Sitting on the opposite end of the spectrum from Camp Gay, Manly Gay is when a homosexual man is shown not only in lacking Camp or feminine traits, but kept going in the opposite direction and into the realm of pure, unbridled masculinity. A character who is Manly Gay is the complete opposite of the Camp stereotype. Typically such characters are large and strong and shown doing masculine things like sports. He may have a Carpet of Virility, he may be a badass, or he may have Stout Strength... but regardless of how he got here, the result is the same: He's manlier than your average man, straight or otherwise. This is an archetype associated with modern gay porn, but it's also a distilled ideal of gay male culture having roots in Greek philosophy about male sexuality, one that often appeals to other gay men — one of the reasons it has become so associated with gay porn. Such characters also appear in other works as a means of telling a Gay Aesop about how not all gay people are "like that." Manly Gay characters are often seen as a form of Straight Gay by straight (especially Western) audiences, while it's seen as its own gay stereotype to others (especially Eastern audiences and gay folks themselves). Compare and contrast with Straight Gay. The Distaff Counterpart is a Lipstick Lesbian. If the character is stereotypically Camp, then he's actually Macho Camp, a trope many Played for Laughs examples also fall into. May be The Bear, a Big Beautiful Man, a Leather Man or a Gay Cowboy. Many a Gayngster qualifies. May also be an Armored Closet Gay. See also Bara Genre, the genre where Manly Gay men have... fun with one another. |

The Simpsons: How can anyone forget DUFFMAN! Not all of them though, as he's played by multiple actors. In Homer's Phobia, Homer takes Bart to a steel mill because he's worried Bart spending time around a gay man will emasculate him. Much to Homer's consternation, it turns out the steelworkers are all this trope (with some Macho Camp mixed in). Then the five o'clock whistle blows... |

Borderlands 2: Everything about Sir Hammerlock screams "scholar", "hunter", "adventurer". He's clearly a gentleman of British design, a mustache that would make Mario & Luigi jealous, speaks like a true scholar and knows his way around a gun and murder like the Vault Hunters. Even his splash card and name are manly. He mentions an ex-boyfriend during a side mission as if it were common knowledge, otherwise it wouldn't be too obvious. Said ex-boyfriend is even more so. While Hammerlock prefers fighting with a sniper rifle from a distance (as befitting the image of a gentleman hunter), Taggart enjoys fighting dangerous wildlife with his bare fists. This goes up to the point that Hammerlock gets married to the heir of the Jakobs corporation. (As the game gleefully points out, yes, that Jakobs.) Wainwright Jakobs is a gravel-voiced, hard-drinking, shotgun-toting, Sophisticated as Hell Southern Gentleman who loves Hammerlock dearly and will go the the ends of the earth (or any planet really) for him if need be. |

Northstar, the Canadian superhero and twin of Aurora (both were in Alpha Flight) is a brash, intelligent, and confident/arrogant Jerk with a Heart of Gold with Flying Firepower abilities (flight, potentially up to light-speed, and Light 'em Up powers) and veteran of both Alpha Flight and the X-Men, came out while appearing in his then team's (Alpha Flight) 106th issue in the 1992 comic book. It was a groundbreaking event in comic history, as he became the first superhero to say, "I'm Gay", and made international news. In 2013, Astonishing X-Men #51, Northstar marries his partner on the cover, and the issue was widely heralded as another groundbreaking moment in comics. Northstar is arguably the most well-known gay superhero of all-time. The character, created by John Byrne, was designed to come out a decade prior in Alpha Flight, but the editor of Marvel Comics at the time was against it, so Byrne and his successors just wrote lots of subtext in. | |

The Shadowlands expansion to World of Warcraft introduces a hero from another world Thiernax and his husband Kadarin. Thiernax is a heroic warrior who sacrificed his life to save his world (the Shadowlands are the realms of the dead), and it's heavily implied he was either a famous general or some kind of political leader. Thus, he would probably qualify for this trope. Although Thiernax intended to sacrifice only himself, his goddess Elune had other ideas: and Kadarin ended up dying as well. Thiernax feels very guilty and is thus quite shy. Adorably, Kadarin doesn't seem to blame Thiernax for his death at all and doesn't understand why his husband feels so guilty. | |

Elf & Warrior: Reference is made to Hector's lack of womanising ever despite the fact the other soldiers do, by a friend who later confesses he's been in love with him for years and is done waiting. While that doesn't go as planned, gruff soldier/warrior/bandit/all round badass Hector does return Teucer's feelings but it appears to be too little too late. Teucer also definitely counts even if he's a little less "gravel for breakfast" gruff than Hector he's still pretty macho | |

Lucrio in the novella A Taste of Honey. He serves as a tricenturion in the Daluçan army and is chiefly included in the embassy so he can train Olorumi soldiers, meaning he spends much of his non-sexy time slathered in sweat and grime from the training fields. He's also a Hunk with a Carpet of Virility and the buff, muscular physique of a professional soldier. He has no problem walking around naked and showing off his assets. He's also gay. | |

Between 2007 and 2010, numerous fan works starring the characters Thrall and Rehgar from Warcraft were written, as a result of the probably unintentional Ho Yay in their dialogue from World of Warcraftas well as some of the supporting novels. As an axe-wielding orc warrior and Warchief, Thrall would definitely qualify for this trope were he canonically homosexual. Rehgar with his more camp mannerisms and healing abilities would be more of an Agent Peacock, making this a classic fanfiction gay pairing. Many fans maintain that these characters are bisexual and did have a relationship, although Thrall's marriage to Aggralan in the Cataclysm expansion has largely sunk the ship. | |

Tails of Fame has Seamus Osgranov and Linkard Reid, both of whom are proud homosexuals who are also very burly and chubby. The former is a criminal who thoroughly enjoys cracking crude jokes, toilet humor, and acting like a stereotypical Fat Slob, while the latter is, in fact, an ex-convict who knows how to defend himself. | |

Tiger King has the titular "Tiger King" himself, Joe Exotic, a distillation of every larger-than-life Deep South redneck stereotype one can think of... and also a gay polygamist. His flamboyant fashion sense manages to fulfill both stereotypes simultaneously, that of the flashily-dressed gay man and that of the Good Ol' Boy who got rich and decided to live out his Elvis fantasies. | |

Ike from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance has been seen as Ambiguously Gay by many given none of his support routes are straight, and he seemingly grew out of his crush on Elincia by Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, as she does with him. There's a lot of subtext between him, Soren, and Ranulf, that is often considered fanfic fuel by many a Yaoi Fangirl. While some of the creative staff deny it, there's a lot of evidence showing Ike has no interest in women, especially in Radiant Dawn, and is either this or asexual. Given that he's the most muscular Fire Emblem Lord aside from possibly Chrom, he's an easy target for this. And also given Intelligent Systems and Nintendo have yet to actually state if he's asexual, but have plenty of Ship Tease between Ike and Soren, and even Ike and Ranulf. | |

Rise of the Third Power: Rashim, a hardened Tariqqi commander, once had a relationship with Reyna, but this fell apart because Reyna gave up on romance in favor of focusing on her Resistance duties. In the present, Rashim has a husband, Maliq. Since his romance with Reyna was genuine, he qualifies as either this trope or as a manly bisexual. The pirate captain, Fire Eyes, is as cutthroat as one would expect from an outlaw of the sea. However, he had a secret relationship with a male crew member, but was forced to cancel the relationship because the pirate's code forbids romance of any kind between captains and crew members. |

Many professional wrestlers get accused of being Manly Gay (must have something to do with the oiled-up muscleman physiques and those tight trunks), but the WWE tag team of Billy and Chuck actually had being ambiguously Manly Gay as their gimmick, until they finally came out of the closet... as straight. During a gay wedding ceremony that had been heavily advertised and talked about in the press. Suffice it to say, GLAAD (who actually endorsed the "wedding") was not happy with WWE. Their manager at the time, Rico, was very much not manly, and kept his personality. And then he took up a singles career after the team split, dressing in bedazzled spandex and wearing make-up and coming to the ring with his... girlfriend manager. And would proceed to get a psychological edge by kissing his male opponent. The only reason the WWE wasn't burned to the ground over it was that it was Rico apparently taking his own natural tendencies and cranking them up. | |

All in the Family: On the program that broke all previous barriers and taboos, one of the earliest came in the Season 1 episode "Judging Books by Covers". Archie is annoyed by one of Mike's outlandish friends (Anthony Geary, long before he played Luke on General Hospital), who acts and dresses effeminately but was otherwise heterosexual; in fact, Archie is so irritated he goes off to Kelsey's Bar – its first appearance in the series – to vent to his friends about gay people. One of the people involved in the conversation is a middle-aged man, a one-time football player who has traditionally "male" interests ... and is a homosexual. No male-on-male affection is shown in the episode, but Archie does learn that outward appearances do not necessarily mean someone is gay or straight. | |

The Saturday Night Live commercial "Schmitt's Gay" perfectly parodies the typical "scantily clad women partying with/fawning over guys" scenario of most beer commercials by having scantily clad men partying with/fawning over guys. All of the men in question are muscular and handsome, and/or act in stereotypical "bro" ways, and aside from being attracted to men, none of them display a single stereotype. | |

He's also from a family who are the Asgardian answer to Mountain Men or Marcher Lords, is fancast as Sean Bean and said to be, when temporarily an adult and a fully fledged Viking God, about two metres tall, with Manly Facial Hair and built like a literal bear.

You might think Animal Crossing might not have any examples given the fact there's No Hugging, No Kissing, but Jock villagers seem to push the envelope enough that it's fair to think they are this trope. The fact they show little (if any) interest in females, often preferring the company of males, complimenting on the physique of male characters such as The Villager or Cyrus, and often being in your corner if you're a guy being your one true rival, yeah. It's blatantly obvious to see what the creators had in mind when designing these guys. | |

Discussed in Metrosexuality. Everyone comments just how masculine Jonno is and Jonno himself, a former serviceman, addresses the issue of manliness among Gays, saying that his tough upbringing and extended army experience didn't make him "funky" and in touch with his feminine side, thus not at all in tune with the usual campiness of the London LGBT scene. | |

League of Legends features a few: Graves the Outlaw is a tough-as-nails career criminal from Bilgewater with an affinity for giant shotguns and cigars, and he's also had a history of male lovers, with most signs indicating they were just as much scummy troublemakers as he is. At the very least, his current partner in crime, Twisted Fate, seems to also be his actual partner. K'Sante is the monster-slaying paragon of the Shuriman city-state of Nazumah, and a very built, boisterous one at that. He also happens to be gay, and the story of his past relationship with a fellow male comrade — specifically their breakup, which happened to be because of K'Sante's reckless willingness to throw himself in front of danger — is a major character beat that informs his current sense of humility. |

Manly Guys Doing Manly Things: Commander Badass has had at least one confirmed male lover. Most of his equally macho buddies are implied to be at least not opposed to the idea, with the exception of Max... Who might have taken this revelation better if it hadn't come up in conversation by chance in the middle of an all-male camping trip a long way from anywhere. And the irony of "someone who dresses that much like a Rob Halford body-double" being the only totally straight guy in the group does not go unnoticed. | |
