    Queen's University sociologist Mary Louise Adams, whose research focuses on the history of gender stereotyping in figure skating.


    Congratulations, Mary Louise Adams; you are officially the least useful person on the planet.

    Whether figure skating makes you gay or if being gay leads you to figure skating is just like the old "chicken or the egg" dilemma. Except in this instance, the chicken likes to have sex with other males, so there's no egg.

    Skaters have already made appearances at Harley-Davidson motorcycle outlets, but mainly the campaign will center on telling gritty tales.


    I can't even decide what the most hilarious part of that sentence is.
