Who the hell came up with the idea of putting that pic of Hitler (found in Wiki) in some metrosexual article and accuse him of being one of those?

hmm lets review the facts. He spent alot of time on his personal appearance (hair and rather gayly trimmed moustache). He always wore clean and stylish uniforms. He was i touch with his feminie side.

he looks pretty metro to me.

There's no evidence that he even had a feminine side. Men in those days may have dressed in a more formal fashion than they do now, but that's in no way homosexual or metrosexual.



As the supreme commander and leader of the party, it's hardly surprising that he would appear out off a uniform. Many dictators presented themselves as fearsome men in uniform and they're certainly not gay. If you refer to Hitler as homo/metro than that's clearly quoting out off context.

Dictators must worry about their appearance all the time, simple because of the political "holyness" that they emit, as their images must command fear and respect amongst their subjects. Stalin was more obsessed with his image than Hitler, does that make him a bigger metro?

Hitler adopted (he did not invent) the toothbrush moustache because he needed to look distinctive and odd as recognizable politicians are easily remembered.

lets get one thing staright. Metro is NOT gay, its whole aim is to score pussy. secondly maybe you have discovered a positive correlation between dictators and metrosexuality.

I'm not sure the whole aim of metro is to score girls. I think some guys just like looking pretty.

LOL all those pictures look pretty metro to me.

I was wondering how long it would take you to see that article Chiang :hilarious:

Mao scored a lot of pussy during his time in office, but I'm not sure about other dictators. Hitler was likely to be either impotent or asexual a lot of the times and was rumored to have practiced sado-masochism and even coprophilia or urophilia. Hitler never dressed in any way feminine and he disliked weak effeminate men (he suspected that they could be homosexual), so it's only by your interpretation that he's a metro.

Senor, did you write that article?

I saw the article on Monday, but I only thought about raising the issue t'night. I think I deserve some credit for posting that picture, should the author be from this forum.

I didn't mean pretty as in feminine. Well maybe I kinda did but :P. By that definition I reckon he's a metro.

Any dictator can score girls no matter what they look like. It's a case of "guards, fetch her!"

That's what the NKVD's Beria and his deputy, Abakumov indulged in.

Hitler thought of himself as powerful and mysterious, but never as pretty. He never cared much about women since his greatest lust lies in power and domination. You've just jumped on the bandwagon because of the sensationalism achieved by claiming Hitler is a metro. A similar thing happened a year of two ago when some gay historian quoted out off context in his book claiming that Hitler was as queer as the gays he sent to be gassed. Pure horse shit!

Of the two million plus images taken of Hitler, none of them suggested that he was metro.

nope i didnt write it. i have an unfair bias because i wear nice clothing and footwear, and cut my hair a certain way, and enjoy my girls.

I'm sure you'll have to be more than that to be considered a real metro. According to sources, metros use skincare products compulsively, talk of womanly topics, believe that they have a "feminine side" to be explored and touching the boundaries of being a transvestite. Basically, you act like a fag to attract girls (or guys, if you're bisexual).

It's a load of horsefuck that some people claim that men have a "feminine side". They should class that a personality disorder or worse! This whole metro fad is an example of Western society's standards crumbling. There's no better time to stand up for decency. Hail!

*ahem* DEFENSIVE! *ahem*

I'm not defending Hitler, I'm simply defending historical facts. Hitler was neither a homo nor a metro. If he was not afraid of the showing of an alleged "feminine side", wouldn't the July Plot to have him killed happened a lot earlier, resulted in his death and likely to have involved the SS and Gestapo as well?

The picture was clearly thrown in as a joke. Noone on earth would take it as a serious claim. Can you try and develop a sense of humour about these things? Or are you truly, genuinely offended when someone slags off Adolf Hitler?

I'm never offended when someone slags off Hitler, I just thought it was odd that one of the most anti-homosexual men would be classed as a metro in our crazy, modern world.

The whole thing about claiming him as a metro seems like the sort of batshit Ahmed would say.

Sometimes when men "slag off" homosexuality, it is merely a device in order to cover or prevent them from admitting to their own sexuality and feelings. They literally hide it. Hence the saying "coming out". And we all know Hitler was all about hiding things. Like how he had Jewish lineage. And like how he killed 6 million people...You can't keep secrets forever, though, can you. Sooner or later, the shit hits the fan.

Look at his poofy pants.

He definitely was a metro.

I bet his first choice of colours for the uniforms was pink, not khaki...

Actually the color was earth brown to signify the German soil. The only time they used rose-pink was in the pipings of Panzer elite.



Those are not poofy pants, they're called breeches (suitable for jackboots) and were originally cavalry.



Coming out? I loathe gays, lesbians, trans and other sexual deviants and I'm sure as hell ain't in league with them.

Um. Adolf. Did you even read this?

Gratuitous picture of Hitler with small boys:

Yeah man, you are way too fucking defensive of Hitler. Too fucking obsessed with Hitler. Too fucking in line with Hitler. Too fucking Fucked!

Get off the hate train and get on the luuuuuuurrrrrve wagon
Drink beer
Loosen your collar
untuck your shirt
Enjoy people
Enjoy LIFE

The more I see this the funnier it gets.

Look at the chancellor one first, he could be walking down a catwalk :)

The the supreme commander one, what a gay little wave :D

Finally, party leader. What a poser! :hilarious:

Then put that all to the music of "I'm too sexy (for this shirt)".

Replace the label "Supreme Commander" with "Jethus Christht"

A greeeaaat adventure is waiting just ahead, hurry onwards lemmiwinks of you shall soon be dead...the journey before you may be long and filled with woe, but you must escape the gay man's ass so your tail can be told...

Sorry. PS: Hitler was clearly gay.

Weren't many influential members of the Nazi party homosexual, particularly before the purge on the night of the long knives? Hitler didn't have a problem with them until he needed to consolidate power.

Hitler might possibly have been way in the closet. His marriages were apparently entirely devoid of sex. Who knows whether he was or not? He was a nutter for all sorts of reasons. The only sane thing he did was snuff himself.

The 'metrosexual' as an idea is less than a decade old - it even says so in the article. This is why it was only a joke. Did you read the article properly, Adolf? Or did you just home in on a picture of Hitler with caption and think "Oh Noes They Are Calling Him a H0m0" - case closed?

im more inclined to believe the latter...

You don't need to be a master of observance to find out if the author is a member of this forum. All you need to do is take note of the pseudonym signed at the end of the article and check that against the member list of this forum. "sdr" =

<--- "sdr"

“It's a clear match, Captain!”

Now that we've got that settled, let's say I did find the picture that you posted and sent that in to the Editors to publish with my work. So what, why should you be given credit for it? Would you want a little note underneath the caption stating 'Picture sourced by Adolf Chiang'? If you deserve credit, did you even offer credit to the website you sourced the picture from when you posted it here? I can't actually be bothered finding that particular post, but I'm willing to bet you didn't.

Incidentally I did not submit those pictures with my article, nor did I come up with the captions. I do however completely support the picture being there as a part of my article, as I LOLed when I saw it.

Now, if you want my opinion as to whether or not Hitler is a metrosexual, my answer is no. The one consistent part of anyone’s definition of a metro is that it is a strait male. Hitler obviously smoked cock and is thus by extension a homosexual.

Btw, what did you peeps think of my article overall? I'd be keen to know what you guys thought (except hitler/ac).

i thought it was good. you should have talked to a metro tho and asked what he thort it was about :)

Basically I did. The point wasn't to define metrosexuality or discuss its nuances, that would be folly seeing everyone has their own view on what precisely denotes a man as a metro. It's like trying to define 'art'. The point was more to have a bit of a laugh and perhaps create a bit of discourse about masculine identity.

Or cause the entire fucking engineering faculty to cave in on itself under the weight of a sexual identity crises.

somoene please photoshop the middle picture of hitler onto the winston peters gayontheforeshore election billboard :)

When I come back, I'll come back fighting. I've got a project to do now, but this discussion is heating up faster than the Cold War.

Ironic that, because like the cold war, its totally pointless.

It's not about being gay, it's about knowing what looks good and spending a lot of time and money on appearance and lifestyle. Compare with Chiang's arguments:

:hmm:

Also

Sources eh? Conservatives such as yourself who have infiltrated the camp of the enemy in order to observe and gather intelligence?

hehe I said camp

Fuck wikipedia, its not an authority because anyone can write a wiki. I use the Urban Dictionary's definitions because they offer diversity and give many peoples opinion. To be a bit more clear on my definition:

A guy with "metro looks" can be of any sexual orientation.

A "metrosexual" is a strait man with a heck of a fashion sense. That's the definition given by Mark Simpson, a writer who usually focused on gay issues. Because the original definition coined by the author of the word used it to refer to a strait male, I will stick by that and so do many people. Once again without the "sexual" you have simply "metro" which specifically signifies the look in and of itself, rather than the individual bearing that look.

The fact that this is being debated is enough reason to have the word "metrosexual" purged from the English language, it's just way too problematic.

The cold war is over, just like your debate..

*Reads all the posts with the thousand yard stare, before proceeding ahead.*

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thousand_Yard_Stare

Yes, I finally realized that it was a joke of calling Hitler the original metro, just like the 16th Century Digggers and Levellers were the original communists in the modern sense.

WTF? I told you fols before many times, I don't support Nazism or anti-Semitism in any way. And I wasn't defenseive of Hitler, I was simply pointing our the errors of historical interpretation, just like my corrections to those who are ignorant of China and think that there's a secret police operating like the ones in the former Eastern Bloc.

Lurve wagon? You mean the Kombi van where hippies go to make babies for abortion?

Beer tastes bad and it's unlikely I'll ever drink the stuff again.

I only tuck in my shirt if its a business shirt.

I try to get a long with people but different people have different reasons to loathe certain parties. It's a matter of personal choice. I'm pretty sure Mr. von Cock hates a certain groups.

Life is an endless struggle for knowledge, wealth, power and wellbeing. Like it or lump it (commit suicide then it's game over).

Now that's fuckin' disturbing!

Not likely that 'many' were actually gay. Hitler needed excuses to destroy his opponents, since the Party had no Jews (or at least known ones), he needed other excuses. No better excuse can be found in a crusade against sexual deviants (Hitler's speeches against the Jews contained many words related to sexual indecency). The greater concern Hitler had for the SA's principle homo (Ernst Roehm) was ideological rather than personal, since Roehm's economic and political beliefs resembles more socialism ('Stalinism') than fascism.

I did read the article properly, it simply re-affirmed my beliefs that metrosexuals are planning to take over society with their new form of perversion (I didn't get the idea from watching 'South Park'), I just thought the whole idea of including Hitler's pic as a little strange. I also needed some credit for finding that pic.

If it's for the purpose of an article like this, I should have posted that alleged pic of Hitler scratching his nuts sooner.

Of all the time spent in the faculty, I am doubtful to have see one effiminate man over there. I'm convinced that there are more toggafs doing arts. The whole Craccum smear campaign of the university's leading faculty is FUBAR. With all these claims that the engineers are queer, perhaps they are the ones being attacked by a sexual identity crisis.

I get your mental picture, Doc. It won't have a similar effect as Peters doesn't wear uniforms.

You should be thankful that didn't have to write that sentence in Russian!

By sources, I've referred to the Wiki article and the Article by Mr. SDR. That's more than one source, so it constitutes as a multiple.

They're both the fuckin' same. You write whatever the fuck you like, it's just that UD allows judgement with thumbs to demonstrate public agreement or vice versa, where as Wiki drones on into endless debate and bitching when certain 'experts' have their disagreements about one article.

No, no you don't. You didn't credit it when you found it, so why should they? welcome to the concept of the public domain.

Then the credit goes to Wikipedia.

You know, I really think you have a point there, and I'm speaking as an Arts student who's comfortable with being heterosexual. I suspect, however, that we simply poke fun at "gay Engineers" not because we think they're gay, but because some of them invariably respond angrily, in a very entertaining fashion. *points at noone in particular*

Maybe all us Arts students are secretly gay. Lucky that there's nothing wrong with being gay, so we don't have to be insulted. We can just keep on taking the mickey out of people who think there is something wrong with it... :P

Most engineers, I suspect, recognise that it's just interdepartmental slagging and live with it. Alec and Stian say they've tried to publish similar jokes at the expense of Arts students, but they seem to go under the radar. Probably because we're all too busy being tolerant/saving the world/getting high...

Back to metrosexuals. I think this current fad is really just the same as what happened in European cities in the 19th century, when people worried about 'dandies' with makeup and long hair and nice clothes - people who drank coffee in cafes, lived in hotels etc. The idea of men becoming fashionable - and thus not really being men - is a cultural thing that comes and goes.

Who remembers "Just Gay Enough" from the mid-90s? :D

Interestingly enough, after Hitler ended his education and before moving to Vienna, he dressed in a fine suit (with coat tails), wore a tophat and carried a stick, visited the theatre often and had good manners in public. His aims were attempting to pretend that he's a rich man (an not some penniless loser from a dysfunctional, incestuous family). His peers were worried that he might be a dandy. Growing out off that phase was a real learning curve for that bastard.

I suppose I should congratulate you for bringing us back on topic. *sigh* If only every other thread on here wasn't also about Hitler...

Did you read the rest of my brilliant and insightful post?
