Reply #71: not at all [View All]

[Two Americas]

I wasn't thinking about you at all, but remembering back to my own adolescence and the pressure we were all under to conform to masculine gender stereotypes.

As I said, this is not about people being offended, and certainly not about whether or not you are.

I did not say, and certainly would not say that "all straight men are masculine and all gay men are feminine." Quite to the contrary.

Whether or not the message in the ad is homophobic has absolutely nothing to do with what light you see gay men in.

I did not say, and would not say that you can "tell by a person's mannerisms what their sexual orientation is."

The OP is not mine, by the way.

Again, I didn't say anything about Nike, or what they might be or not be or might or might not be doing. I am talking about the message in the add.

So I am still not following you and I don't understand what you are objecting to or arguing about. You keep refuting things that no one said.
