reenkaI'm looking at this gallery of um, 'realistic gay men' artist Michael Breyette, and even though... I mean, even though it's not the extreme of Tom of Finland by any means (...btw, I find the Rob Clarke uber!man animation especially disturbing hilarious in a WTF sort of way). Still.... Still, it's enough to make me wonder about whether I'm really (half) straight because duuuuuude, but the 'classic male form', all abs and hair and manliness, omigod, it does absolutely nothing for me. Wow.
Actually, looking at that animation, I mean, I know it's supposed to be funny, but I find myself thinking that actually most non-gay men are like this also. Penis/muscle/space/homosocial obsession, anyone? Holy cow. In this sense, I think that most 'normal' men are equally obsessed with each other whether they're straight or gay, it's just more obviously sexual with gay men, I swear. Jeez. This cartoon especially is cracking me up 'cause I'm like HAHAHAH I BET STRAIGHT MEN HAVE DREAMS LIKE THIS ALL THE TIME, AHAHAHAHAHAH. Um. -.-
Also, this makes me think of the inevitable (future) gay culture in space, y'know, where you just bet there'll probably be more men than women, right, just like in any military/adventure operation. Wow. All you'd have to do is disinhibit them, and boom!
Just. Looking at aaaall the muscles everywhere on both sites, I can only think that this is what they like. As in, men are as body-image obsessed as women are, if not moreso. *__* (And this also makes me appreciate even more why all my main fandoms are either cartoons or books, 'cause duuude, 'real men' are just. Well. Ack. *backs away slowly*)
Also: this icon of Spock makes everything better. Yes. And Lana Manckir's evil!smiling!DE!Snape is just, um, too cute. See, this is my type'a guy :D :D :D

(...meaning, just like in many ways women wear make up to please themselves & each other, so may men exercise/build-up muscle for themselves & their peers-- that is, competition-- as well). I think comparing one's body to others of the same gender is, perhaps, inherently a bit queer. I'm not sure. But yeah.
No need to be sorry for random comments. I love random and also comments, so together it works very well :>
