But would you still have your appetite sitting across from a grown man wearing a coconut bra over his hairy chest?

Well, if you must ruin perfectly good fried oysters by combining them with poached eggs and hollandaise….

The coconut bra looks good on you, Rod.

It depends on how dysfunctional you are in regard to sex and sexuality. As you know, American society today is about proclaiming it is always normal and it doesn’t have a mountain of problems regarding sexuality (especially in anything related to homosexuality and cross/trans-gender). Clearly the man who took the photo wanted to send a picture of himself and not the dish.

I’m glad. Because if a person wanted a picture of the dish and what’s in it, that’s not how they’d position the camera. The camera is certainly not at an adult eye-level.
In any case, whether it’s Mardi Gras or not doesn’t matter in the least anymore. Nowadays, if something has something to do with homosexuality, cross-dressing, or transgender, it must be right. There is no difference between Mardi Gras and non-Mardi Gras.
I just have to ask, is that you behind the bennies?
On second thought, I may not want to know…
