you can’t deny that there is a seedy counterculture of gay boys who have Ke$ha posters on their wall without trying to be ironic. they’re serious about worshiping Lady GaGa, their mother monster, all the while being the most tragically dimwitted people on earth. I have a strong urge to shake them and yell at them something in the vain of, “what are you doing?” I’m just sad that some of the most genuine people in the world are ravaged by mainstream/consumer culture to craft their social identity. makes me want to gag on a nine inch dildo
I don’t think I could have said it any better myself. This is literally my EXACT position on this section of the gay community.
All of this garbage popped up on this little itty bity picture that I posted that had a kesha poster in the background. Let me just break this down for you folks: I’m so annoyed by these people that I randomly come across twitter that have this horrible case of Diarrhea mouth. Didn’t your mom ever tell you that if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say it at all? ESPECIALLY if there’s a chance it’s going to get back to the person who it’s about. Like, come on.
Anyways, I just wanna say a few things. I don’t know these people, and they don’t know me. I’ve never talked to them in my life. Like, all of a sudden they are just SO SURE that I’m Gaga crazed. SURE, I enjoy her music, but to be completely honest, I don’t like how over the top she is sometimes. It’s entertaining, but I prefer the more mellow, stripped down stuff. She’s really not even my favorite music artist. Again, this is personal opinion and I’m not trying to offend anyone but I prefer a lot of other artists over her. I just don’t post that via tumblr because I know a lot of you guys absolutely adore her and I wouldn’t want to cause any tension. I’m just not like that.
Secondly, I don’t know who this kid is calling dimwitted. I got a 26 on my ACT, I have a 3.5 GPA and I’ve been accepted to some of the most prestigious colleges in my state. I’m in AP English and AP Physics and I have a good job and a reputable company, American Eagle, that I was Employee of the Month at two months in a row. This isn’t meant to be a brag session, but seriously? Dimwitted? I think not.
And about liking Ke$ha, WHO CARES (and yes, I left the dollar sign in her name for dramatic effect)? Her music is such a guilty pleasure. She’s pure id. Listening to her music unlocks the gates to your most basic, inner, SLEAZY urges that everyone has. Plus, sometimes I just wanna dance.
Basically what I’m saying is don’t judge someone before you know them. Being gay, that’s the one rule I always live by because, face it, we know how it feels. When gays stereotype gays it’s just as bad as when straight people stereotype gays. Go ahead, shake me and ask me what I’m doing. I’m just going to ask you to stop touching me because you smell like beef and cheese.
Look, dude, I don’t know you. Hell, I found out you made this post by you messaging it to me. You make very good points in the above posts. You summed up my entire personality so…perfectly! I just love tearing apart gay men who like ke$ha (the “$” was for dramatic effect, right?!) because, since you know me so well, I wouldn’t judge other people in general for liking ke$ha? No, you got me all kinds of twisted. I hate fucking hate myself for listening to ke$ha. I’m only on Tumblr for one reason: to make seemingly witty observation about random people on the internet for comic effect. I knowingly judge people for what they wear/say/listen to - especially ke$ha. Just because you don’t outwardly show your disdain for Lady GaGa does not make you better than me. But I’m so confused as to why such a fuss was made over what I said. Do people actually take me seriously? My face rn:
