Something like six years ago I was at Harvey’s Comedy Club, no doubt with my sister because I’m not sure I ever went there without her, and saw this giggle-worthy comedian.
He was talking about cl
ubbing and the tight shirts and other things that people wear and then starts talking about women and their glitter. He proclaims “Whoever told women that we want them to sparkle?!?!”
Now, years and years later glitter is great still but the concept of sparkling pulls on my gag reflex as I imagine this disgusting (and smelly from what i hear) manĀ walking around in the sun as though he has a skin disease.
All of these things pop into my head on the bus ride home from work tonight. I think that perhaps that shit they call Twilight has given men the “OK ” they were looking for when it comes to sparkling, that’s the only idea I can come up with as I notice that there are three guys, and not even flaming queer guys, two were almost gang-banger wanna be looking guys, sitting on the bus going their way wearing hoodies that had sequins on them.
Yes…sequins
I’m sorry if I missed something but when did shiny men stop being…excuse the term but .. GAY!?
Yeah I’m straight thuggin’ and I wanna SPARKLE while I’m doin’ it, G!
I think that’s as psuedo-ghetto I couldn’t be more of a white girl if I tried g-funk talk, that I can get.
But years ago the question was posed “Who said we wanted our girls to sparkle?”
Now, in 2010 I wonder how you can be sure who’s who if everyone sparkles.
Unless of course this is the first big step towards the world giving in to the unisexual anyone who’s still moving’s sexy way of life that I think sounds just lovely. I think I’m going to call this a good sign!
