Will Arnold Stop the Homosexualizing of America?

[QC]

Yes, according to Suzanne Fields of the Moonie Times:

If Arnold Schwarzenegger is elected governor of California, Republican manliness will be defined afterward by the size of a man's biceps. This would separate the men from the boys....

Much of this is amusing as fashion goes. But it testifies to the homosexualizing of our society. Gays are crusading not only to make their "marriages" legal, but to make the popular culture over in their image. They're making headway. Arnold Schwarzenegger, the photographs by Mapplethorpe to the contrary notwithstanding, is a strong antidote to all that.

This one is well worth reading for its entertainment value, because it's classic right wing hysteripoop. The homos are taking over and only Arnold's big muscles can save us!

Miss Prissy, go fetch Aunt Pittypat her smelling salts!

2. The Arnold nudie is all over the 'Net.

Look around and you can find it pretty easily. It's not lurid or anything, though--very tasteful.

7. Just watched "Pumping Iron"...

and was struck by many things, including the incredible narcissism of the sport and the bizarre combination of hyped-up masculinity and traditionally "female" attributes such as obsession with the appearance and preparation of one's body, what food is eaten, and the body as an indictaor of attractiveness.

And yeah, the homoerotic undertones were everywhere. :)

9. Actually homos are the ones with the muscles

Whoever wrote that article hasn't been to a gay neighborhood. That's the part of town where the guys all have bulging muscles from going to the gym so much.

10. She gets props for using the word "homosexualizing"

I'll have to start using that in casual conversation more often.
