Definitely, and also to a sort of decillectivization of myth where you just live out archetypes in the course of your individual late capitalist existence (and redeem it by realizing this)

It's originally a Charles Atlas advertising line (Flex is a stylized take on Atlas): gamble a stamp and I'll make you a real man!https://www.theparisreview.org/blog/2017/03/20/muscle-smoke-mirrors/ …

This looks like Tom of Finland for straight people and I fucking love it.

Tom of Finland is a bitter fruit of that physique photography and physical culture tree. Back when I was a history prof, I'd do a lecture entirely of 20s/30s erotic physique pics, then Tom of Finland, then just actual (male only) erotic cinema. Students thought I was far right!

I think I'm the only professor who gave such lectures over and over and not only didn't end up on one of those "professor watch lists" but in fact found myself considered among the most conservative profs at the university, somehow

Damn. That's insane. I went to the University of West Florida and most of my professors were actual registered Republicans and right-wingers so that misperception probably would have gotten you tenure down here. Lol

Yeah, I would show full frontal and get "great to see conservative viewpoints represented here at UTA" on the reviews. I guess you could say anything and be considered right wing if your self presentation was like mine

Yeah here the student reviews would have been more along the lines of "As president of the Baptist Students Association I ask that you fire this godless communist pervert." Lol

I thought that's what I'd get in Texas, but I was surprised!

Lol you weren't in Texas baby you were in the People's Republic of Austin. That's a whole different story. Grew up in rural east texas, my mom once took a 45 minute detour on the way to San Antonio to avoid this "sin city," as she insists on calling it.
