i recently read in ms. or bitch magazine, one or the other, i forget. about how coffee has been portrayed as a very gendered thing. tough guys in movies are always drinking coffee black. the blonde ditz is always ordering a skim sugar-free vanilla latte. frou-frou drinks are, according to the author of this article that i dont remember where i read, considered very feminine. stupid people order them in movies.
i'm not exactly sure whether i agree though. i love drinking coffee black. well, i love drinking ethiopian coffee and costa ricas black. i never order drinks that have to be made up more than a drag queen on halloween, but am i not feminine?
the tough guys that come in to the shop and order mochas with extra whip cream. or a soy caramel latte. they exist. are they not masculine?
i'm just saying......
