I love Mississippi. A place with few out gay men or teens, yet many women who are making “is my husband gay” the #1 Google auto-filled search for the partial phrase “is my husband.” Great story and quant narrative at NY Times, via JoeMyGod.
It’s remarkable how a Google image search for “anthony weiner twitter” produces such a rich set of visuals that tells more than enough: vanity, tears, arrogance, underpants, wife, user-generated content, hairless muscular chest, high school photo, the american flag.
