#also i think that's partially why the g4ylor conspiracy is so appealing

hate to play devil's advocate towards myself but i think when it comes to discussions about queer artists and erasure, it's not really fair to compare artists who mainly sing about being queer 1:1 with artists who only mention it in passing (and also artists whose chart hits are about being queer vs artists who sing about it in their albums, but not widely known singles)

i think it's fucked up to act like artists are less queer if they don't bring it up, or if they're bi and mention a variety of relationships, but it feels a bit disingenuous to say 'people forget lady gaga is bi because of bi erasure' when it's like... partially sure, but also i just don't look up personal facts about celebrities because it's not my business unless they mention it in their own songs. if i want songs about the experience of being bi i will probably not start pulling up her albums. love her tho
