A lot of girls in my school, including me and lots of my friends like gaga. They just arent hardcore fans. More like casual listeners that enjoy her music but dont really knwo about her personal life and stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nirvana 2,689 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 This straight girl LOVES Gaga I don't know if it has anything to do with my sexuality though, I wasn't into pop at all when Gaga came to the pop scene. Only Bad Romance cought my attention and I started to search more about her. I realised how talented she is, all the live performances blew me away. Also the fact that she's a rock girl at heart, and it shows in her performances too. Also her overall message about standing up for those who are in minority and bullied (in the BTW era) made me love her even more. I have so little amount of friends that I cannot answer if straight girls in general like her, but those I've seen sometimes share links of her songs on fb, I do think that they respect her for the things she stands up for and think she is talented too.

She really is empowering and many many girls (straignt or not) admire her for it. Specially how she treats taboo topics regarding female sexuaity so naturally, it is liberating, especially coming from more conservative and gender oppressing countries.

musicnotbling 1,692 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 you know what it could also be? i attach to female figures in my life a lot. my mother passed away when i was only 10, and since then i've grown fond of older female figures in my life. not like a sexuality way because i know for sure i'm straight, it's like i look up to them. like teachers. every year or so, i find one teacher that i really relate to/feel comfortable with and it's usually a female. i sort of look up to them as motherly figures. i love what gaga's about and she's an amazing performer, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

freebit 6,066 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Another straight girl fan here. My sisters and the women in my friend circle all either like her, or are ambivalent - they are pretty diverse group that mostly ranges from late teens to early 30s - everyone seems to at least like one Gaga song. I actually don't think I've ever really met any other woman who outright hated her (or at least anyone that was vocal about it). I've also noticed she's also the most-followed "pop girl" of my friends on facebook and IG (Beyonce is the other most popular). I noticed a big uptick in her being mentioned on my feed when she protested and spoke out against Trump. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambrosia 3,775 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I am a straight WOMAN. I was first drawn to Gaga for her fierce and determined spirit and interesting approach to music. Gay, bisexual, straight or anything else never entered my mind. I know of zero persons in my life that attach any sexuality to any music they enjoy. I wanted to type something else but I've erased it so many times because I come out sounding like an ass, so I won't say anymore. Do not do to others what angers you if done to you by others. -Socrates Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow 6,039 Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 @Ambrosia I think we on this site can agree that music has no gender or sexual orientation. However, we do live in a world with social stigmas and those depend on where we are raised or live. There is a huge stigma against her where I am from in Texas, since it is very conservative and religious here. As a straight guy, i found out by many friends ending contact with me just because they found out I listened to Lady Gaga and assumed I was gay and "lost." Stigmas suck, but they happen. On this forum it happens when people assume everyone here is gay. It isn't true, I agree, but if anyone has been on this forum long enough they have probably seen those exclusive posts. That is one of the reasons it has been difficult to share Gaga's music where I live. I was wondering if girls and women deal with similar stigmas along with accounting for their demographic among the fanbase, just to be clear. Silence those demons... . 🖤 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas P 18,376 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 My best friends are sick of her only because I shove her down their throats. They love her (aren't major fans) but when I'm around I'm not even allowed to say her name. Same thing with Beyoncé. I ruin my favourite singers for my friends and family all the time. I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
giskardsb 12,565 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 The pop demographic is driven by females. No popstar could have reached the heights she has without the straight female demographic. https://www.forbes.com/sites/bobbyowsinski/2015/12/02/as-always-female-buyers-fuel-pop-music-sales/#1b9c6e013dac Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
