‘Out’ Gives ‘NY Post’ Vocab. Lesson

outvenndiagram.jpg
The Out kids have Venn diagram fever, too!

The gay glossy scoured the past year’s worth of The NY Post to find all the people labeled “flamboyant”, one of the tab-rag’s favorite gay synonyms. As you can see, the Rupert Murdoch doesn’t seem to know the meaning of “flamboyant”. Good thing the Out staffers did their job for them.

Lesson learned: not all gays are flamboyant, nor are all flamboyant folk gay. And, what’s more, the magazine discovered a new species: the flamgay.

I’m pretty sure Ricky Martin and Little Richard are homosexuals, though.

I agree that Ricky Martin and Little Richard are gay. Where is Wentworth on this list?

In my opinion, we need MORE Venn diagrams. They look so retro-60s groovy, too.

Guess Wentworth hasn’t been called flamboyant by The Post, but surely only a matter of time…

You can place me smack in the middle, between Elton and Perez.

Flamgay would be a great term to add to my lexicon, but I think it can be improved. Flambogay? Flay? I just sense we haven’t reached the potential there, yet.
