Chuck Mentioned in the Reverse Cowgirl
Link to the article: here.
Quick quote:
Because most male writers are dorks. Who wish they were tough guys. Because male writers are too confused by feminism and women in general to portray "real men" on the page, much less in reality. And Palahniuk is their role model? Palahniuk is gay. How the leader of the New Manliness turned out to be a mostly closeted homosexual is a source of endless mystery to me.

Gertrude Stein said it best, "To write is to write is to write" you have to do it to do it.
Stuff about me
I don't understand why the "enlightened" choose to perpetuate a stereotype that gay men can't be manly, or that sensitivity/emotion is something precluded from heterosexual men. I find articles like this tremendously boring and stilted. This is the kind of pseudo-intellectual navel-gazing bullshit that college kids talk about at coffee shops at 2AM to make themselves feel enlightened.
Hot.
Since when was Chuck closeted?
There's a reason this article is in a blogger website and not the Times. Not that everything in the Times is true, but there's a certain amount of quality control. Journalistic integrity. This is more tripe from another turd who failed a simple college course.
The premise is flawed.
Being gay does not negate masculinity.
Doesnt make much sense... Just because someone enjoys football doesnt make them a homosexual its a good sport. Its like you almost had a point except not a good one

I still don't see any reason for this to even be a thread. As a topic, sure, i can see it. But who cares about some random blog posting on it? Is that some sort of world famous blog that i'm just oblivious too? Did that Asgenar write the piece and was desperate to get someone to read it? He didn't have a whole lot to say in that first post, kinda like he already said want he wanted in the blog type of thing, ya know?
it's just very odd.
chuck is gay, and chuck is all man. look at the shit he does. the shit he's done. i mean, chuck came up with fight club after getting into a fistfight with a stranger while camping. i want to say there is a difference between being gay and being queen. "Oh, fooey, i chipped a nail!" slap fights and drag shows. but that still doesnt mean a womanly gay man wont beat the fuck out of you if you disrespect him/her. little rock has a surprisingly huge population of the gay and queen. two gay bars in little rock proper and everyone knows about them, most have frequented them. in other words, not an abnormal aspect of life in this city within this red state. so, ive been around and worked with and have been friends with quite a few dudes who have the gay. and judging masculinity doesnt have anything to do with lifestyle sexual preference.

Monkey, you're my favorite monkey, by the far. I couldn't've said it better myself. Well, maybe I could have, but I surely don't want to! P:
It makes perfect sense to me. The dirty little secret is, the whole manliness thing? It's gay. Bunch of guys gettin' together to watch football, to watch other men chase and tackle each other? C'mon, figure it out. "Tough guys" are just repressed homosexuals.
Just look at Wikipedia's page on masculinity.

Look at the pictures.
...you know what that drill represents, right? A big cock.
