Really? We're going to call it "failed heterosexuality?" I'm going to call unfortunate implications here and ask that we come up with a better name.
Hide / Show RepliesIt is a known fact that many closet cases grow moustaches in order to differentiate themselves from Camp Gays.
We shall rename it "Politically Correct Facial Hair One Tries To Grow To Reassert Their Masculinity After Coming To The Conclusion That They Enjoy It Up The Pooper"
All in favour say "aye"
I will agree there are potential Unfortunate Implications here, though I as a gay man also find the trope hilarious. XD
If this is gonna be a trope, it should be clear that it's about closeted people trying to appear heterosexual via 'stachedness. As it is, the page amounts to, "Here's a list of people who I think look stupid with mustaches."
I say we rename the page "Gaystache" and reimagine it as a trope about moustaches that emphasize a man's gayness.
