  1. Gee last year the boys from Duck Dynasty where being reviled for saying something, now the Robertson’s are the latest fashion plate.
    Next thing you know, the next fashionable thing will be manual labour.
    I can see how the left would be worried about that.

  2. I am pretty sure this poor confused dude is wearing a Spiderman suit in that selfie he has provided in his article. We are starting to see more of these urban lumberjacks in Calgary, I wonder how they would do in a bar fight against the real ones in Prince George or Grande Prairie?
    ; )

  3. Heh, that’s our X-ers and millennials fer ya, always pretending to be something they aren’t – raised in a suburban family room, watching Ren and Stimpy, fed on pop tarts and pizza pockets, with ambiguous sexual identity(thanks to pop culture messaging and the ball-busting feminazi teachers who conditioned them), they have nothing to identify with which defines their sexual identity/rolls so they pull more stoic roll models from history – so lumberjacks , why the Frig not eh – as good as any other self deluding fantasy. Maybe next year it will be welders or trappers. If the genuine articles heard these emasculated dress-up dorks talk, they’d puke laughing.
    Ladies if you want to find out if one of these bearded drama queens is the real thing, flash ’em a picture of a timber stand cleared by axe and saw (2 ft stumps)- tell him this is the family timber op and he is welcome to come out for a week of clearing and boom riding – and if they don’t go into a dead faint, you may have something there.

  4. Hydrogen Sulfide keeps all the the lumbersexuals out of the patch. Thank you sour gas, thank you very much.

  5. Real men don’t try to look like ‘real men’. We smell like 2-cycle exhaust, have scars on our hands, faces, arms, etc., have grease and dirt under our broken and dirty fingernails, have slivers of metal or wood worked into our calluses that we can’t get out, sawdust in our hair and socks, and are sore from working at something. The nail through the foot from a framing nail gun is optional.
    Put that in a fashion picture.

  6. Lots of gay males like bearded, hairy men as partners; preferably wearing heavy workboots. Check out Tom of Finland cartoons (and note how much Eric Holder looks like a Tom of Finland character).

  7. grok; . . . . . . . . you just described my late mother-in-law after preparing a Thanksgiving dinner.

  8. I got so po’d reading that article I crushed my beer can. Now I’ll have to go out and change the oil in my car until I calm down.

  9. One thing about the language of “progressives” is that it is largely impenetrable, larded with particular coded terminology that is essentially indecipherable to normal human beings who rarely have the time to waste adjusting their vocabulary to accommodate such drivel.
    They inevitably end up in an echo chamber of their own making.

  10. I’ve never read the word “pansexual” before today, now I’ve discovered I can’t read it without the full Sylvester (suffering succotash) The Cat lisp.

  11. Me thinks that fool would just die if’n he met me. I never got mistaken for a weekend worrior when riding my “bike”, nor mistaken for a male cow ready to calf:-)))
    Poor confused boy needs some one to help him put his plaid skirt on

  12. And the one guy had a TOY chainsaw.I never carried one with a bar under 26 inches,smaller than that is a non-industrial saw.
    As a former logger,faller and buckerman, I deeply resent city metrosexual a**holes trying to look like us!
    Most of us can be found in the bush wearing dark grey longjohn tops, because the wool checkered shirt is too hot to work in unless it’s really cold.
    I started out wearing wool stagged pants but gave them up for the denim or nylon types as the wool was just too damned hot.
    Now I know how the real cowboys must have felt back in the 80’s.

  13. “Now I know how the real cowboys must have felt back in the 80’s.”
    Yep, that’s why my associates would not be found dead dressed in cammies….
    Back in the day, when the “tigersuits” first appeared, we never saw those….except on rear eschalon staff and supply weinies….
    John Kerry probably had several sets…..

    That’s because there were a limited number of tiger suits and the REMFs stole what they could get. The people who wore them in the field were elite forces like SF Green Berets and LRRPs.

    And as to the cowboy thing, real cowboys of the 19th century and 1st quarter of the 20th century didn’t look anything like the ’80s cowboys whose fasion comes straight out of Hollywood.
    For example the hat that ‘Won the West’ worn by cowboys, city, and towns folk alike wasn’t the Stetson or the ‘Ten Gallon’ hat, it was the bowler hat.
