Default GQ's Style Guy

I often check GQ for style tips, so I know what shirt looks stupid and which one doesn't. They also have interesting articles on politics, music, sports, etc.

I was browsing through their in-house fashion guru (The Style Guy)'s section and I came across this page.

A caring homophobe writes: The Style Guy: GQ

I think he did a really good job setting this guy straight (no pun intended).

Hats off to the Style Guy!

Epic win.
Did the guy actually think sending a homophobic letter to GQ would achieve anything?

Apparently so.

There's a lot of guys that send in letters asking, "If I follow GQ's style tips, will I look gay?" And he usually responds along the lines of, "Style doesn't make you gay, being attracted to the same gender makes you gay." Or, "Why are you worried about looking gay? Clothes won't make you gay."

I have so much more respect for GQ than I already did.
