I don't follow 1D. I just wish more artists would put there money where their mouth is, instead of paying the LGBT community lip service. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar 1,031 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I understand the whole anti labels trend that's going on but it has a practical purpose too. If I want to describe myself of course i'm gonna say I'm a lesbean and I love other beans but that's not who I am, it's just a description like I have a few hair lines, a shell on my back, no bra, and a bean. What if I said to you, are those arms attached to your body? Would you say "That's not who I am I don't like labeling these things" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also for the OP gay is a valid label, if you're saying that you may as well go ahead and tell people who've had the label since the days where you could be arrested and murdered for it and wear it with pride. And while you're at it tell the black community they don't have to label themselves as black anymore even though for hundreds of years they've been attacked and wear that label with pride. Just like gay people. Being black and your sexuality are two totally different things. and I'm not gonna go there. I have ABSOLUTELY no issues with people knowing i like to suck **** and get it in the ass on the daily. I'm not ashamed of it. but Straight, bisexual and gay are social constructs, look it up. I could fall in love with a girl within the next month and i'm open to the idea. I guess my experience with men who identify as straight through the years has shown me how fluid sexuality is. And they aren't closet cases. Hearing about their very different reasonings of why they are attracted to men is fascinating. I've even heard stories of a self-identifying straight guy falling in love with his self-identifying gay roommate just because he developed a strong emotional connection to him. I truly challenge you to think about this on a deeper level. Labeling has only ever hurt our society Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorothy Gale 7,575 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 It's one thing to say that you are interested in men and women, but it's another to just say you don't want to be labelled. That could mean anything from homosexuality to asexuality to bi-curiousity. By saying you don't want to be labelled people walk away not knowing anything about you or your sexuality, it's a cop-out.

IamChromatica 2,025 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 If I was a pop star I would respond similarly If someone doesn't feel like telling their sexuality, no one should force them too. It's not anyone else's business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't mean that it's useless to label yourself. Some people even say species is a social construct, this chair I'm sitting in could also be a social construct.

Dorothy Gale 7,575 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 From a marketing perspective this is the perfect stance to take on your sexuality. Girls feel like they have a chance with you, gay guys do, yet you don't necessarily have to alienate the homophobic listeners by taking on a queer label.
