Hey Dickhead video guys, maybe they're not hipsters - maybe they are lesbians

Writer Petit Four in East London lesbian site The Most Cake takes issue with the Dickhead video
“A little voice in my head says hey we’re gay, this is our culture. For next few decades at least, the average gay is just not going to have a straightforward semi-detached 2.4 children lifestyle. There’s a reason why so many of us are in London, not in small rural villages tilling the soil and wearing fleeces or whatever it is we’re supposed to be doing, and there’s a reason why lots of us hang out in the areas in London where it’s alright to kiss your girfriend and wear gay clothes. And if you can also get a macchiato and wifi access, well all the frigging better. There’s a reason counter-culture and the gay scene are often closely associated. And it’s not just because we’re all twats.”
