If I'm drinking from a cup that came with a top - like from a fast food drive thru - then I'm fine with a straw. If I'm drinking out of a glass at a restaurant, I don't like straws.

straws were originally made for women so that they did not get their lipstick on their glass

back in the day, straws were referred to as "sissy sticks"

yes, I'm old

sounds like your dad was old school and a baw's baw

That's not the question. Is it trashy is the question.

Either you're manly or you're not. If you're worrying about whether or not something you do is unmanly... well, you probably should start sitting down to piss.

It is unmanly except When drinking any kind of alcohol besides a daiquiri.

I cant think of anything more suspicious of a grown man using a straw.

I only use a sissy stick in a restaurant so I don’t lip a germ off of a glass.

Here in Austin, most places have those enviro-friendly paper straws that disintegrate before you can even finish your drink.. seriously.. so my wife got some metal straws off Amazon that she carries in her purse for us, true story, and while i dont give two shits what’s ‘manly’ or isn’t- NOTHING is manlier than drinking from a goddamn metal straw.

I always thought it was kind of a "Blapipo" thing to absolutely have to have a straw. This is from experience waiting tables. Seems like that population has a higher incidence of germophobes.

Proclaiming oneself an alpha male is one of the most direct ways to make a prima facie case that you are not an alpha male.

I just think using a straw is more hygenic a lot of the time.

Everyday germs are good for you. Over sterilization has led to the modern day stomach issues and allergy issues.
