Default Fingerless gloves "gay"? What started this?

Anyone know where/how this started? Ihave read and heard that fingerless gloves are considered "gay" now. I guess that makes me gay during the summer. Where did this crap start?

I would like to know the same thing. My wife bought me a very nice pair for Christmas. They are nice and padded, but cool in the summer heat. Please, will someone answer this?
