MICHAEL GREENSPAN on bow-ties and hypermasculinity.

Plus, the downside of hypo-masculinity:

One occupational hazard, she says, is cheap men — guys who want to haggle over the “donation” all night. One particularly odd phenomenon she’s noticed: The men who ask her to use a strap-on on them — guys who want to be pegged — are the cheapest clients. “They always want to negotiate the price or tell me they only have so much,” she says. She shrugs and shakes her head. “I don’t know what it is, but it’s like every time.”

Bummer.
