(28,497 posts)Everyone here, on facebook, and twitter are all har-haring over this, but wasn't the original photo har-haring enough? Why dress him like a budding drag queen unless the point is to emasculate him? And why would wearing women's boots emasculate him? HOMOPHOBIA.

Who really believes dressing in women's boots is emasculating?

(28,497 posts)And dressing straight men in women's clothing has historically been the visual equivalent of calling him a sissy, gay, or a fag, words that have often accompanied images of straight men dressing in women's clothing.

(28,497 posts)I agree that "most notions of masculinity are myths," but they're not told to little boys who grow up to be confused men. These myths are taught to boys and girls, and are reinforced generationally to perpetuate systems of white supremacy and homophobia.
...so you added girls to what I wrote.
I agree. But this belief that some shame is inherent in men wearing wonen's clothes is a bias actually held by the governor, not necessarily by someone who might think he wears those boots well.
