IS A SIGN OF BEG GAY IF A MALE WEARS A WHE TROERS THE UK?

Whilst Google has a few referenc on the topic (most of which date back a uple years ago), some of which do mentn some sort of implic associatn between whe troers and beg gay, I thk this belief is no more than an urban legend.

As we found out om Joe Srborough's vis to The View this week and the backlash that ensued, your pants n apparently be gay.

Real gay. Like other piec of clothg, there are variatns among gen and speci of pant rangg om pleats, cut, f, lor, and recently, and thanks to polil figur like Joe Srborough and Anthony Weer, gay or not gay has bee a termg characteristic.

Siarly, Anthony Weer's choice of bright-red pant at a DOMA lg rally earlier this summer, and Weer's own ments about them prompted The New York Tim's Lawrence Down to ask: "Is he really sayg he hasn’t had time to change out of his gay pants?

BEWARE: ALL OF THE THGS ARE GAY
