When we talk about Lambert

People, I respect all your opinions, and even ones that I don’t agree with are often founded on good logic, at least. However, I’m a little upset with one repetitive admonishment that I keep reading (seems to come from the “We’re upset with you because your performance tarnished the ‘gay reputation’ camp”), that is, that “Not all gay people wear eyeliner and leather! That’s not all our community does! I don’t wear sparkles and eyeliner and prance around.”

You know what? Good for you. You know what though, some people do. The gay community is as diverse a spectrum as any other - our diversity should be our strength. Much of the history of our struggle is, in fact, predicated not only the efforts of “mainstreamed” gays and groups like the HRC, but radical communities, allies, and what some would label freaks. What’s implicit in the critique that “not all of us are freaks” is that you hold your way of being gay as superior to mine or Lamberts, or my transgendered friend’s. This is just as bigoted and myopic as a hard-line right-wing conservative who thinks all gays are freaks - the only difference is that their scope of hatred is larger, and you’re just holding us all back with this in-fighting.

Sometimes a performance is just a performance. And while we should be moving the cause of LGBTQ forward, we should not always have to look over our shoulders wondering if we’re gay “the right way.” We all are, because it’s our own way.

Done.

Done and done.

Even though we aren’t into December yet, I’ve looked at the music release schedule for the rest of 2009, and nothing else is coming out that I am remotely interested in (sorry, Alicia Keys). I think I have cemented my end-of-year favorites list, but it’s too early to post it. That said, I made a grid-like picture with all the top contenders anyway. I will think about posting it this week.

Suffering through an hour of Jay Leno...

just to get to GaGa’s performance.

Formspring to pass the time?

I hate crotch buttons on jeans.

1. They’re the gay equivalent of taking off a girl’s bra - “Here why don’t I just do it”
2. They’re impossible to button up in front of a urinal, so I feel like everyone just thinks I’m playing with myself.
3. Sometimes they create fake boners.
4. Isn’t that why they invented the zipper??

Amen.

Ugh. I know.
