U of M Offers “How To Be Gay” Class

Posted by: Geaked In: Thinking Out Loud

Yep.  You heard it here first.

U of M Course

The University of Michigan is offering a “How to be Gay: Male Homosexuality and Initiation” course.

From the course description:

Just because you happen to be a gay man doesn’t mean that you don’t have to learn how to become one…

…In particular, we will examine a number of cultural artifacts and activities that seem to play a prominent role in learning how to be gay: Hollywood movies, grand opera, Broadway musicals, and other works of classical and popular music, as well as camp, diva-worship, drag, muscle culture, taste, style, and political activism… 

…Additional note. This course is not a basic introduction to gay male culture, but an exploration of certain issues arising from it. It assumes some background knowledge…

Feel free to discuss these issues in my Comments section:

  • “Where are my State tax dollars going?
  • “What the f*@K? is THAT?”
  • “Where is the  ‘How to be a Metrosexual’ course?”

Thoughts?
