Guest EXPAT Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 There is a debate going on (Facebook debate) that these are too "gay" to wear. What makes something "too gay" for anyone or especially straight people who like to label things as too gay?? Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 It could make a straight guy look like he is insecure in a sense. There is a certain image each person gives to others. People use clothes and accessories to complement good features and diminish negative feature to creative a positive image. I like the pair and I want to put them on a sunny day in the fall and walk in the park. I think a pair of shorts will go well with them so the shoes can bring some color to my bare calves. EXPAT, I love the fact that you love shoes... I think we are meant to be... Quote
Members Suckrates Posted August 28, 2012 Members Posted August 28, 2012 Clothing and shoes with "Logos" are tacky and "passe' ". They are only for people that really cant afford them and are trying to show they have some status. Most likely got them at the outlet store and are last years goods anyway. Bleh ! Quote
Guest Allessio77 Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 Are they gay shoes....of course...lol...but very confident straightbois could were them too. Quote
Members MsGuy Posted August 29, 2012 Members Posted August 29, 2012 Looks more like a pair of house slippers to me. Quote
Members Lucky Posted August 29, 2012 Members Posted August 29, 2012 Here are some shoes that might pass muster with MsGuy: Quote

I could never wear anything with the logo soo out there. Quote
Members axiom2001 Posted August 30, 2012 Members Posted August 30, 2012 I don't like these particular pair of Gucci shoes nor the ones which followed. They're not my "cup of tea". I like good designer shoes but not ones with too much flair. I would not necessarily classify those Gucci shoes as "being gay." They are just a little much with the colors and the letter "G" stamped and/or woven all over! Quote
Members MsGuy Posted August 31, 2012 Members Posted August 31, 2012 LOL, ruby slippers? How can you get more gay than ruby slippers? Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 What! You guys think you will be safe after making fun of shoes? You never know when shoe fairies will take your favorite pair of shoes at night... Quote
AdamSmith Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 You never know when shoe fairies will take your favorite pair of shoes at night... They already have.

AdamSmith Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 LOL, ruby slippers? How can you get more gay than ruby slippers? Somehow "I want to go to Castel Gandolpho" just doesn't have quite the ring. Although now The Shoes of the Fisherman takes on a whole new inflection. I realize I am damning myself to one or other of the nine bolgias with this. One can only hope the punishment is not to have Richard Dawkins at one's left ear lecturing for all eternity. Quote
