All I keep thinking through this is that Americans can be such prudes when it comes to nudity and sexuality. I mean it's the human body, it's a beautiful thing in all it's varaitions.
Then there is this macho posturing like being stared at is the worst thing ever. It's not like the people are staring because your are fugly or they are disgusted by you. Would you rather that or would you rather think that you are so fucking hot that you have the ability to turn on all sexes simply by showing up in the room. Most guys would LOVE to be able to have that ability.
The thing that bothers me most though is the way the original poster throws around "Homo", "giraffe up the butt" and the a little AIDS comment for good measure, then says he's "not being homophobic". That certainly is homophobic language if ever there was any, and especially in that combination. You could have said the same thing without using any of those phrases, but you chose to use them and reveal your true colors. Try throwing "Nig", "Bitch", "Ho", "Chink", or any other pejorative around the same way and see what you get called.
That's my two cents on this.
