BT FRAGRANC FOR GAY MEN?
I was wonrg what some of you might suggt as the bt agranc for gay men? Several years ago, a pany lled "Qut Internatnal" released... * cologne for gay guys *
I thk 's surprisg bee 's an ad validatg the existence of gay men, om 1978.
Nevermd how stupid the ia that gay men need their own scent is. Bee they hope the gay men intify wh the prodt and buy if is advertised as a product for them.

I agree wh Sadie - on one level, 's surprisg jt to see gay men as a targeted marketg group (although I don't know where the ad me om - 'd be more surprisg a mastream magaze than a specifilly gay-oriented one). So I have to wonr if the advertisers thought gay men were more likely to buy logne than straight men, and that ma them a viable target group. It uld be a really subtle way of broadstg that you're gay to other gay people whout straight people necsarily noticg.

I agree wh Sadie: I thk what's surprisng to someone 2010 (apart om the weirdns of a logne "exclively" for gay men) is the ia that such an ad, and ed product, was around 1978.
It was the year that Saturday Night Fever brought dis culture to the mastream, and dis had a strong gay affiliatn. Okay, so a lot of the parents and grandparents who liked them may have been unaware they were gay, as were those of who were still junr high, but most everybody else got .
