No, that isn't the reason at all. The reason is that those pictures would be INSTANTLY put into perspective, in the REAL WORLD and because more people, in the REAL WORLD know that such charity shows have been going on for a VERY long time!

I have calmly explained where those pictures are from, here on FR and the history of American "HAIRY LEG SHOWS", multiple times, but the people who keep posting them ignore those posts. The FACTS don't matter at all to them.

But once again, for the benefit of those here, who might be interested, here it is again...................

The history of "HAIRY LEG SHOWS", in America, goes back to colonial times. They are a standby in all of the elite boarding schools and colleges and even in not very elite schools and colleges as well.

Unlike boys who take the female parts in all boys schools' plays, or even farther back to Shakespearean times, "HAIRY LEG SHOWS" are a burlesque ( not as in a strip show, please look up the meaning of that word, I've too much else to write to give yet another definition ! ), where the male in female attire and makeup is made to look OUTLANDISHLY female, not realistically "female".

It is pathetic and juvenile to use those pictures to attempt to smear Rudy and yes, I would say the same thing about anyone; it isn't because it's Rudy.

Chicago and other cities have the same kind of yearly charity show. Until quite recently, these shows were known about ONLY by those in or attending them and the general, public, to this day, do NOT attend them. Recently they have become public knowledge and some pictures of Rudy have been published. You people NEVER post the ones of him where he rode onto the stage on a HARLEY, though. Why is that? Is it because you can't imply or actually say that he is a cross dresser or a queer, if you posted them?

So what? I said they would be used like Dukakis' helmet shot. Did the picture of Dukakis prove that he was evil or immoral or something? Of course not. It just made him look silly. Are you going to post a lengthy discussion of tank manufacturing in order to somehow prove that Dukakis did *not* look silly?
