You're all so stupid. Tyler is GAY. A PURE FAG, AND PROUD OF IT.

[igotanswers101]

[LessMusclesToSmile]

in this video you remind me exactly of my best friend. he's straight and super accepting of homosexuality, he loves musicals, and hates sports.

[zigZAGGEDzebra]

[h2ollie]

Tyler, I love your definition of the straight stereo type guys, you are AWESOME! :D

[DaDayumn]

[mackenzieJP]

"Those kind of guys, the dude bros, the jocks, the frat boys, not, not my kind of people. I mean, the stereotypes of them are just an embarrassment to straight people everywhere!"

I agree on so many levels.

[NoInhibitions69]

Its up to all of us to knock over stereotypes - especially of gay ppeople. Good for you - you are awesome

ok i want to see you guys do an Archie Bunker podcast. When I was young, my dad and I did impersonate your favorite tv show character, and it just happened to be archie bunker. of course, i'm a 43 year old chick, and back then people had lp records, but it was my dads way of teaching me about racism without being preachy. i love your show...

[thomasjenner3434]

please can you do a crazy mad theme for me plz

[june9777]

omG i have that same alarm clock

[InevitablyDIANNE]

THANK YOU!

I thought they were hilarious, but I wondered why they were all doing the whole wanna-be-ghetto thing.

X'DDDDD

[awaxodog]

That 2000 show You will be taken as the role of eric foreman from that 70 show!!

[fugue10]

I'm re-watching this video. I think this was the first Friday video I saw of this channel. I was very confused for a while about why a straight person was on 5awesomgays. Haha.

[12thLeveIWizardKing]

Really good video.

And I love the George Winston song in the background. <3

[DNAchick]

Haha nice way to wrap it up! I've got to say I love your smile!

[theoldkappa]

You're fantastic. The only one not to wear a hat~ And you really wrapped up the week. Tyler Oakley, you are a great way to start or end my fridays~

[simplistic1018]

loved it. especially because its very true.

[curtisortega]

tyler izzzz what?!?!?!?!?! lol.

[susiebones]

:) loved this theme

[moo101c]

You guys are really cute.(:

[CrazyFanBoii]

VLOG plz haha

[wtfiskat]

I LOVE your "However"s.

[StopThatSquirrel]

yeahh that black shirt is pretty straight.

[yiningsu]

Man, you really bring it. Totally unexpected way to end the week, by subverting the whole thing and showing us what it's really about. Not making fun of straight people, but showing us that all stereotypes are stupid.

[tjciullo]

geee REALLLY!??!?!!? god youre clever!!!

[tictactongue]

Lol... Caught urself being gay at 0:09. LOL...

LOVE UR VIDS!!!

z')

[DrLoveH]

do an ocean team.. like everyone could be whatever they wanted from the ocean.. like a sea shell or a mermaid or a whatevs u get what im saying =p

[1chabadam]

thank you for doing this.

i think it was needed to create a kind of distance

to the subject.

[the8thlilpeep]

Tyler, I love you. You're so honest and true. Props. <3

[carpeofthediem]

I can't believe you go to my school!

[EllyatheDisco]

wow, you make a really good straight person!

interesting take on the week!

[zfresn]

you look like dr. drew. in a good way. he is sooo sexy and u look like his hot son....

[revoltncock]

Lifes not a theme, be your self and don't judge others.

[34ehull]

oohoohooh how about "wig week"

or..."heels week"

or...haha "gangster week" :-)

[jakecherub]

How about a theme of gays across the world and look at the situation for gays outside of America

[Braudi4]

Are you Straight? or gay?

[Revan46]

Tyler is gay, so are the rest of the 5awesomegays...they have theme weeks and this specific week was about pretending to be straight....least I believe that's what they were doing.

[DaydreamPictures1]

once again tyler takes the week

[eroxo]

really, really nice, inverted psychology, congratulations.

[Neko711anbu]

so cute <3

[kennyriverang]

Uhmm.. I'm kinda confused.... you ARE straight right? Cuz I really thought you are.

And yah, you make a lot of sense.

Theme: discrimination.

[diruxjunkie]

uh. 5awesomegays

not 5awesomeNOTgays

lol

[talkytom]

mmm he's gay. for realz

[snowbunnie73]

the theme should talking about what you thought or wanted to be when you grow up, when you were still a kid..... that does not makes sense does it?

i think that would be cool, it'd be ever cooler, if you choose my suggestion, because i'm a big fan!

[darrgo]

sometimes the minority needs to vent. when the majority "vents" it's not really the same. it's like a huge bodybuilder mocking a short scrawny kid. I'm not taking the victim stance, but many scared, lonly people do feel victimized and have no support networks. In conclusion, some fun of straight people is harmless. There's enough stereotypification of gays in the mainstream.

[HeyyyItsJAyyy]

Wow who is this idiot?

Its called the 5AWESOMEGAYS! Of course hes gay, and its called pride you ignoramous.

And if you don't like gay people, then you probably shouldn't be watching a channel called the 5AWESOMEGAYS.

Your disgusting.

[ChelSAYSAYSAY]

ty, i love you.

<3

[brprage]

oooh!!! This guy is a lil hottie!

[dancerstotallyrock]

what musical did you see???

[ngchikk]

You should have favorite recipe week!

PS I'm addicted to watching every video you guys make in and outside of the channel

[totallyjeremy]

transformers. just, i know. but itll work.

[maddog22089]

Ahhhh god, bring out the pillows!

[TylerAustinVlog]

This is such a brilliant video. AMAZING job!

[Setraen]

bore.........

[8poseur8]

greedy pig negotiators suck at their job.

[BobStockYT]

"gays in space"

[JayBellBooks]

Nothing wrong with being straight. I have a straight uncle. Bob! Bob in account is straight. Uh....

[OriJanelGangsta]

Hmm, do transportation week! All of the videos have to be made on the GO, in whatever way you see fit.

Honestly, I just want to see the fanny pack of PAIN in action on those rollerblades :)

[chelliexcon]

WIZARD OF OZ WEEK!

[aznchic01]

i'll be honest, when i first started watching this channel, i thought you were straight, just cuz you didn't look like a "typical gay guy". then after you talked for a while, that all flew out the window, lol :3

[andyking1818]

hot guy week where every video must be tyler

[alloutacash]

My father loved musicals and opera and he only slept with women his whole life.

[heyitsmads]

VIDEO IDEA: dinosaur week!! fashion week!! food week!! refridgerator week!! vampire week!! dance week!! PAjama week!! uhh,, yeah those are my great ideas that i would love to see!!

[AmyHitsTheAtmosphere]

yes! dinosaurs!

[johnlysenko]

Very insightful video Tyler! Great way to close off the week as usual.

[lizwhiz]

I think that if you look at this week as a whole, it makes an interesting point. Four stereotypes of straight males, and one straight male has to explain that it's not an accurate depiction of everyone who happens to be straight. That's a situation that doesn't happen often, because straight people aren't judged by the stereotypes of all other straight people. So it's an interesting look at what gay people go through constantly, in a reversed way.

[georginabull]

Very good to be non-stereotypical... the other 4 were becoming monotonous in their depictions.. Glad you gave the week a good conclusion. :)

[edwardsgirl09]

I think a topic you should do is to see who can be the most random, mostly because that would be hilarious

[hotttcupcake369]

I have the biggest crush on him! He makes me wish I was a gay man!

[jazzw0rth]

That was actually really straight... kudos.

[ciaranyogi]

I think for next week you should dress up and act as your opposite! Good Luck! x

[ciaranyogi]

I think you should dress up and act as your opposite!

[xfueldbymyramenx]

I think you guys should all dress up as drag queens to oppose the straight week.... then all dance to the hoedown throwdown by hannah montana .

I know it's too late.... but for future suggestions . x]

[vixen0995]

topics: what would you do if you won a 20million lottery? plan out you first YEAR w all the money in the world. be serious. not silly. how would it change your life. take that aspect. : what is your idea of a beautiful commitment ceremony. : vegas. all things vegas. have you been. whens the next trip. do you gamble. best elvis?

[theinfamoustravw]

Spring Cleaning Week! Take your murse, junk drawer, or car and clean it on cam and show us all the bizarre crap you've accumulated. It's much more fun than it sounds!

[EeeeeShabutie]

I think you would be the 5awesomegay that could pass easiest as a straight person.

[air1cat]

ahahahahha sooo much for straight week.

the ad on the side is: THE GAY TEST. and its all rainbow and hilarious. (:

[helledusseda]

A day in the life of an item. Could be a cup, the mirror, your toothbrush, your phone..whatever! :)

Always love your videos tyler!

<3

[ashiamalashia]

Fantasy week! At like a character from Harry Potter, LOTR, or Twilight. Or just act like you're part of that story.

[cafekawaii]

Do a theme where you have to blog from your bathtub hehe

[EndersGameKJ]

How about "You personally/5awesomeGays 5 years in the future week"

...or 5 years in the past whatev

[nicolbee]

Kudos for acknowledging the respectability of straight men everywhere.

Also, Accent Week! Everyone has to do their whole video in a foreign accent. And at least one person needs to do Australian because I completely love it when people do our accent :D

[di3g0222]

drugy week!!!!

[travelhymm]

drug week. do a video while on your favorite drugs, weither it be ,acid ,shrooms, e , meth, speed, crack , coke, or just regular old pot.

[ThePianoChild]

[so0oyesterday]

I like the Shark Week idea and the Murder Mystery idea :]

[buuuuuuudy]

KARAOKE WEEK!!!!!!!!!! <3

[EmoNerd1]

I unsubscribed after the first "straight week" video went up, but I've resubscribed after seeing this video.

[travelhymm]

owow your cool

[EmoNerd1]

Umm... thanks.

[jkwillrule]

That was really insightful :-)

[Shino686]

lol generalization of most people is naturally offensive to the vast majority said generalized peoples. As most of them do not actually fit the mode of negativity that most people care to remember of other people.

[MsBirdie91]

Ooh, I love the religion idea Ryuchan22, maybe each one of you guys make up a religion and talk about it or demonstrate how it works and stuff.

[VodouBaby]

-horror week- would sound exciting and would leave you guys with plenty of cool ideas and..mm..maybe some totally awesome video affects! :D

[PNKEEE07]

i love tyler week?

[userjack6880]

You win?

You have officially pulled off the straight guy... the best.

[moonspark]

Eco-Week

[Ryuchan22]

a religion week wud b cool.

[marcburo]

orgy week, please, if you have done it before? do it again!

[Username0invalid]

1920's week? : O <3

[whambamram]

-Super Villain week : act like a supervillain

-Virgin Week: act like your a virgin

-Rainbow week: dress in your favourite color

-Career week: talk about your career

-Random do what ever you want week: the title says it all.

[MacbookJesse]

HA I love it when everyone does he same thing and then one of you guys just slaps them in the face with something totally different! But staying positive!

[pyleofgracie]

Me, too. :)

[haypetunia0011]

DINOSAUR WEEK!!!! <33.

[so0oyesterday]

joe would be amazing at dinosaur week :) i would enjoy seeing that haha :P

[maguireandnina]

all straight men are like that! lol.

[luke7is7cool]

I think you guys should do a space week, where you dress up as astronauts. That would make my day. :)

[RGjr146]

This one made me teary eyed. I loved the whole week but Tylers message ... it's just SO important. Tolerance and acceptance is a two way street

[pyleofgracie]

Definitely.

[checkeredstripes]

Love the idea of a FML Week!

I have loved these kind of "acting" weeks. I really think in the weeks to come you should have a theme where everyone picks either one of their favorite Youtubers and creates a video in the style of that person, or re-enacts a video that was already made (with permission) and us viewers can guess witch Youtuber, video the person is being! Then maybe the next day can have an annotation at the end of their video to the person of channel that the day before them did.

[checkeredstripes]

Did I make any sense?

[katygolucky]

DISNEY WEEK.!

totally(:

[u2kowen30]

dude.. u guys totally have 2 do a my favorite socks week!!!

[stefanlittle]

COOKING! COOKING!

[theChrisChronicles]

Nice job on today. I didn't really enjoy this week primarily because of the stereo types. Even though I'm gay I felt this week's creative efforts helped me to remember how I feel about being stereotyped more than anything else.

[xfakethewoo]

band geek week

"how to" week

accent week

ohhh yeaaaaah :)

[piggieluvr]

u should do a disney week. pretend to be a disney character

[reganlovely]

[carsonmaier14]

can you guys do a suicide awarness week?

[anjie001]

how about disney character week ?

[Nokomoroko]

scary movie week!

[leida001]

How about Wildlife Week?...All the videos have to be filmed outside or include some form of animal?

Also, brilliant video; great way to finish the week and give it context and meaning :D

[SaveAshley]

I agree with diva week! That would be awesome!

[Lexerrz]

Emo Week

Weather Week?

Rhyme Week (the whole video has to rhyme)

Challenge Week (each video has to complete some type of challenge)

[cupcake67009]

animal week!

[greentennisman]

I would love it if you guys did a favorite movie week. I know you guys have talked about some of your favorites but never really in detail. Maybe Monday could list his top five romantic comedies, Tuesday his top five musicals, Wednesday his top five horror movies, etc. It would be great to learn about the five awesome gays' favorite films! :)

[AboysLuv298]

Do an FML WEEK!!

[randapandaFTW]

YES! FML WEEK!

[Sunlandictwins5430]

I like date week, talk about your worst or best dates, funny date stories etc.

ANNNDDD also secrets week.

[firefly379]

movie character week!!!!!!!

[PinkEightBall]

Share your phobias! PHOBIA WEEK! HMF!

[duncansomerside]

that was a very true and touching friday... wonderfully done. i think... i would be offended a little if straight people made fun of gay people to that extent and though they were just joking and waaay over doing it... when straight people do it, i hate it. i just think... yes its good to laugh at other eachother and things... but at this point the whole gay straight point is still to much of a touchy subject. maybe one day... but i dont feel its today. it would be to close to the truth i think.

[bcrosby]

We've always known to a certain extent, but how about relating the exact moment when you thought "yep...I'm gay"

[surferchixx08]

diva week?

you know you want to.lol it'll be soo much fun to do and well watch n.n

[emilineC]

I can't believe straight people are actually getting offended. Of course there are douche bags like the guys represented previously. You can't deny that.

But thanks Tyler for giving us a good wrap. (:

[mrhomerun1031]

animal week!!!

[SpeakSSllooww]

Ummmmmmm, I'm sure you've already picked the theme by now, but I think "Embarrassing Objects You Own" week would be good. :P

[Becka812]

You should do a "Do Something Crazy" week...

So everyone has to do something crazy...

like run across the street screaming "woooo!"

lmao xD

[MixedFruitProduction]

i agree with Lemnii

Movie Character week would b cool :DD

[Lemnii]

Favorite movie character week!

[ElleCasale]

yous should do country week.

like when everyone acts like a person from each country like spain, new zealand, china, etc.

[AndainPT]

Fruit week. Dress up as fruits. Like real fruits. Like Michael can be the hot banana.

[gilmoreguy]

Lip Sync week!

[OxSarahBabesxO]

I think you should do A nerd week ! That would be awesome ! . I think yous are really cool, Yous are all so nice ! x

[padon30]

I'd like to see a campy drag week

[Arrialovesyou]

I'm really glad that you did a normal straight person!!!

[liz092008]

ooh i really like celebrity week.

and tyler, you always do the "deep meaningful one" ..well not always but usually.

next week, no matter what the theme is, i think you should do something silly.

[noggin48]

WOW! That was really cool, what a great idea to talk about Straights. They talk so much about us:)

Give them some interesting thoughts perhaps? I am Gay, and I stick up for our kind. But I always give credit where it is due.

[cdover7890]
