Walt Whitman was gay, right? Just like this ad campaign.

More compelling than Ted Kennedy's 1981 endorsement: "Except for hot interns, nothing comes between me and my Calvins."

Levi's remains appallingly silent on the epidemic of those felled in their prime by the scourge of camel toe.

That's nothing. The whole Vanity Fair article isn't written by Levi, it's written by Levi's™.

This is just like the time Sears Tuffskins jeans mourned the passing of Spiro Agnew.

I really hate Levi's current ad campaign (this as much a part of it as their cheesy ass posters in the subway). Almost as much as I hate The Gap using that American Apparel-y font in their new ads.

The title threw me and I thought this was gonna be a post about hot Levi, Bristol's baby daddy, get all hot and bothered in some oil rig some other hot guys and I was gonna have to clear my calendar for the rest of the afternoon. Thanks a lot for the preemptive boner Hamilton. (Wait are sure those sort of pics dont exist?)

Listen up people, cause I'm not going to tell you again (well, maybe I will). The contributions gays have made to greater society are enormous. ENORMOUS!!! Not to be catty, but the whole muti-zillion dollar $$$ fashion and retail sectors of this great nation (and globe, for that matter) are driven by the designs of mostly gay men. I said MOSTLY, not exclusively!!! The look of our world has certainly been enhanced by the level of creativity amongst "the gays". Undeniably. The great writer "Fran Liebowitz" once said, "If you take away the contributions of gays to our society, all you would have left is The Price is Right"!! Love Bob Barker and all, but... At any rate, look around. Gays take pride in their appearance, live by the motto of "be fabulous", throw great parties, keep disco alive, keep Broadway alive, apply the makeup to almost every Sports Illustrated model in that swimsuit issue that all the boys masturbate to, on and on. That's just the "frilly" stuff (poor choice of words?) Anyway, now on to the serious. Gays pay taxes, approach everything they do fully embracing a quest for perfection, have fought for their rights over the years in an organized, non violent crusade, are Americans most of all, and deserve to feel the "Liberty and Justice for all" so prominently mentioned in the Pledge of Allegiance. Personally, I think it is time for an even stronger push towards equality. When speaking of "prop 8" and gay "marriage", I don't want to play semantics. If "marriage" is considered to be the union of a man and a woman, so be it. I, personally am not "married" to that word. A same-sex pledge of love can be "called" anything as far as I am concerned. It's the rights and benefits that I am after. Once again society is missing a tremendous opportunity. With so many abandoned children the world over (some heterosexuals do use their sacred ability to produce another human being very casually) homosexual couples are the perfect vehicle to a stable life for these "extra" children. And contrary to what some heterosexuals believe, all homosexual men do not hate women. After all, we all had Mothers. It's time to look now at the world and how we live in it, and recognize the rights of homosexuals to live their lives without judgement and denial of basic human rights. Judgement is not a virtue. Imagine a world where blacks still had to ride at the back of the bus. Same thing here. I will save the abortion discussion, as well as the legalizing of marijuana for another day. You're welcome.
