Ok lets face it male figure skaters are not the most masculine then along comes skaters like Johnny Weir and well you get this

So out come the gay jokes. What is that saying if it skates walks like a duck, talks like a duck then its a duck. As you can imagine it was open season on Weir jokes. Well the Canadian press had a field day with it and it cost a few of them their jobs. Yahoo did a story on it and well I have to admit it did make for a funny read.

Weir "a bad example" and suggested he go through gender testing, like the runner Caster Semenya. After all, in no way is the latter a touchy subject.

When they were asked to apologize the only thing they apologized for was his bad outfits. They still continued to laugh about his masculinity and that he should have competed in women's figure skating.

So do you think they went to far or did his flamboyant almost ask if not beg to be talked about?
