A. The shirt itself goes very hard.

B. Usually I roll my eyes when people talk about the whole “Alpha/Beta Energy” BS, but this actually has me rethinking that entire POV. Sometimes just being brave enough to be yourself, whether it’s in the deep south or anywhere else, takes a lot of balls. ❤️

    I mean, that was my takeaway. If everyone knows and accepts that you like pussy, then wearing a shirt that says “I ❤️ pussy” is just kinda skeevy, if not wildly inappropriate. If you’re in a place where people either deny your sexual orientation exists or don’t want your orientation to exist, then you’re a badass for being explicit about what you like, and I’m comfortable with light applause.

      They’re in the French Quarter. She could be looking off camera and smirking at somebody yelling in a megaphone while telling her she’s going to burn in hell, or a middle aged guy in a mustache rides t-shirt raising his cup to her bc he admires the game. Coin toss.

      Why would you assume she was gay, if it wasn’t obvious from the shirt?

      Edit: possible i misread, and we’re actually agreeing. Didn’t realize you weren’t the person being responded to.

        Couple of them have a certain stereotype outlook. As a gay I have an eye for that.

          Well, in case you were being serious, the point i was responding to was the ‘if it’s obvious to everyone that she’s gay, then wearing a shirt with a shirt boating about it is somehow a little cringe’.

          My point was both that just because someone looks stereotypically gay doesn’t mean they are, so it’s fair to wear a shirt proudly admitting it, even if it is a little over the top. The earlier comment about it being similar to sometimes Uncle wearing a shirt offering ‘mustache rides’ is completely off the mark since that is more of a crude case of a man trying to either boat about his manliness, or defect implications that he’s gay.

          These shirts are basically leaning into the ‘f-you, this is who i am’, unless they were specifically wearing them to a lesbian meet up hoping to impress other girls with the words on their shirt. If that were the case then it would match almost exactly to the mustache rides example.
