That conversation I just read was hilarious. You should remake the scene about the two guys fighting over whether or not their drink order is gay. That’s funnier.

Mojitos are not a gay drink – just don’t get one with an umbrella. Its a summer drink for those in temperate climes and a year ’rounder for those who live, like me, in the tropics. Try walking into a bar in Cuba and telling everyone that a Mojito is a gay drink….

On a side note, I prefer mine with a dark rum, lime, mint, soda water and almost no sugar syrup, drier the better.

I “innocently” ordered a Mojito for lunch on my birthday. You do realize that a Mojito it nothing more than a white rum version of a mint julep, with lime?? Does that make you gay? If this gets out, a lot of Kentucky land owners who own prized horses are going to shoot themselves.

Mojitos are snobbish and pretentious. Maybe even gay!

Hemingway was gay with children. Like Brian says, “I do not think mojitos are gay. MO-JI-TO.”

Oh, and if you want a gay drink, you’ve got to go with a white wine spritzer.

I see my Hemingway point has been made. If Hemingway drank it then it is only slightly less manly than pure testosterone.

Mojitos are for men that appreciate leisure.

that is, being rejected by gay guys as being “too gay.”

Tell your writing partner that in a bar I wouldn’t think twice about a guy drinking a mojito or a mai tai and wouldn’t reject him for it. On the other hand, I’d absolutely walk out on a guy who told me he thought another guy was “too gay” because of what he was drinking.

I knew two uber-testoterone-fueld men who had a bet going once, and the stakes were whomever lost the bet had to loudly order a shirley temple at a bar. I saw the order happen. So apparently that is considered a humiliating drink to order by manly men. It’s also not really a “drink” because there is no alcohol in it.

I agree that the dialogue as is would make great movie dialogue, if they were just contemplating making a move before the girls even see them.

Also potentially funny would be the men trying to be macho enough to attract women down the bar and ordering a big manly scotch or something hoping the women will notice and having the butch lesbian bartender loudly shout to the bartender down the way “two scotches for the overcompensating closet gays.”

Or getting rejected by two gay guys when they weren’t even hitting on them.
