^^yes, the plunging neckline is a very feminine aspect...but, there's a pretty substantial difference between tanks and u-necks...the u-necks that we are discussing here are generally drapey, blousey and inherently feminine...while there isn't an item that is much more iconic of modern male sexuality than the "wifebeater"...

i don't understand why you would think that gender and sexuality issues wouldn't be things to discuss on a forum like this one, chrono...it's hard to think of a more classic way of expressing or interpreting a person's sexuality than through clothing...to question an article of clothing's gay-quotient is a perfectly legitimate thing to do here, i think

yeah...and since that movie came out, i've heard (and thought) that a shirt or a jacket might be "a little too brokeback"
