Gay cowboys that eat chocolate pudding seems cliche and the right-wing
Christian extremist louts would be expected to proclaim that the movie
"Brokeback Mountain" is some how virtually a pro-gay Kama Sutra manual
for fags.
But wouldn't you know it? The movie is actually anti-gay according
to some neo-liberal cry babies.

According to author Annie Proulx, "Brokeback Mountain" is about the
destructive power of homophobia. The remarkable thing about her story is
not that Ennis and Jack are in love, it is that they are not allowed to
acknowledge that love, not even to themselves. As a result, their own
lives are miserable, they are pushed by their society in to marriages they
don't want and end up making their families miserable.
Bigots -- and I include you, Fred, what with your constant references to
"fags" -- hate the movie because it shows gay men as real humans. A lot of
gay people don't like the movie because they never had to live in the kind
of culture that Ennis and Jack lived in.

According to author Annie Proulx, "Brokeback Mountain"
is about the destructive power of homophobia.
From its description, it sounds like a movie about:
1) Two men who are miserable because they either don't
know what they are or refuse to acknowledge and accept
what they are.
2) *Because* of this, their environment *reflects*
their own problems.
In other words, they are miserable because they make
themselves miserable. Their world oppresses them for
the sole reason that they use it to reinforce these
feeling of misery.
Society has long had ways in which homosexuals could
avoid heterosexual marriage. So by getting married
to women, they not only intensify their own misery,
but they show their willingness to inflict it on
others.
Finally, and pathologically, loving each other is not
enough for them. Things would only be "right" if they
had external acknowledgement and acceptance of their
love. Love is not love if it needs the approval and
acknowledgement of others.
There is a truism that says "oppression only comes
from within". So, should we have sympathy, or even
enjoy, a movie about those who injure themselves and
want us to see them as special because of this injury?

Well, I can honestly say that I probably won't see it. I don't care
for 'cowboy' movies and I don't care for romance movies. 'Cowboy
Romance' more than doubles the pain, in my opinion. Het or Hom makes
no difference to me.
Has anyone seen Jason Bateman in 'Some of my Best Friends . . "? It
didn't last long, but it was a hilarious, well written comedy and
really showed that Jason Bateman can carry a show.

..."Brokeback Mountain"...
Anymore, when somebody tries to make an "issue" movie
about any form of sex, I try to imagine how controversial
the movie would be if instead it was about pooping. And
the director's desire to really explain the profound and
spiritual essense and intimacy of taking a dump.
For example, the big secret about "The Crying Game" is,
that she/he poops on camera at the end!
So "Brokeback Mountain" would have a review like this on
IMDB:
"The feeling lingers. The images come back, not to haunt you
but to reassure you. There is an element of hope within the
melancholic sadness of this Ang Lee masterpiece. There hasn't
been such a limpid definition of bowel movements since the
world was still innocent. Limpid, yes, that's the word that
comes to mind, remembering the shy lopsided smile after that
extraordinary crap. Who could possibly have predicted that
Heath Ledger could pass such a giant poo-poo, unquestionably
destined to be legendary. Well, Ang Lee I guess. Lee seems in
total control of this scatological experience. Every frame is
a bowel movement, the silences are exquisite, the humans are
as humans are and we're allowed to dive into their intestines
without tricks without illusions. Raw, limpid, poetic and
above all, true *****."

Let's see... movies aren't insipid or derivative enough. What kind of
topic can we aim for that will be both sensationalstic and toweringly
boring at the same time? Hey, I've got it: GAY COWBOYS!
We'll drape it in nice outdoor scenery, lingering looks, girly

30 puffy Christians who can picket the theatre! YEAH, THAT'S THE

It is not a love story, according to the woman who wrote the original short
story. The theme is not that two men are in love; the theme is that they are
not allowed to acknowledge that love in any way. The story is about how
destructive pervasive homophobia can be, and I think it should be seen by
everyone.

A kilt is a kind of skirt, not a dress. The sarong is also a kind of skirt,
as is the lungi, mundu, dhuti, kikoy, pareo, lava-lava and other similar
garments. If you are interested in men's dresses, I refer you to kaftans
and the robes worn by monks and clergy of many different religious faiths.
In fact, in any given 24 hour period, you will find hundreds of millions of
men who are wearing some variation of the skirt or dress that is standard
male attire. Anyway, if you bothered to look at my site you would see that
I am offering accessories, mostly shirts. Not kilts.
And yes, I like wearing a kilt. Why? For one thing, history shows that men
in skirts routinely beat the crap out of men in trousers. Just ask about
the Roman Legions, who wore skirts made of hardened leather straps (while
Roman nobles wore togas, a kind of dress), or talk to an Englishman about
William Wallace. The air conditioning is nice, especially on a hot day. Not
to mention the matter of virility: there is a *reason* why testicles are
outside of the body, and wrapping them up in several layers of
heat-retaining fabric greatly inhibits your chance of procreating. Other
benefits include having girls I've never before met asking me about my
underwear, and having even straight men look at me with admiration. When I
go out drinking, it is much easier to use the bathroom without slopping
myself. I've stopped having nightmares inspired by the zipper scene in
"There's Something About Mary."
But most of all, it takes big stones to wear a kilt. I've only had one for
a few weeks and have not had a chance to wear it out much, but the only
people who have gotten hostile at me for it are clearly people who couldn't
fill out a jockstrap made from half a peanut shell.

are
outside of the body, and wrapping them up in several layers of
heat-retaining fabric greatly inhibits your chance of procreating.
Other
benefits include having girls I've never before met asking me about my
underwear, and having even straight men look at me with admiration.
When I
go out drinking, it is much easier to use the bathroom without slopping
myself. I've stopped having nightmares inspired by the zipper scene in
"There's Something About Mary."
But most of all, it takes big stones to wear a kilt. I've only had one
for
a few weeks and have not had a chance to wear it out much, but the only
people who have gotten hostile at me for it are clearly people who
couldn't
fill out a jockstrap made from half a peanut shell.
Personally, I think they're dead sexy :)
I do too, to be honest. But telling *him* that would not have been
productive
:-b
LOL - Good point :)
Take a gander at Gerard Butler in a kilt. Oh my, I need a cold shower.
Wooooot!

And have you seen my line of shirts for women who like men in kilts?
http://www.cafepress.com/kiltwear/1132553
Yes! Am going to send the URL to some of my girlfriends - Would be cute if
we were wearing these the next time we go the Hunter Mountain Celtic
Festival. Hunk-O-Rama! All husbands stay at home with the kiddies :)

And yes, I like wearing a kilt. Why? For one thing, history shows that
men
in skirts routinely beat the crap out of men in trousers. Just ask
about
the Roman Legions, who wore skirts made of hardened leather straps
(while
Roman nobles wore togas, a kind of dress), or talk to an Englishman
about
William Wallace. The air conditioning is nice, especially on a hot day.
Not
to mention the matter of virility: there is a *reason* why testicles
are
outside of the body, and wrapping them up in several layers of
heat-retaining fabric greatly inhibits your chance of procreating.

Wow! Looks like fun. Here in Seattle, we have the FolkLife Festival, a
celebration of folk and traditional music from around the world which includes,
of course, Celtic. Plus lots of kilts and other similar types of clothing.

The leather ones are very expensive, yes; they run about $750. On the other
hand, a traditional 9 yard wool Scots kilt can run twice that much. The black
twill Utilikilts only cost about $160, depending on the model, so they are
relatively cheap.

Still too expensive for me. I've never paid that much for a dress (with the
exception of my wedding gown), much less for a skirt ;)

Honey, the skirts men prefer to see wouldn't cost more than $ 2.50 in
