Once a year for nearly a century, the hilly streets of San Francisco shut down for Bay to Breakers, a seven-mile race from the Embarcadero to Ocean Beach. Traditionally, however, Bay to Breakers has transformed into a debaucherous day of drinking and costumes that gives thousands of revelers a reason to rise and shine early Sunday morning.
San Francisco’s straight guys have made it their version of gay Pride by donning bright colors, body paint, tiny underwear and not much else, while the girls recycle slutty Halloween by putting on outlandishly sex costumes inspired by Katy Perry and other counter revolutionaries.
On Sunday, nearly 50,000 folks participated in the 2012 B2B. Drinking in public is been officially condemned by authorities, but there’s power in numbers and the city has become accustomed to the street-corner dance parties, the stumbling nudists and red cups galore.
Click through to see some fun times from Bay to Breakers 2012.

I seemed to have missed the pics of the guys in slutty outfits. As for them being str8t, err, OK, if you say so.

How do you know these guys are totally straight? Is there a test for it?
Camerado
That dude in flannel must be the slutty one. I can’t even tell you what blue bandana, worn in the front is code for.
Stupid
I’m not sure which was sluttier, the guys dressed like MC Hammer or the guy (?)in
Victorian grim-reaper garb. Oh, you straight sluts!
Stupid
No. Clearly, the guy in the green afro wig is the sluttiest of them all. Good job at titling this set of random photos, Queerty.

The guys in #8 doin the Always Sunny Eagle wrestling team are probably str8 (and definitely sexy) but everyone else….questionable (even some of the “STOP! Hammer Time” bros)
Everyone, except the Power Bottom Rangers. Nothing to question.

Yes, of course you can tell if someone is gay or straight from a picture.
Of course.
Red Assault
Slutty?

Ugh, you hired a straight girl again, didn’t you?
Oh, ok
@GC: You can, the gay ones are hot.
GC
@Oh, ok: “Gay guys are all just so cute and sexy”.

I was at this event. The straight guys were hot. Various costumes included speedos, running tights without undergear and plenty of shirtless guys.

@Red Assault: OMG, you are so right, it makes total sense. It’s the str8t girls at Queerty that come up with these posts.

@Spike: You always know that a straight girl has been writing an article about something gay when she uses words like ‘slutty’ to describe anything. Or when she uses a phrase like “as gay as Richard Simmons.” Or when she does something like suggest that straight guys are the only ones who would be in a race… those homos don’t do physical things… they’re not into sports. She also doesn’t capitalize “gay” but does capitalize “Pride.” And then adds an “s” onto the end of “Halloweens” for some reason. (and only a straight girl would classify a “slutty” costume as something you’d only wear on Hallowe’en.
At least it’s not as offensive as that “8 reasons straight men should try being gay” that listed things like “to gays, sex is like a handshake” or “you’ll dress better” or “you’ll dance more.”
