okay, what you did here was, you forgot that those copy writers have the ability to control what their words mean! If they're using fruity in a non-gay way, then it's not insulting and doesn't encourage the masculine-vs-homosexual false dichotomy. It's not gay in this reference, Trin!
It's like when my friends do something lame and I tell them they're acting SO GAY. I don't mean it to mean homosexual, I just mean that they suck! I mean . . . that they blow! I mean . . . that they're lame. So it's not homophobic or heterosexist then.
