Thank God for Showtime!
Jun. 4th, 2014 01:31 pmOn Penny Dreadful, rugged hero Ethan Chandler (aka The Wolf-Man ) and hedonist Dorian Gray (aka Broadway's Spider-Man) hooked up last episode for some sexy absinthe-fueled man-on-man action.
It's been SO AMUSING watching the show's dudebro fans melting down on IMdB over this. The denial is great. Watch the clip, it's not like "Oops, I slipped and my dick went in ya!" But really, it seems to me that the denial over Dorian/Ethan becoming canon is mostly because Ethan is the traditionally masculine hero type and the audience surrogate into the world of the show -- if he's bi, then by extension the male audience members who over-identify with him feel a little bi, too.
In other news,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
theladyscribe and I went to ninja class last night, then had a serious discussion about the MCU and Chris Evans' dick. We also visited one of the last ol skool anarchist squats in the Lower East Side! It was sweet.
