1. El Hip-Hop y su Larga Lucha con la Homofobia.
Un tema recurrente es la homofobia histórica y persistente dentro de la cultura del hip-hop y el rap. Los comentarios reflejan tanto la decepción por artistas icónicos como el reconocimiento de que es un problema profundamente arraigado en el género, aunque algunos artistas han comenzado a abordarlo.
- Homophobia doesn't surprise me. It's prevalent in hip-hop culture. He's just emboldened because he's sippin on gin & kool aid. They all need to have a suck off and get over it.
- Looking back the homophobia in hip hop was shocking. I can barely listen to it now.
- Popular 90s or 00s rapper has bad opinions about lgbt people. In other news the sky is blue lol. Did people forget hip hop had and has a massive homophobia problem that's just now getting kind of addressed lol.
- The snoop dogg thing is not surprising, homophobia has been ingrained in popular hiphop for as long as i could remember.
- Even today rap fans are saying "no diddy" as a way of saying "no homo" - the fact that he assaulted men was more damaging to him than the assault itself. Rap has a massive homophobia problem.
2. "Disco Sucks": Reinterpretando el Rechazo como Racismo y Homofobia.
Varios comentarios reexaminan el movimiento "Disco Sucks" de finales de los 70, concluyendo que la aversión al género no era solo una cuestión de gusto musical, sino que estaba fuertemente impulsada por prejuicios racistas y homofóbicos contra las comunidades que lo originaron.
- Anti-disco sentiment was always about the intersection of racism and homophobia.
- You ever watch that bee gees documentary? it went through the whole anti-disco movement and showed how it was all just thinly veiled homophobia.
- Realizing that all the ‘disco sucks’ takes throughout the years were just homophobia (and a lil racism) was a big moment for me in both music appreciation and understanding how we got to where we are today.
- How fucking stupid do you have to be to be fooled into believing disco was anything less than the purest distillation of all that is good about music? racism and homophobia will have people cutting all the joy out of their shitty little lives.
- The disco backlash also had a lot of racism/misogyny/homophobia behind it, but i think you may be onto something, here!
3. La Música como Reflejo y Protesta.
El archivo destaca canciones y artistas que han abordado directamente la homofobia, ya sea para denunciarla o como un reflejo de las actitudes de su época. Algunos comentarios celebran la valentía de quienes se opusieron a la intolerancia, mientras que otros lamentan cómo letras homofóbicas arruinan canciones que de otro modo disfrutarían.
- In 1994, way before it was common for musicians to speak out for gay rights they released homophobia. A song about homophobic violence and how it's tacitly and openly supported by the police, state, and church.
- That’s always been my diss track, but it’s so hard to listen to now due to the homophobia of the lyrics.
- I like many enjoy the epicness of the guitar riff in money for nothing but the homophobia ruins the song.
- White gays love acting like anything black is inherently homophobic even though their father that listens to metallica and aerosmith was the one that used to smack them upside the head if their wrist went limp. Like why are we in it. Kendrick literally has a song about confronting his homophobia.
- In the age of what is official homophobia this is a protest song. You have to love the rocky horror show.
4. El Impacto Personal: Homofobia Internalizada y la Experiencia del Fan.
Los comentarios también exploran el efecto personal de la homofobia en la música, desde la dificultad de disfrutar de artistas del pasado hasta la lucha contra la homofobia internalizada que estas letras pueden generar. Se discute cómo la música puede ser tanto un refugio como una fuente de dolor para la comunidad LGBTQ+.
- The internalized homophobia is so bad rn i can't even listen to my diva playlist.
- It’s hard for me to imagine having gotten through life as a young closeted gay kid swimming in homophobia had it not been for his music. And yet….
- I used to dismiss his homophobia because i was such a huge fan as a teen, hell earlier today my first instinct to roll out the "but elton john!" excuse. But the truth is that eminem was probably a big reason i had to deal with internalized homophobia lmao. He was homophobic trash. It's a fact.
- The whole situation is very sad in my opinion, it sounds a lot like internalised homophobia. So let's play it at every lgbtq event to piss the frontman off.
- You’re so right, it really does come from internalized homophobia. It’s sad when even gay ppl say we shouldn’t speculate. Have you heard of a gaydar?? it’s how we live, it’s how we find each other, it’s how we stay safe.
