The "Why Are You Gay" meme originated from a viral interview in 2017 with Ugandan TV host, **Katsim Bosa**, who asked a guest, **Frank Mugisha**, a prominent LGBTQ+ activist, the question, “Why are you gay?” The absurdity of the question, combined with the host's serious tone, quickly caught the attention of internet users. The clip spread rapidly, with people using it to create reaction memes, often replacing the question with humorously awkward or nonsensical situations. While controversial due to its original context, the meme was widely circulated, leading to remixes and parody videos across various social media platforms.
