I'm shocked. I'm offended. I'm relieved that I don't dress anything like this.

Details Magazine ran this article wondering whether this person was gay or Asian. Nobody should be making this comparison in the first place. The magazine argues this is just another in a series of gay or fill-in-the-blank articles meant to highlight social stereotypes and that it wasn't their intention to offend. Really, how hasn't it? According to sites, Details has apologized, but to whom? Yes, the gay/lesbian community. As a result, Asian American groups are in an uproar and are planning protests at the magazine in a couple of weeks.
