Why I'm CONVINCED These Guys Aren't Gay

Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Mon, Nov 17, 2008 at 1:48 PM

Yes, this is a "French Disco" song. Yes, the video stars the French boy band known as "Pipones." And yet, I remain unconvinced the three guys depicted in the video are gayer than Gaylord McGayerson, the grand marshal of Gay Town's annual gay pride parade. My reasons follow:

1) Gay men don't drop their trousers down to their ankles while standing at a urinal.
2) Gay men don't feign interest in women -- unless they are Republicans.
3) Gay men would never lower themselves to such base, unimaginative choreography.
4) Gay men don't dress up as American tourists -- even to be funny.

And yet... gay men do write the catchiest, ear buggiest songs -- and this number definitely falls under that category. YOU MAKE THE CALL!

"the catchiest, ear buggiest songs"

Don't you mean ear-buggery-est?

(Sorry, couldn't resist.)

Totally a straight dude's idea of what gay is.

While I don't necessarily agree with Humpy's points, these boys are the worst dancers I've seen since the other night at the Silverado. So yeah, they're probably straight (ish).
