Make-up isn't good. It's pretty unhealthy and both men and women really shouldn't be using it all that often. Its gotten a whole lot better over the years through testing and whatnot, but it's not good. Eat Healthy, exercise and a good nights rest do more than any amount of make-up.

I personally don't really care. I don't really think it looks "gay" as much as it just makes them look extremely effeminate. But in many Asian cultures, that's not really gay at all in my experience. Anyway it seems like all in good fun so I'm fine with it Reminds me of when I tried dressing up as L for Halloween... lol eyeliner.

People need to grow up and advance a little out of the dark ages.
I'm all for fucking up those homophobes who use the term "gay" in a derogatory manner - but that makeup really looks like shit, so the complaints are actually justified.

It's pretty funny; it makes them all look like Asian Davie Bowies :D
|
I can't express my honest thoughts about that picture freely without getting banned and insulting the players so I'l just say that I don't like it and I hope they give up on that. :D
Really no more please.

It's not gay. If it were gay they would look good. At any rate, GSL should do something else.

Progamers don't eat healthy, many don't exercise much, and koreans on average do not get much sleep.
Did you see nestea last night? He looked like shit.
As a guy, this doesn't bother me, but I don't blindly say he looks great.

Yeah, but it's not gay. None of the gay men I know wear makeup as far as I know. Or dress like women for that matter. Halloween notwithstanding.

If anything this is great for exposing a lot of the latent bigotry and homophobia in the SC community. I'd hoped it might be different from somewhere like FPS games where homophobia and sexism ('I totally raped that faggot) is accepted and encouraged, but maybe not.

Seriously though seems a bit overboard, GSL trolling?

wait that's real? I could have sworn this was some sort of troll thread and that image was photoshopped.
I think it looks ridiculous but different culture I suppose.

I donate to the HRC (human rights campaign) which is an advoacy group for gay/lesbian/transgendered rights in the USA and participate locally in gay rights organizations. I still think this looks retarded. Hating this look and being some sort of bigoted homophobe aren't joined at the hip.

To all the people that don't understand how something can "look gay": if something is done predominantly by a certain kind of person, it becomes associated with them. This look is usually enjoyed by effeminate men, or men who are otherwise preoccupied with their appearance.
I have no moral problem with men being effeminate, even though I don't think it's a good look aesthetically. I think that looking like one is preoccupied with their appearance is usually vain and cheap looking. Obviously, these players did not choose the look, so I'm not judging them. But it still looks bad, and I still associate it with people who are preoccupied with the way they look.

That looks pretty weird :S Clide looks soo different.
|
Really creepy. And what's the point of turning gamers into metrosexuals? Makes no sense whatsoever :/
|
Looks nothing really out of the ordinary, except for maybe the mascara lol. Nothing too surprising tbh.
|
their hair is pretty sweet tho
|
It's times like this that makes me sad that Geoff left SOTG.
|
I think it's kind of dramatic and cool. It's neat that it's different.
