Can people not have multiple tastes in music and style?

Just saw a goth girl on a dating app. Spider tattoo on her neck, purple hair, black nails, fishnets, etc. Her top spotify songs were all taylor swift. This is a prime example of Batesian mimicry, in this essay, I will

You're so right about the Will Roland fanart problems. It seems like back when Will Roland was only known for Jared people were way more proWill because he could be their funny meme boi who ate bathbombs but now that he's a lead with all these emotional songs it's like God forbid he's not their "twink bby". Idk it annoys me so much especially when people draw the rest of the Broadway cast and still use WillC or do an animatic with WillRs voice and WillCs character ugh like. Accept the Roland pls

lmao we are all just out here grabbing the mic like “attention all bastards: Look, just because will roland isn’t your ideal fancast for most adorable twink of the year - “

really like, i have never come across any signs of there having been any pattern in the deh fandom of ~taking issue~ with will’s Abilities to sing or play the part of a struggling teen or whatever like what crops up re: him being the lead in bmc.....it also is unsurprising yet disappointing that like, jared and alana are so easily completely ignored, but when they Are acknowledged it’s super flattened interpretations like, either they’re both hypocritical jerks (just based on evan’s gfy accusations basically lol) or if they’re actually viewed in a positive way it’s just like, alana is your friendly local Model Student and jared is memes and neither of them are in the way! :3

you litrally cannot ignore jeremy the Whole Entire Main Character tho and also like. can’t ignore the fact that caring about jeremy as a Romantique Lead is ahhh important to many ppl in the fanbase? so him being regarded as ~less cute~ is more of an Issue b/c the character must be taken seriously and is the sympathetic hero and has a lot more solo material / more of Any material / more focus than jared does in deh.........you Have To Look At Him and care about his actual feelings and not just misinterpret the character as “has no serious emotions b/c he doesn’t say serious things in a serious tone” the way ppl misinterpret jared. there’s the assumption that someone who is good / sympathetic should also be attractive / cute / Personally Appealing To Look At and that wasn’t as much a conflict when ppl didn’t think it was important to sympathize / care about / pay attention to jared too much, and the “conflict” of caring abt jeremy’s capacity for a romantic relationship but that’s less important if he’s not as Cute also not being as much an issue when most people don’t care about jared’s romantic feelings or think that they exist despite jared being in love with evan But Anyways

like it is wild the things people will just make up to “justify” their Dislike for will, which has only manifested as apparent Issues thanks to him playing jeremy rather than jared........there’s the classic “mm idk i don’t think he can sing that well” approach which like. some people are just trying to say they do not like the inherent descriptive qualities of his voice, which is more nasal obviously and don’t anyone come in here with the “Actually the Technical definition of Nasal re Vocals is” b/c we know what i mean, alright? nasal voices are not considered ~serious~ and there’s the kneejerk dumb-annoying-loser-nerd association. god knows that jeremy heere canNot have characteristics that could be automatically judged as irritating and unappealing. then there’s the notion that He doesn’t have the (vocal) range!! which like. do you honestly think they would cast someone who doesn’t have the correct range. you’re aware that will roland was being considered for the part of jeremy in the two river run up to the last round of callbacks. you know that the song that was literally written expressly to suit will roland’s individual voice and singing abilities makes use of his falsetto which people go “omg he can’t hit those high notes” except sometimes when they misattribute his falsetto to other singers they suddenly find it worth complimenting. and then you get people who like, want to subscribe to this softened version of it and get all backhanded like “oh i think will’s vocals are improving whew that’s good” in any random video and always Only single him out apparently like. did you think he gets worse with experience? you don’t wanna talk about any of these other professional singers improving or worsening or anything? only wanna give ur assessment of william’s huh

honestly i for real haven’t seen the 1.0 version b/c i’m here via will roland in the first place & i’ve never gotten the impression that there’s some Essential Content i’m missing out on by having only seen 2.0........but between a) people complaining that will r’s jeremy is Too Frustrated He Shouldn’t Be That Angry It Makes Him Less Sympathetic and b) saying just as a point of comparison betwixt the depictions that will r’s jeremy is more frustrated and c) i haven’t read That much bmc fic but people sure talk about jeremy being like five seconds away from bursting into tears at any given moment which like, okay yeah aren’t we all, but also i presume this stems from will c’s apparently Sadder portrayal of jeremy. i almost forgot where i was going with this one but i think it’s just that yeah people truly take issue with will r’s jeremy being more frustrated and it’s like you realize there’s no Right or Wrong portrayal / interpretation even if you prefer one for whatever reasons......theatre just is Like that.......you have a slightly different portrayal during ever performance even from the same actors, and you’ll often have different actors playing the role........yeah people usually are attached to the first performance they see / have that as their Standard and that’s fine, it’s just like, you don’t have to decide that’s an Objective view and that you have Objective issues with everyone else’s take. 1.0 is still there for you

uhhhh oh yeah and the whole Clout idea lmao......people really putting themselves out there shaking their heads at the supposed fact that will was cast for the off bway run to Boost Popularity b/c he was part of the deh obc......besides the whole thing that it’s hardly likely that would’ve been considered necessary anyhow, there’s the little thing that a) again, will roland had already been very seriously considered for the part even before will connolly was decided on for the original run and b) like.....these people had been collaborating for eons and you really think will roland only popped into their minds thanks to being in deh....and c) joe iconis has repeatedly said they specifically did Not want to cast people based on who was Known enough and whose names would be good for marketing and d) maybe anyone has noticed that the marketing never involved any mention of anyone in the cast? no? cool. and yet people like so truly think they’re Wise to ~real reason~ that they’d go and cast will roland as the lead. like people are making shit up and really just thinking it’s true b/c they Want it to be true b/c they Want to be validated in having actual contempt for will’s casting despite the “issue” being that he doesn’t seem as Likeable (worthy of sympathy...cough...) thanks to his deemed-unattractive looks and sweetly-adenoidal voice and more-frustrated portrayal all seeming less cute or whatever

and i mean i haven’t seen it crop up of late but the one particular Grasping At Straws ~justification~ for will being unworthy of the part thanks to perceived acting/singing incompetence which is soooo wild is when people are like “ough i Hate when he just holds his arms out when he sings” like fmslkdj if anything that’s just an individual quirk and the fact that it was something you noticed means you just latched on to it as potential fodder for “the fact i registered this information abt someone whose existence i Resent means it distracted me which means i hate it and it’s bad”...like another thing he does with his hands while singing is when he makes the loose claws and kind of half crosses his arms in front of his chest! where are the complaints about that?? nowhere, b/c people have not really processed it as a particular thing, so they can’t deem it a Particular Thing To Criticize. people sometimes Notice that his jared talks with his hands a lot, which will says is an acting choice that came from an unconscious tendency, but people really only bring it up to juxtapose will’s jared’s dramatic tendencies and nervous habits with sky’s jared’s more outwardly still and smoothed-over behavior. aka they don’t Complain about it or deem it a weakness / bad thing. and yet people caring about bmc are really jumping on that chance to be like oh ugh there he goes again, having a characteristic i associate with him as an individual, disgusting, can’t believe will connolly was murdered for this..

it’s a bit clearer too with bmc moreso than deh that people aren’t super willing to accept how will roland Looks b/c like, thanks to will connolly’s jeremy having the long hair thing you can Tell The Difference In Which Actor Is Represented when ppl draw the character even if the rest of the features are kind of “generic” (and how even the costuming isn’t a dead giveaway since ppl will draw connolly jeremy in 2.0/3.0′s outfits) and it even serves to specify the actor in writing format too if they mention the hair lol........and honestly?? this fact is one of the most damning things lol in that people the reason so many ppl continue to produce connolly-based jeremys is Not because for whatever reason they can’t / it’s too difficult to draw a will roland lookin jeremy......like a lot of the time The trait which serves to distinguish between the two is the hair thing. people are adopting jeremy’s new costuming and stuff but choosing to make sure we know that jeremy does not Look like will roland and the clearest indicator of this is the longer hair thing......which also means that for many people the main effort they’d need to exert to make it clear they’re drawing wrol jeremy would just be to....shorten the hair. And Yet!!!! it is apparently beyond people to do this

like uh nice on making a lgw animatic but really.........really we’re gonna take the song that is specifically from the 2.0 / 3.0 runs, so it’s obvious we’re Accepting that non-1.0 content, okay......and we’re Accepting will roland’s vocals, which, a person’s voice is a physical trait of theirs too, same as The Existence Of Their Body........and yet jeremy Cannot Look Like How Will Roland Looks, that’s too far, can’t do that. we can take material from the specific versions the actor was cast in, that material being a song written specifically for this individual actor’s voice, in the form of this actor’s actual vocals......but can’t have the depicted image of jeremy be based on this actor’s appearance..............of all the......

really all that it is is that more people find will connolly more attractive than will roland and this makes them feel like will roland Is Worse and then the people who just run with that either just embrace that and are crashing around on public forums saying Lol i hate him cuz he’s ugly lmao....and then you have people who don’t wanna do that but don’t wanna actually examine why they ~take issue~ with will being cast and so they’ve gotta leap on any Other things about him that feel more acceptable / Objective like oh the portrayal is “Wrong” (that’s not how this works) or he can’t sing well enough (yeah he can) or high enough (yeah he can) or he was stunt cast (no he wasn’t) or they wanna label every characteristic / trait they can think up that Isn’t his physical appearance as Annoying And Bad like. maybe stop and ask why you find it SO pressing that this other actor has the part and it Must be objectively inferior if not ruinous for reasons you gotta invent about him being incompetent cuz it’s better to make stuff up about how a professional actor isn’t good enough for a part than to say you don’t think he’s cute enough and are bothered by that

it didn’t matter as much to people when they viewed his character as either Just A Joke or Just A Jerk or flat-out disposable material. being attractive is for serious sympathetic beloved characters, natch

unfortunately jeremy can’t be written off as The Unimportant Meme Friend With No Real Feelings so now there’s a whole problem if an actor is not as cute

like b/c of the way he looks ppl can accept that a character played by will roland can be funny or can be rude or can really not be too important to take seriously / consider complex or sympathetic or likeable beyond being a walking Running Joke, but when it comes to a sympathetic main character whose emotional state is so important it’s practically assigned a character and who’s a romantic lead? now people have a problem with him looking the way will roland does

Thanks for the analysis like I always had seen zayn haters said how "zayn only sings about sex" and that his album was "trash" smh someone even argue with me about how pillow talk was just about sex , tbh zayn deserve more I can't believe the media think his album is all about sex and doesn't care of see all the lyrics😕same happens with 1d when ppl say that their songs are meaningless when they are is annoying how they are looked down for being a boyband but other artistswith worse lyrics arent

Like most of ppl say that 1d "just sings about love!" But like EVERY artist do that ! Like I like the songs but why is Adele,Taylor ,Justin,Rihanna , Adam etc.. considered better than them? They all do mostly love songs , but they are more respected like Justin album is quite basic compared with zayn in lyrics but it's nominate for a Grammy! Meghan trainor has won a Grammy like?!why 1d can't ? Why boybands never won a Grammy?the wrost is that at least some were nominated but 1d isn't even that😕

Like if they can then WHY 1d can't 😒😕?even zayn solo was successful and wasn't nominate either( I know that the Grammys are for popularity but that is more because of all the A list singers 1d is the only one to don't even go to present someone or perform, maybe is because they aren't very popular with the GP?)but again I don't get what is wrong with boybands that Demi said she didn't wanted to work with 1d for that,5sos saying they don't want to be called a boyband, ppl saying 1d can't sing +

An are just faced what is untrue because they always sing live and without backtrack unlike most of the respected artists that use backtrack or lip sync(Mariah and Justin are examples but are WAY more that have been caught lip syncing )ppl thinking that all their fanbase is just kids females and make fun of that like they forget that the Beatles started like that but ok, why I don't get is all the disrespect for boybands and mostly for them,they are nice/talented they deserve better :/

Grammy’s

The Grammy’s like to pretend they’re about quality when they’re really a popularity contest and a political game just like any other awards show.

I know it’s frustrating to see the boys get snubbed.  I think part of the reason 1D and Zayn have never even been in the running for the Grammy’s is because your team has to submit you for consideration.  I doubt 1DHQ bothered, especially these last few years when they’ve been at full on war with the boys.  

When it comes to popularity, 1D has always been popular with their albums, but their singles haven’t broken the top 40 in the same way singles from other boybands in the past have. Occasionally 1D will get a single in the top 40, but it doesn’t necessarily stay up there for weeks in a row.  Part of the difference is just that the music industry is in a different place than it was when N*SYNC and Backstreet Boys were popular.

The other element is the idea of prestige that the Grammy’s holds dear.  There are several reasons why One Direction isn’t considered prestigious, all of which are pretty much BS.

Sexism

When it comes to the prestige part of it, you’re right that the Grammy’s and the general public look down on boybands for no solid reason.  The prevailing theory that has merit is that it’s a form of sexism.  People assume that only girls can like boybands because the reason to like them must be that the girls want to date the members of the band.  This is a load of BS since there can be any number of reasons to like a boyband, but people still believe that boybands are solely liked by young girls who want to date them.

Pretty much nothing young girls like is taken seriously.  Girls get called hysterical all the time while young boys can go crazy over video games or men can go crazy over sports and no one calls them hysterical.  Since boybands are seen as something young girls like, they’re automatically discredited by association.

It’s true that some boybands don’t have a very good quality of music, but that’s not true of all boybands by any means.  All genres of music have some popular bands that aren’t very good, so singling out the boyband genre and defining it by the bad bands isn’t fair if you’re not going to do that with other genres.

Elitism

People have a need to feel special, unique, and because of that, exclusive. Anytime something is massively popular, there’s a backlash because it’s no longer considered exclusive.  One Direction is victim to that backlash to some extent.

The other problem is that things that are light and fun are always considered superficial.  Things that are light and fun are not mutually exclusive to things that have depth and meaning, but people can’t seem to wrap their heads around that.  Bringing joy to people is a very important thing.  Hope, joy, and love can help people keep moving forward when they want to give up on their life, can inspire people to persevere against oppression, and can help people understand each other and stop the cycle of hate and violence.

Because One Direction’s genre started out as light pop and that’s when they had their massive hits that everyone has heard, people are more willing to dismiss their music.

Ageism

Ageism can go both ways.  There’s discrimination against older people and also against younger people.  Younger people are always seen as being naive and ignorant because they’ve lived fewer years.  It’s true that in many cases, older people have more experience and more wisdom, but that’s not true across the board.

One Direction are no longer teenagers, but 1DHQ never allowed their image to grow up.  Fans know that they curse, make sexual innuendos, and have political views, but non-fans don’t pay close enough attention to see those things.  All they see are the promo pictures and the merchandise that’s sold in stores and that stuff still makes it look like the boys are 16.

Manufactured Myth

Part of it is that boybands are considered manufactured.  People assume that it’s a money grab, which it is in many cases to be fair.  There’s an entire industry in South Korea and another one in Japan that’s targeted at creating new boybands to try to earn as much money as possible.  Even One Direction was created with that intention in mind, not that the boys themselves had any say over the goals of their careers.

People just don’t understand that the way you were created doesn’t define what you become.  It’s just like the difference between parents and children. Parents influence children, but children are not their parents.  You can have bigots with extremely open-minded children and you can have extremely decent parents with a child in prison for murder.

One Direction having the success that they’ve had isn’t a fluke.  It started on X-Factor when they had tons of fans lining up outside just to see them.  They already had an international following before they’d even released their first single.  The reason they’ve succeeded is because they’re talented, hardworking, have a rare chemistry between the members, and are genuinely good people.  

Believe me when I say I’ve seen quite a few boybands and One Direction is special.  Not every boyband has that chemistry and spark.  A band being formed without any input from the members themselves and yet working together so well is extremely lucky.  For the members to recognize what they have together and dedicate themselves to it is even rarer.  I only know of 2 bands like that- Arashi and One Direction.

Instruments and Writing

People also assume that if you’re manufactured, you must not write your own music or play your own instruments, and if you don’t do those things, you’re not authentic.  Both of those assumptions are wrong.  As the 1D fans know, pretty much all the boys are talented lyricists and all of them can play guitar. Niall even records for their albums and plays live on stage.  

However, even if they didn’t do this, there would be no shame in it.  Singing and performing are professions that require a lot of talent in themselves, so there’s no reason to demand that someone who sings and performs also has to be a talented instrumentalist, composer, and lyricist.  That would be like requiring someone who acts to also write scripts, produce, and direct.  Some actors eventually go down that route, but by no means are all actors expected to.

So Yeah

People who have that knee-jerk reaction of making fun of boybands have probably never thought about why they do it.  They’ve just absorbed the pervading sexism and elitism they’ve grown up with and they churn it back out thoughtlessly.

The best you can do is challenge anyone who says things like that to think about it more.  More than likely, they’ve never listened to any One Direction song that’s not a single.  In fact, they probably haven’t listened to anything from the last 2 albums at all.  They know nothing about the band and maybe if you point that out, it will plant a seed in their heads to start wondering what basis they actually have for their opinion.
