If 2014 was the year of the booty, then 2015 seems to be the year of the penis. Now wait, before you roll your eyes and scream "PAUSE" at your computer screen, hear us out. Now more than ever, it seems like (intentionally and accidentally) guys are letting their flags fly at full mast.
From pointed tweets to full-frontal at Paris Fashion Week, there's a recent swell of dick pic drops, "swollen" selfies, and even a few bulge-centric controversies (cough...Calvin Klein...cough). All respect to #FreeTheNipple, but at this rate, we might be seeing something centered more towards the male member.
As we take in (pun not intended) Lenny Kravitz's recent "penisgate", we take a look back. This is A Recent History of Total Dick Moves in Fashion.
Idris Elba's Bowtie Boners
When: January 2014
Lots of things cause boners. A beautiful human, a kind gesture, maybe even a great meal. But bowties? Yeah, maybe Idris Elba is on his own with that one. En route to the 25th annual Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards Gala, Elba tweeted out saying “My Bow makes my dick hard every time I smile…is that normal?".
Naturally, when the thirsty responses wrapped up and the dust settled, Idris took the whole thing in stride noting that he should start his own bowtie company—“Dickie Bows by Driis.” If the response on Twitter is any indication, it'd be a surefire success…though probably not in the way he's thinking.
Wowsers! Crazy how many new followers you get when you mention the D*** If I owned a Bow tie company I'd be laughing. Dickie Bows by Driis
