Are teslas gay
Kav, call sign “Havok,” rides a Harley-Davidson. His wife drives a Tesla Model 3 LR. She also rides a Kawasaki Vulcan 650. When he told his biker mates that she was getting an electric vehicle, they said: “Electric vehicles are lgbtq+, mate!”
We met for coffee this morning in the Brisbane CBD so that Kav and his wife Marzi could tell me their intriguing story. We parked at King George Square car park, where there are 8 destination chargers where you can charge for free. How good is that! While we sat for coffee, Kav faced one way and counted 15 Teslas driving past, Majella faced the other way and saw 15 more, two Polestars, and a couple of BYDs. Electric cars are certainly making their presence felt in the city!
Marzi and Kav arrived in Australia from Iran 8 years ago. Kav works as an engineer on oil rigs and Marzi is an administration officer with Queensland Health. Unfortunately, she was unable to continue her career in IT when she arrived in Australia, as her English wasn’t excellent enough. It is ideal now. In Iran, Kav used to race cars when he wasn’t operational the rigs. Marzi was an IT engineer designing interconnecting hardware.

In addition to his close friendship with Robert Underwood Johnson, Tesla also had a strong emotional attachment to his friend George Sylvester Viereck, a poet and writer.

Tesla Is #1 Identity By LGBT Consumers
This year, Tesla took the number one spot on YouGov's Best Brand 2015 for lesbian, same-sex attracted, bi-sexual, and gender diverse consumers (LGBT). The company won by a long shot and knocked Amazon out of first place. Tesla was not on the top ten list last year.
An review of LGBT workplace policies by the Human Rights Campaign ranked Tesla with the maximum 100 points on the Corporate Equality Index Rating Score.
New additions joining Tesla on the 2015 uppermost ten list were Trader Joe's and YouTube. Amazon, Netflix, PBS, Samsung, Google, and HBO all returned to the top ten for at least the second consecutive year. Costco returned to the list this year after existence the winner two years back. Apple, iPhone, Subway, and Panera all missed the top ten this year after having been on it last year.
The YouGovBrandIndex uses a Buzz score obtained from over 1,400 companies to decide results. All consumers polled are simply asked:
“If you've heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth, was it positive or negative?”
Then results are filtered to only add responses from the LGBT community.

Curiouser and Curiouser: Tesla's 'Gay' Electric Car Connection
Oh, what a tangled web we weave in the insular little world of electric car advocates.
Take the news earlier today that Universal Pictures has agreed to a request from the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation that it pull a trailer for a new Vince Vaughan movie in which the B-list star says, "Frankly, gentlemen, electric cars are gay."
Now it turns out that there's a Tesla connection to the film.
(We presume that Tesla Motors doesn't particularly think that electric cars are homosexual, at least in the silly, dismissive use of the word that GLAAD so objects to.)

Stumped?
Well, Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently divorced his wife--his divorce became an issue in Tesla's recent Initial Public Offering--and married a young actress, Tallulah Riley.
Ms. Riley, as it happens, has a cameo in The Dilemma, the Vaughan movie with the offending line.
But it's the character of that role that makes everything so circular.
Tesla's CEO's new wife's role is as a "concept car spokesmodel," in the words of no less an authority than IMDB.com.
As we've said before, all roads eventually seem to lead bac
