A Look at Viseohomosexualis, aka "Gayface"

The kids at my favorite new blog Pen15 have taken on a PhD-thesis sized topic -- Gayface. It's a vastly intimidating subject, to be sure, but an important one, and a definitive scientific treatise was sorely lacking. Among its more fascinating insights is this outtake from the "Origins of Gayface" section:

The Origins of Gayface  Really not sure. But a quick glance through history reveals that Gayface has a long and historical presence in the world. I mean, take a look at Akenaten, a pharaoh from 18th Dynasty Egypt (ca. 1370 B.C.E.). It's true that he was the father of King Tutankhamen (Tut), but who wasn't trying to pass on his bloodline in ancient Egypt? As my colleague Rob pointed out, Akenaten not only sports Gayface, but is a prime example of CSL, or to us in the business, Cock Sucking Lips. Also, you may note that even though this statue is nearly 4000 years old, it could just as easily be a cast photo from some community theater's production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, right? I mean how far have we really come?

Not far, I'm afraid, as an archaelogical dig in east Tunisia recently unearthed what is largely believed to be the world's first MAC counter, where ancient Mesopotamian retail sluts discovered the benefits of creme foundation and earthtone lipliners.
