Retrophilia: Gay Tuna

gaytunasm.jpg

retrophilia (ret troh FEE lee uh) n. 1 An intense attraction for things of the past. 2 a weekly series for popsucker wherin the irrepressible Wootini reveals the horrors of the past to the present to avoid making the same mistakes in the future.

See, now if Jessica Simpson had just eaten Star-Kist tunafish, she wouldn't have been so confused as to whether it was tuna or chicken in the can. Of course, this advertising campaign from 1960 is still kind of confusing to me. Go ahead and make the jump and see if you agree...

Huh. So are they saying that if you like the fisherman enough to give him a smooch on the cheek, you'll like his tuna fish, too? I don't know, but I do know this is a pretty gay ad for tuna fish. I mean, I know it's just an illustration, but the features are a little feminine, he's got a crazy tan going on, and the big hoop earring is a dead giveaway. And it's in his right ear, which as I was led to understand when I was growing up, is an indication of homosexuality. Which is why all the boys in high school who pierced their left ears weren't gay at all. At all.

So if you're looking for gay tuna, just look for the fisherman with the earring. Wonder if it tastes any different than straight tuna... Maybe it's a little pinker...

And girls who like girls who like stuff!
