Tom of Finland (sensitive, stay away)

[citizen-k]

That must be the cultural insensitivity thing. While rape stories and homoerotic art are normal dinner talk in Finland and Sweden, bigots elsewhere refuse to have interest in them.

Ahem, I beg to differ, dear sir.

Rape stories and homoerotic art are normal dinner talk in Finland, in Sweden we only discuss IKEA and Animal ***. The best thing to talk about ever is having animal *** at IKEA.

Now go do a few push-ups while chanting:
"I am sorry for mixing up cultural preferences regarding dinner conversation... I am sorry for mixing up cultural preferences regarding dinner conversation... I am sorry for mixing up cultural preferences regarding dinner conversation..." and so forth.
Off you go! Make it at least 40 push-ups btw.

(I just imagened mutamato having *** with a Syrian goat on my IKEA coffee table)

I know... I was just kidding... Maybe they patterned themselves after some of his art. The similarities are numerous.

Tom of Finland

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Tom of Finland (May 8, 1920 - 1991) was born Touko Laaksonen in Kaarina, Finland, was a fetish artist who was notable for his homoerotic art. "Tom" sounds more like Touko than any other English name, so he really is Tom of Finland. Stored images of masculine Finnish laborers from an early age and recreated these in his drawings. Known for his physique drawings, he is also famous for the "Kake" series featuring lumberjacks, motorcycle policemen, sailors, businessmen, bikers and leathermen, Tom's favorite subjects.

Okay... a couple of serious questions...
Why is it that men view being called "gay" as a bigger insult than do women? You will never hear women insulting each other by accusing the other of being gay. Are you really that worried about appearing to be masculine that you would get all bent out of shape if someone insults you in such a manner?

Is this a phenomenon among young guys, or do older, more established men still view being called gay the ultimate insult?

Last question....
Can you appreciate another man's looks or style without being considered gay? I ask, because Nawlins and I had this discussion last night. We both said that we appreciate the beauty that we see in other women and comment on it. I used to point good looking women out to John, but he would never have pointed good looking men out to me. (admitting that he noticed another man's looks would have somehow made him gay)

uhhh stop being so gay - fm.
