I don't know any men that act like any character in this movie. "I feel like I'm drinking out of Chewbacca's dick." yeahhhhh no one says that.

As a gay Man I agree it's hard to find straight guys that are not uptight

Wow, well that obviously means that there can't possibly be ANY people that exist like that in the universe! All because YOU don't know them! Totally!

OK, I haven't even seen this movie, but I know what you're talking about. It's like Seth MacFarlane writing banter between guys. It's like he's trying to guess what straight guys must be like when no one else is around. I'm wondering if he helped write this one...
