Project Runway FAIL

Project runway can be fun to watch, just for the colors and fabric and 1337 sewing skillz , but for a show full of self-professed gay guys it's so normative it's full of fail.
There are only two options, or roles to design for - Manly Men and Womanly Women.
And their idea of manly and womanly is so narrow it's like walking on a razor. :(
A dress that no one could walk in won over a elegant origami looking one because it didn't make the model look like she had a narrow waist and Huge BOOBZ.
I knew a femmey guy who wore a lot of skirts and came in one day with a black jean skit and caution tape for a tie.
He's worth more than all the judges put together >: (
