December 6, 2013 Dear Cosmo Girls, If shows like Sex and the City did anything for gay men, they packaged and sold them to women as well-dressed, pun-spewing, "totes fab" life accessories. The straight woman's impulse to tokenize gay men pervades today, everywhere from Bravo to Whole Foods — where Cosmopolitan.com style editor Charles Manning recently encountered a drunk woman who tried to set him up with someone. He responds ingeniously to this woman and many others who say things they shouldn't to gay men all the time in this post. Are you sick of people saying things to you they shouldn't? Tweet us @Cosmopolitan with the hashtag #CosmoLists and you could see your idea as an article on Cosmopolitan.com.
