Women be like

Dudes got rizz

A man winning woman of the year? Please....

I'm 34. When I was younger, I didn't like disco. This was due to keeping in line with my dad's out-of-touch views. Then I started hearing a few songs I did like and it became a guilty pleasure. By my mid to late 20s I liked it, especially after realizing I was bi, and knowing the LGBTQ roots of the genre.

I think it is like depression with there being no cure for severe depression. These people we are talking about here are likely stuck in gender unease for which they have no cure either. Stuff like going to the clinic is like a quick fix since it does not get rid of the underlying symptoms.

How did he marry a women? Did he have sex change operation back then🤔

Did I just find a really under rated Yotuber? Oh my, how queer!

Racist, homophobic, an xenophobic? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 STFU..

NONE of those records, were part of the origins of Disco. Disco was about the extended, pronounced beat. That "doomp, doomp, doomp, doomp" was what made Disco "Disco".

i wish real lgbt actresses would portray gl characters on tv. it's hard to admire gl actresses who are straight irl. althougb they say they support lgbt people, it's hard to trust coz theyre biased coz they are getting paid for it. its their job

This is amazing.

Disco is the sountrack of my youth. Disco's were the meeting ground where we hung out, danced, drank & socialized to disco tracks played on delicious sound systems meant to entice one to the dancefloor. The overall mood on any given night was sensuous. Men and women dressed in their finest and showed off their best moves. Fun had by all! The disco sucks movement came from those ugly, ill dressed imdi individual's who were enraged and envious of those of us who were hip in our attire, could dance our asses off snd were proud in our demeanor. Sorry ugly rockers were not and still are not welcome to the party. Sorry kids.

What he did was highly classified and not many people knew until recently so they treated him like any other gay man at the time none of the people arresting him would’ve known

Same thing happens in modern day, and people lose their fuckin' minds.

You're wrong about Saturday Night Fever. If ever a film reflected what life was like in New York at the time, that was it. It was brutal, but reality. Why have you got a clear Chip on your Shoulder regarding it ? 😡

Excited!

Hi my last name is Hays and im also gay.

Could indicate trans as well

This was absolutely lovely! Thank you both, I learned so much!

Loved being a guest on your podcast!! It was fantastic!!

The Tomb of the Two Brothers | Ancient LGBTQ+ so, basically, incest?

They did Pharaoh's nails? How much gayer of a job could they have had? (I am a gay)

Stunning simply stunning

I always said that Malificent was based off of classic queer camp icon Norma Desmond played by Gloria Swanson in the film Sunset Boulevard and I will DIE on this hill of thorns/poisonous spindle. 13:30 As well as Steven Universe, there’s also the Cartoon Network children’s show Craig of the Creek which has one of the main kids as a son of two fathers and it’s so lovely and cute

I couldn’t have said it better!!

Ursula is my all time favorite!! However, Disney really does need to do better!!

Such a good ep!

Cool stuff!

Excited for this one!

Not even ONE mention of Larry Levan and The Paradise Garage??? Big failure!!! An iconic and pivotal moment of LGBTQ+ inclusion and history and immediate "descendant" of disco... disappointing!

Why tho like the rainbow was good intill the lbgqt community came and now when you look at the rainbow all you think is gay

I always loved disco and was a little young to go out dancing in the 70s. But I made up for it in the 80s and 90s. I’m glad ppl. that like house music now understand the connection with disco. I’m seeing a big disco come back with the younger generation now and not the commercial disco and more the underground disco.

That voice, though.

Accusing Classic Hollywood - or, more accurately, the moralists who applied pressure to Classic Hollywood - of "queer-coding" seems inconsistent to me. Remember, such people didn't simply want gay and queer people to "know their place"; they wanted gays and queers to never have existed in the first place. How can you possibly expect to deny the existence of queerness when you're constantly insinuating it? You can't simultaneously be homophobic on the one hand and completely ignorant of homosexuality on the other. Arguing that the Wicked Queen from SNOW WHITE is a coded lesbian, for example, is a bit of a stretch. It's far more likely that the character was modeled on Hollywood actresses who just happened to be queer in real life, such as Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich. It was the subtext that colored the portrayal, not the animators' design. And scapegoating Disney diverts attention from the real problem. Of course children are influenced by the entertainment media they consume; that's why they should not be allowed to consume so much of it in the first place! Disney cartoons were never intended as a substitute for real-world parenting, so parents who bring up homophobic children really only have themselves to blame.

Look a the damage tv shows and movies did for blacks and latinos in the 70s and 80s and gangs and criminals. And even the news is bias in how it presents people compared to whites. Whites have an opioid epidemic blacks have a crack epidemic. If a white and black dose a same crime . The black person has a more severe sentence.

Well the opposite end is casual homophobia in movies where is presented as ok. A good example of that is Blacula where his first victims are to gay antique her to find his casket. When the cops discuss it.... they talk as if it’s not much of a loss since it happened to gay guys. The beginning of warlock it’s hard to say whether they’re being homophobic or edgy with his first victim ... again a gay antique collector. Probably fuck collectively as canon fodder among all the other victims

Having Hate and wanting to Destroy a music genre,.....Merica

Never could understand the whole “disco sucks” thing

Some of it was actually good even the haters liked a couple at least😂😂

I vaguely remember this. Long live Disco!
