That’s gross. My poor eyes.
Joseph
All five of them are gross!

There is less eyebrow plucking in an episode of “America’s Next Top Model”

Stray homophobic slur aside, their publicists know that we gays are some of their biggest fans.
Jersey Shores offers delicious camp and isn’t without self-referential irony.

How many ugly tattoos must a person have before it’s obvious that he hates himself. What kind of life does a person have to wake up one day and think: “I want to look like some 1970’s ex-con with prison ink.” Secksi

Oh give it a rest, ggreen. What is it with this gay hatred of tattoos? it’s really annoying that gay folk are not sure what to do with anyone who doesn’t fit into some convenient little box.

Jersey guys looking a little thick in the waist. They’re gonna clock 350 by the time they’re 35. If you doubt it, run over to Jersey and have a look. All that paste’ faggioli (pasta fazool to you) and cappecole. It’s amazing to me, Italians in Italy don’t even eat that stuff. And everybody is pretty much slim in Italy. America “rooned” Italians. LOL
As for the ink, I think it’s gotten way out of hand, too. But if you want to take your young body and turn it into a tagger wall in south central, it’s your business.

Wow, I can’t believe you’re calling these guys fat. I’m detecting a heck of a lot of jealousy, to be honest. I’m also glad to see someone who isn’t afraid of a bit of self-expression…
Johnny
I wouldn’t call any of them fat either.
I was basically forced to watch the first couple episodes – and I found their loatish behavior boring and offensive. But, hate to say it, they ended up growing on me.
They definitely need some rounding of the edges and maybe need to actually go to Italy – before they start shooting off their mouths about what it’s like being ‘Italian.’
BTW – Italians from Italy eat all kinds of ‘fatty’ foods – but they’re on the slim side because they eat within reason – and they walk a whole lot.
Ciao Belli

Dr and Johnny……You’re right Ronnie is not fat!!!!!. In fact he is very in shape…..’cause round is a shape!!!…….Look at his pic……He gots a serious case of Gumoobs! (gut and manboobs)…
And PS: Vinnie, the self described “momma’s boy”…is on his way to being “Gay boy”………………

This photo captures those Italian guys just before they go to seed. In a year or so, they’ll be lumpy, dumpy and frumpy.

They’re all getting a bit chunked out.

@plasticoduress: Too much pie. That’s their problem.

So when will all you wonderful and perfect physical specimens be sending Queerty your pics for the rest of us to criticize?
Yeah, that’s what I thought.

Were we s’posed to assume Terry Richardson is a gay man? Otherwise, I’m missing the relevancy to Queertyville.
No matter, the ozone layer is being eroded by all the petrochemicals sprayed on the hair of the Jersey Shore guys….I only hope the show starts putting subtitles on the screen so those of us in the Midwest can decipher the odd grunts that occur between the Tanning Session and the Gym. If there’s meaning there, I’m missing it.
It’s still a less depressing show than the news, so I can’t be no hater.
Johnny
Look – Out of the lot – I find Vinnie the most appealing.
I don’t find their bodies particularly attractive – I tend to go for thinner guys. I just think that flat out calling them ‘fat’ is a reach. Perhaps a little thick in some areas, but ‘fat’ – nah.
But, who knows as we sit here on our computers what they’ll look like in a few years? Many of us have had to face similar situations when our metabolism slowed down at a certain age – and when the same food in the same quantities that we consumed seemed to have a different affect on our bodies.
Then decision time – so more exercise? less food? or a combination? or least appealing – let it fly?
I personally think that these guys are a bit smarter than we’re giving them credit. Sure they might succumb to whatever madness typically takes any ‘real world’ toss off.
No doubt that these guys have some growing up to do, as I’ve said. But the dumping on them is a way excessive.

GGGreen: Well, you keep wearing those tweed sportscoats with the elbow patches and the creased pants and the rep ties, and the rest of us will wear tattoos.
