no thanks, @manteas, the men in my life take sugar and sometimes milk, but not homophobic marketing. #nicetrybutno

For the record, I personally think gay dudes are great. They leave more chicks for the rest of us. And I’ve already said my peace about lesbians elsewhere. Though I would never encourage guys “to treat lesbians they encounter as a wandering peep show,” it’s still hot to think about two chicks together.


So, in summary, Man Teas (and the Tea Man) are not homophobic. Misogynistic, sexist, chauvinist pig? Maybe. But not homophobic.

Is it okay that I think @manteas is so cool, even though I am not a man? Some clubs you just can’t get in.

Dear “PaintedLeaves”,

Even though you are clearly a chick (no self-respecting man would give himself such a pansy Twitter moniker), I completely understand your attraction to our testosterone-laced teas.

Even though our teas were not crafted with women in mind, I realize there are some women who will be attracted to them. Some will sneakily purchase our teas for their “husband” or “boyfriend” only to be seen greedily gulping them as they make frequent furtive glances through the window blinds to make sure they aren’t being watched. It’s okay, we understand.

It’s kind of like how some chicks dig other chicks, and most of us guys, even though we know that, technically, lesbians are poaching on our turf, well, we don’t mind it so much, cause it’s kinda hot. We just want to watch. That’s kind of how it is with Manteas. We know that some of you are going to like our teas, and we think you’re kind of hot for that.

At least, that’s how I see it. What do the rest of you guys think? Comments are open.
