Sock rule 

When you have 'socks on' your feet any homosexual actions or statements being made holds a status of being undeniably 'not gay'. This rule applies to past, present, and future events that socks are worn at the time of.

When someone challenges if individual is committing an act that is gay, the individual in question must quickly claim whether or not they have 'socks on' or not. This is done to determine the orientation(level of gay) of said event. A third part is allowed to ask if socks where worn if 'socks on' status is not given.

When an action or event is challenged, and if the individual partaking in the event or action only has one sock on, the individual in question has the right to determine the effectiveness of their sock using the chart below.

Having two socks on is undeniably 'not gay'.
Having one sock on or socks that are located beyond the feet regardless of amount are considered ambiguous and is the responsibility of the wearer to determine if it was 'gay', 'partially gay', 'half gay', or 'not gay'.
Having no socks on while performing or saying something homosexual, will always hold the status of gay.

Having one or more socks on your person while also not being worn in any way, holds no value. The status of this/these socks shall not be used for determining an orientation of an event or action.

Person1: "Yo, I'm going suck that dick."
Person2: "That's gay!"
Person1: "Nah, I've got socks on."

sock on the doorknob 

Tying a sock on a doorknob to signify to others that you are inside the room having sex. You do this as an international sign to say: do not enter. If you do, you will regret it and I will be embarrassed.
Sometimes called a doorsock

My roommate saw the sock on the doorknob, so they knew I was in there having fun with my partner.

sock it to the nuts 

The act of sliding your penis in a girl's vagina until your testicles touch her pubic region. Completely covering your penis. Much like pulling a sock over one's foot.

Yeah that girl I took home last night let me sock it to the nuts.
