I've been following hundreds of sportsmen...
And commenting on their photos and stories by using emojis such as peach and flames. LOL
Up to this day I've been blocked by 3 or 4 homophobic men.
Otherwise, most of them stay silent... Some of them really like my attention and reply me back positively...We make jokes to each other. These are also str8 men, but not homophobic like the ones that block me. It really depends on character. And you're right. You never know what can come out of a super sexy sportsman.
Some of them are really ok with gays' attention. But some of them label your compliments as harassment and block you.
