Step Right Up, Become Teen Vogue‘s Next Gay Best Friend!

If Marie Claire can hand a spread to the winner of America’s Next Top Model, can’t Teen Vogue — which is getting to the bottom of this GAY BEST FRIEND TREND — at least feature a front of the book blurb to Eric Thor, who clearly wants to become the next must-have accessory?

BUBBA, you’re pathetically rude. Keep that thought to yourself. And no, he’s not ugly.

While beauty is in the eye of the beholder, every time I see some comment about how “ugly” or whatnot someone is, I always wish the author would show a few selfies. You know, for comparison purposes. Yet they never do, oddly enough.

@Eric Thor: Oh yes I forgot but Nikko and PWWO remind me – as mentioned beauty is only a personal opinion but I do agree you’re quite removed from ugly.

@MissLaWandalicious: Beauty, eye, beholder and all that, so differing opinions are entirely acceptable and valid. What is I think less acceptable is downright rudeness.

YES! YES! YES! Smart kid!
Although I greatly appreciate Teen Vogue for trying to encourage straight, young women to embrace the gay (male) population, the message is clearly lost in the dehumanizing and shallow babble. (Then again, did expect anything more from such a magazine?)

-Speaking of shallow babble, I am appalled by some of the comments above me!

Teen Vogue. Boycotting this magazine will not be a problem for me.
