Imagine an overweight middle aged man wearing a shirt that says "moustache rides: $5".
Yea, not exactly alpha, huh?
Right, but this isn't that.
This is a pack of lesbians in the deep south, not giving a fuck about what anyone thinks, even as the country is being driven towards civil war by uptight fundamentalists who hate freedom.
They're out to have a good time and enjoy themselves instead of looking to everyone else to see how they can judge them and insert themselves into everyone else's business. Looks like an easy going group of freedom loving Americans with a good sense of humor.
Context matters, so pretty fucking alpha in my book 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
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.
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.
No worries.
