"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Well, since estrogen is a girly thing, then all gay men must have higher counts of estrogren because all gay men are girly poofters. Duh.

Yeah, I'm minded of leathermen I've seen at the Folsom Street Fair and girliness was not so much the order of the day.

Just think about the image in Scrooged when Bill Murray gets on the elevator with the grim reaper.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
