30 tweets about gays and walking fast that are categorically true
It’s a scientific fact that gay people walk faster than straight people.
OK, OK, maybe it’s not a scientific fact, but it’s definitely a #fact.
Earlier this year, a petition was launched in the U.K. asking parliament to consider installing “gay walking lanes” specifically for queer people who, for whatever reason, are always in a hurry.
In June 2019 interview with GQ , psychologist Ian MacRae hypothesized that the correlation between homosexuality and walking fast had to do with a variety of factors all working in tandem.
“The fastest walkers are men, younger people, and people who live in urban areas,” MacRae said. “So already younger men in cities are the fastest walkers–perhaps gays just have an edge on that?”
Honestly, we’re not sure why gay people walk so fast. And when paired with the fact that we’re also always late to everything, the phenomenon becomes even more mysterious.
And now, the tweets…
