I don't really think Ralph Gibson ...Dear Anon:<br /><br />I don't really think Ralph Gibson has anything at all to do with porn. And Nabokov is spelled with two o's, by the way.<br /><br />"Fagville" -- golly, do I come off as "fag"-y? Not what I would have thought. <br /><br />I think your view of subject-matter is skewed. Gibson's a pretty mainline straight photographer. <br /><br />Anon, you live in a strange world of your own.Curtis Favillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06213075853354387634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660090614793277371.post-42406732961331153012011-10-07T10:35:08.762-07:002011-10-07T10:35:08.762-07:00fagville's usual soft porn-quasi nabakovian qu...fagville's usual soft porn-quasi nabakovian quatschAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
