PHOTOS: Thousands of musclebound men put on skimpy red dresses and ran through New Orleans

It wasn’t just the weather that was steamy last weekend in New Orleans. Thousands of musclebound men and beautiful women–gay, straight, bi, and everything in between–slipped into their slinkiest, sexiest red dresses for the annual Red Dress Run through the French Quarter. The run benefits over 100 local charities and ends with one giant dance party on Bourbon Street.
