Gay and Bear-ish Christmas Ornaments: Would You Purchase?

How about a lumber jack in his button down jeans?

Or maybe you'd like one for display during the High Holidays? Oy gevalt!

Okay, one more idea for the Eldergays, Father Pride!

Work site near me NEVER look like this...

Cute!

A homosexual Jewish mermaid! Well I Never!!

I've given one of the mermen ornaments to a friend before, a few years back. Not any of these but.....whatever one was coming out that year.

He collects them, so it was actually an easy gift choice.

I would, but $5.49 for shipping? Scandalous!!

Is this the Tacky-Gay equivalent of those 90s ceramic harlequin masks?

"Father Pride" was clearly modeled on the Eldergay residents of Wilton Manors and Palm Springs.

I have been gifted two Mermen. They have a special place in the back of the tree for when the grandparents visit.

Tacky as fuck.

Nothing says "Let's celebrate the birth of Jesus" quite like an ornament of a hairy shirtless lumberjack with a large package!

Tacky, but, fun.

Let's face it, Christmas is mostly a kitsch fest.

Button front jeans!

40 bucks. No. people clearly have too much money.

A merman, in a Santa Claus outfit, with a teddy bear? There is WAY too much going on there…..

I have this...

Good gift if you’re going to a gay white elephant gift exchange party.

r9 ugh, those masks were so tacky even then.

I hate to admit it but I like them. I am confused on why a merperson needs clothes when they swim underwater even at Xmas.

"merperson"? WTH is that? They are MER-MEN (not the B'way legend) but MALE versions of mermaids.

merperson. Jesus Christ... you're a graduate of what, Smith? Wellesley?

Grow. A. Pair. Please.

Merthey!

For your "great outdoors" buddy. Take a hike!

Definitely my kind of bear at the beach! Nipple ring bonus...

Tacky as absolute fuck. World Market has better ornaments for roughly $10 each.

I remember seeing these at the Rainbows & Triangles store on 8th Avenue around 20 years ago.

R26, what's the difference between tacky and kitschy? I think the bear ornaments are/can be kitschy, not tacky.

I wouldn't buy one of the mermen or bear ornaments for all of my gay friends, but I do know a few who would get the joke.

A bear ornament that's on display a couple of weeks a year in late December? kitschy.

But if this fairy was hanging in a friend's place? I'd say tacky. Does anyone really have a fairy-man ornament??

Aye, our Scotsman's a hairy beast...

This Santa's got a package just for you (and it ain't slung over his shoulder)!

Does World Market have Jewish daddy mermen, though?

Does everything have to be about sex with you homosexuals?

R11 Given, not gifted. Just a warning, you will get endless shit around here unless you take note. I learned the hard way.

R32, are you Kim Davis? A whore of biblical proportions?

Is that merman Jesus, r18?

I am certainly that, R34, but I'm not that whore.

Thicker in the middle by half and still indulging in sweets, perhaps this merman is more representative of DataLounge?

Your ho-ho-holiday bear, all jingly-jangly...

I dig how the designer/creator of this little bear made sure the cock sits to the left...

R32 wipes back to front.

Listed as "Executive Bear"... um where? Maybe at a Palm Springs Chamber of Commerce meeting? A Steamworks Baths corporate retreat?

Still, the glasses, watch and tat are nice touches!

'Tis the season... perhaps he's your pumpkin-spiced bear?

For your besties who have retired to Flori-duh... your men of Wilton Manors.

And if you want to contribute your favorites or "most-tacky" or just plain amusing, here's a link...

OK, this one is cute.

R9 Ooof those things were fucking HIDEOUS! I loathed them then, and wouldnt have one in my house today either

[quote]Does everything have to be about sex with you homosexuals?

R32 Yes. Yes, it does

R32 - yes.

I don't think ornaments, which get hauled out once a year for a couple of weeks in December are the same as "those 90s ceramic harlequin masks." Those masks were used as year-round "decoration." Christ those are/were awful.

R45, I'm with you - that's cute. Nothing I'd want, but cute.
