\\\"Of course, both concepts qualify completely as Truth in Television, in both cultures. \\\"Gay men\\\" are about as hard to pin down as \\\"men\\\" period. From Japan alone we got contrasting examples in Ash Crimson from The King Of Fighters, who is very popular in Japan but is hated everywhere else for being flamboyant and looking girly, and Kenshiro from the Fist of the North Star, who is universally considered to be one of the manliest man in fiction, despite (or even because) doing a lot of crying (crying Manly Tears, that is).\\\"

What does this mean \\\"Gay men are about as hard to pin down as men period\\\". What is hard to pin down about men? Maybe what is meant by man is the concept of masculinity, or perhaps it is an attempt to be inclusive of transgender and similar concepts, but to me is just comes across that whoever wrote this needs to retake sex ed. Perhaps it should be reworded?
