He By The Name Of Lambert

I remember back when I started attending Dragstrip, I would see a certain someone parading around in female attire, or at the very least glamtastic garb. And that person was Adam Lambert. Go girl! But now that she is in the public spotlight, the "I want to be straight" homosexuals are threatened. My thoughts on their insecurities - "what a bunch of whiny pussies". And it seems I am not the only one with similar thoughts...

From towleroad.com:

I have posted similar comments on other gay blogs and I will repeat it here - if gay men can't get behind a young, exciting, out gay artist and support him as much as we support divas like Kathy Griffin, Cher, Bette Midler and so on, we're screwed. Adam Lambert, whether or not you like his music, is a phenomenon, a phenomenally talented and OUT artist at the beginning of his career who has the potential to cross over and be as big as Madonna. Everyone in show business knows it. Only some bitchy queens who don't like his hair, eyeliner or whatever don't. Who needs the religious right to destroy us, when we have each other?

So what if he screwed up? By any standards, his AMA performance was a mess, but it was one hot mess. Adam was essentially saying - fuck you, I'm gay and hot and I'll push a man's face in my crotch and kiss another man in front of America if I feel like it. If gay men continue to demand exacting standards about how other gays should look, dress and behave, they're no better that Republican fascists. I have truly been aghast by some of the nasty comments I have read posted by gay men about him.

No wonder we don't have our rights. All we care about are hot guys with great bodies who look straight.
