The FBI stuck the thief with the title in reference to the 2005 film Brokeback Mountain, which starred the late Heath Ledger as a gay cowboy. The FBI says label has nothing to do with the bank robber’s sexual orientation; apparently it is all about the man’s styling cowboy hat.

LezTalk: Gay Fatigue
I have named the malaise from which I suffered ‘gay fatigue.’ No, it’s not an allusion to the camouflage pants that shirtless gay men donned with combat boots in the discos of the 80s to look macho; it’s a thoroughly modern feeling of being tired of the whole gay thing.
