Knowing his sexual orientation its almost impossible for me...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kxws71b2J01qz7cfvo1_400.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Knowing his sexual orientation its almost impossible for me to believe that &lt;a href="http://jezebel.com/5472257/is-he-for-or-against-women-alexander-mcqueen-and-the-female-form?skyline=true&amp;s=i"&gt;Alexander McQueen was ever guilty of misogyny&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(&lt;a href="http://nudawn.tumblr.com/post/391716782/knowing-his-sexual-orientation-its-almost"&gt;nudawn&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What does his sexual orientation have to do with his potential for misogyny? I’m not saying that he was or wasn’t. Just saying that liking cock doesn’t exclude one from woman hating. In my experience, it’s quite common place among gay men.  There are gay bars here in DC that try often to pull some bullshit to keep women out.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Gay men are products of the same patriarchy as straights.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(&lt;a href="http://blog.kiamatthews.com/post/391740219"&gt;kiamatthews&lt;/a&gt;) (&lt;a href="http://chloabelle.tumblr.com/post/391825656/kiamatthews-nudawn-knowing-his-sexual"&gt;chloabelle&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yeah, I’m pretty sure all men like to see tits, regardless of what they want to do with them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I don't give a fuck what kinda underwear you wear. Sure, I might have some theoretical oppositions to your choice in panties or briefs or whatever, but, ultimately, as long as you keep them hidden under your pants, we'll get along fine. However, should you insist on walking around without pants on - if you insist on showing your undies to all the world - you better believe I'm going to verbally mock you for wearing such distasteful, unflattering, and old-fashioned undergarments. I don't want to see them. They're ugly and they make you look ridiculous. It's a burden to look at you with those silly things on.</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Note: I fixed that for you.&lt;/p&gt;
