the very top, myself. It was indeed added (or was it moved up?) recently in passing, but could be lower. Crossroads -talk- 16:01, 17 March 2025 (UTC)

:::Removing it for now, I agree it's not necessary to have both depictions. Both sexes have an anus. Also the male-male image isn't a particularly clear shot of the anal penetration anyway. Zenomonoz (talk) 04:30, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

Shudo

I was scrolling through, and noticed a section on Japan. I thought it might be interesting to add a section, or a link to samurai practice of Shudo DairyEnjoyer (talk) 21:57, 7 May 2025 (UTC)
