In these days where "he was gay at me so I had to kill him" is still a valid defence in a court of law (see todays excellent post by
troubleinchina)
It strikes me how afraid a certain proportion of society is of Gay in general.
To paraphrase Hank von Helvete: "We were wondering what we could do to be hardcore, and nobody was afraid of the fluffy satanists anymore, so we decided to wear tight denim and pink lipstick. It is the only thing that scares the metalkids."
Satanism/nazism/cannibalsm/S&M is done to death, gay is the new taboo to break?
"Man against man" is also a theme in this song by Kaizers about a mans visit to the brothel.
So what is the issue?
This is all good yeah, more gay into the mainsteam?
That may possibly be true, but why on earth is gay now more scary to the average metalfan than cannibalism, nazis, and the devil combined?
This is where we insert some ponderings about feminization, and why on earth being REDUCED TO A WOMAN IN THE EYES OF OTHER MEN is something so bad it warrants gaybashing.
