Agree!! she's a fraud


Beyonce is no more fake as some of the favorites discussed on this forum. It gets tiring to just think up things to hate on this woman because some feel threatened by her success. IMO, Beyoncé is more real than some who I could name. Not one time have I seen this lady be anything more than what she is. Btw, I am not a Beyoncé Stan. I like her music and think she is a wonderful overall performer. This woman's work ethic and talent is the reason for her success. She worked for it and deserves it. Btw,I do NOT think that Beyoncé is homophobic.

Today's society has become way too sensitive.


I know some of the artists whose songs I like are rbigoted and/or their political views don't align with mine but if I like a song or an an artist's work, I tend to leave it at just that. I would take financial advice from Donald Trump, knowing that he has failed and came back from it and failed again and came back from it but I wouldn't listen to a damn thing he has to say about people or culture or politics for that matter. This whole idea of picking apart people and singling out one thing that is different and using it as a basis for vitriol has become rampant in society. I'm sick of people using it as a control tactic and I'm sick of it in general.


Nobody should care about airhead Beyoncé's political stances, religious stances or her views on sexual identity. She is not an expert or authority on any of those things. She's just a damn performer. Is she good at her job? Do you like her songs? That's about where it should end, IMO.



I agree with everything that you said; except, the "airhead" part.

No but I'm curious, exactly what does that consist of if one were to go about doing so?


It would consist of whatever one decides to say or do.

If one decides to stay silent or inactive, so be it...but as I said, I'll continue to believe that they align themselves with all the teachings in the bible - including the passages that many use to excuse or justify their bigotry.


As a Christian I've always believed marriage is between a man and a woman . But just because I believe this doesn't mean that others should. My issue is with discrimination and how the church seems to endorse hatred towards gays. That's absolutely crazy to me. Especially since churches are filled with fornicators and adulterers week after week . Last I checked sin was sin. My parents are homophobic so when I hear them discuss the same sex marriages I ask " why do you care, how does it affect you ? Im always met with silence. So now I'm like hey if two people same sex or not want to get married knock yourselves out. Who am I to say how you should feel. How one feels is how they feel. I guess beyond everything Im just anti discrimination.

If is a sin, let´s in hands of The Almighty the judgement, they pay their taxes as everyone so they deserve rights to be respected and recognized by goverment and society, aside moral or religious thing.

Same here. Today on the radio they were talking about her and one of the DJs said she was on Michael Jackson's level. It made me physically SICK to hear that and I changed the channel. I am tempted to send the DJ an email or tweet letting him know I turned him off for making such a stupid and baseless comparison!

Trolls be gone!

Pretty much everybody used to be a homophobe.

Even a lot of gays start homophobic, then realize they are projecting. smile It doesn't help that most churches still teach hatred. Homophobia is engrained in the culture.

Most real churches teach the Word of God that says male booty poopin is a sin! eek razz lol

The Book of Romans is in the New Testament. And it states exactly how God feels about male on male sex.

You know God feels a lot of things about a lot of stuff, that a lot of people ignore anyway. This isn't the center of God's attention as it seems to be with a lot people. There's stuff about specks and beams in the new testament too.

So, some people can't or aren't capable of evolving? confused

President Obama did always support gay marriage either.

One of the biggest mistakes the Civil Right Movement made was to link the need to be liked / love with respecting, protecting, and upholding the laws, irrespective race. People don't have to like or support the Gay community, but they can't use the goverment to infringe or deny equal protection under the Constitution of the United States. The goverment doesn't have the right to allow those who belong to religious organization to use their religious dogma to abuse and violate the rights of others based on their religious beliefs. Period.

She might have actually been one at one time. But 89% of her fanbase are insane homosexuals. So she of course she's for gay rights now lol

Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

razz Good point.

But on a serious note, I don't think its that deep. I think beyonce is just branding to what is popular and her audience. I don't think she geniunely cares about gay rights or gay issues.

I read that as maybe it's not a sinister or greedy motivation and many suggested but just a simple change of heart due typical exposure to the subject.
