A mother complained about a school's traditional cross-dress day, on the basis that it promotes homosexuality. The tradition was called "TWIRP Day" and I definately agree that there's a twirp involved in this story.
However, this has spawned conversations about exactly what constitutes male and female clothing. Eventually
copperwise came up with this brilliancy, which ended up on
metaquotes:
"I just took a quick inventory.
My dress is definitely female, but she's bi-sexual and submissive. My shirt, on the other hand, is female and completely straight. My bra appears to be male and gay, my shoes are male but bi-curious. My panties are female, and militantly lesbian.
My earrings refuse to answer the question.
Right now they're all engaged in a debate as to whether or not my bracelet has sold out to the Patriarchy. Will have to get back to you on that."
