Tony and HG, you leave me breathless today. lol "Straight fans", generally speaking, are given 90% acknowledgement in every step taken, no matter where they walk, no matter who they step on and no matter what they step in. ("What's the matter, your shoes on too tight?") For just this moment in time, can we allow the script to be flipped?
As for Gaga, I am hoping that she survives this second effort and can move into some newer work that is actually fresh fresh ya'll. If P were to be judged on Prince and For You in this day and age he wouldn't fill up a bargain bin with another record, cause they wouldn't give him a chance at another record.

We're not seriously going for some sort of anti-hetero prejudice thing here are we?? | |

Pretty much what I was going to say. But as always, you are much, much more diplomatic than I would be | |

How did you come to that conclusion where Gaga or any performer is concerned? I'm going to need an example. The only one's getting acknowledgement in every step taken are the mothers of these performers. Oh and God. They always thank their mothers and God. For every interview I've seen Gaga in, too many to stomach, she is always giving a shout out to her gays. I'm thinking, heffa, your first hit single Just Dance and your follow up Poker Face were all the rage amongst horny college aged troll bitches flashing their coochies at the club! Allegedly.
I could care little but I'd think if she wants to have a career as lengthy as Madonna she's going to have to acknowledge ALL her fans and ease up on the shock factor. She could keep on agitating PETA though. I like it when she does that. Turkey dress with rabbit fur coat please. I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!

I'm not trying to be. If you're runnin around all the time looking to pinpoint shit and deem it offensive you're pretty much a sorry twat.
Me thinks it's not even that they find it offensive at all, but that she's a big enough name to latch on to to get your group's name mentioned in the news. This is Gaga, for fuck's sake, not Toby-yee-haw- Keith. | |

You don't understand. Too often Gaga only thank "God" and gays for her success. | |

I say if you're going to do that, and you find something offensive, then good for you. Now close your bedroom and have yourself a good cry for 3 days under the covers, then get on with your life like the rest of the world that doesn't have time to sit around pissing and moaning about hateful everything is. | |

She's been backing up the LGBT community from the start of her career. Her earlier performances were done in gay clubs as well as one done at SF Pride. During her Monsterball tour she has been donating to LGBT youth I could list plenty of other things she has done but all I'm trying to get at is she may not always be eloquent but she has always supported the LGBT community. | |

God, by the way, is not about to acknowlege shit here today. Ain't no Mothers or Examples coming either. No, we are not going for some sort of "anti-hetero prejudice thing" here, and my posts are not representative of a me vs the straight people agenda - some of my best friends are straight, and some of them even have humor running through their rigid little brains and floppy little sexual organs.
What we are going for is very simple, acknowledgement - poor little straight things are not getting enough acknowledgement at the org. So, "now close your bedroom and have yourself a good cry for 3 days under the covers, then get on with your life like the rest of the world that doesn't have time to sit around pissing and moaning about hateful everything is."
"Straight fans", generally speaking, are given 90% acknowledgement in every step taken, no matter where they walk, no matter who they step on and no matter what they step in. Read a book. These are just basic facts that you can find at your local library.
Gaga clock ... 2...1...
Hey Tony, I do understand. Love your av.

I'm still trying to find out which performers and under what circumstances are giving 90% acknowledgement to straight people everywhere.
I know I don't catch all the award shows but dayum...
Gaga should wear a dress made entirely of pink ribbons to support the fight against breast cancer. Jus sayin'
Her shoes should be made of tri-tip. I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!

Am I reading the thread wrong (totally possible) or is she getting flak here for acknowledging a loyal audience that has backed her from the start? Why does she have to make a statement for every other cause or community? Where is it written that she can't just pick and choose what she wants to raise awareness for?
What I took from allsmut's "90%" comment was not so much that folk literally get up there on a podium and say "I'd like to thank my hetero fans" but that much of life (let alone popular music) acknowledges heterosexuals in one way or another (and that's actually OK, it's a fair reflection being that heterosexuals are the majority).
But to get butthurt (or even bother to point it out, as if you actually feel left out) over an artist acknowledging their gay audience is just...I don't know. Seriously? | |

You're reading the thread wrong. She's not getting flack for acknowledging gays.
I think TVD, allmust and I are arguing over his 90% comment which is complete bullshit IMO.
Actually TVD and Allsmut might be having another argument over something totally non-related to whatzhername.
ALL SMUT! I can't believe I just figured that out. Fuckin' orgers....you're all nuts! I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!

Gritz is just stirring up shit. ...knows what he/she is talking about, knows that he/she is patently off point and fully wrong, and has decided to be a schmuck about it just for fun. That's cool, just not really very fun, truth be told. Anyone who quotes Malcom X and Sister S - outsiders and thinkers both - can't seriously be that ignorant of Rights movements, can they?
Gaga hates breasts, ribbons, and the color pink. I don't know what to tell you, Gritz, but your fecal prosperity has left the building. (Or, you're shit out of luck on this one.)
The good thing in all of this is that I have discovered "butthurt". Really?! Nice! Gotta run, there is a slice of meatcake waiting for me. | |

u still nutty like an almond joy but I forgive you your over-sensitivity. I recommend Katy Perry as an anti-depressant. I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!

No Gaga card here. No matter how I sound to you, I have no need to take any pills, take care, or stop ruling you like a 12" piece of wood.
Your Sister Souljah and Malcom X cards have been officially revoked. You are instructed to remove their quotes from your tag, and are assigned some reading - Zami: A New Spelling of My Name - A Biomythography by Audre Lorde. Oh, and you need to work on a few concepts like insight, irony, sarcasm, humor in general ...

Now that Goose idea is the smartest thing either of us has spouted here today.
You ain't forgiving me nothing though. And you actually recommend Katy Perry as anything? Are you sure you're not ... 10%? | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Now you call yourself ruling me? Honey you couldn't rule me with a 12" dick or a crown! You DO need pills because you're arguing over nothing and failing miserably at defending your silly ass 90% comment which is still bullshit on rice. Read my sig everyday until your mind expands or your vision fails; whichever comes first.
How's that for sarcasm, irony, insight and humor in general? I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!

Katy Perry and Gaga are two sides of the same boring ass coin. One's an upper and the other's a downer. Choose your drug but remember...the effects on your mental health remain the same no matter which poptart you consume.
Meh...I will abstain from both those beeshes!
