Is wearing Lycra a bit gay...?

Auberon Waugh, who really was an unpleasant cove but an amusing one, was very insistent that one should not twist the English language and should refer to people who engaged in homosexual practices as homosexualists; homosexual being strictly an adjective and not a noun.

He also believed that women from SE Asia had no pubic hair and that Prince Charles was secretly married to Princess Marie-Astrid of Luxemburg.

When his son Alexander, after splitting up with a girlfriend, annonced that he would never go out with a girl again - fearing that he may become homosexual, Auberon summoned him to his study and told him “My dear boy, the anus was designed for the retention and expulsion of faecal matter, not for the reception of foreign organs, however lovingly they may be placed there.”
