Nowhere in it has he introduced older men in the equation or the need to stay a certain way. It’s not a Call me By Your Name thing at all. If he continues to push this image in ten years you might be onto something, but right now it feels like projection. We can criticize the stereotypes he brings into his aesthetics without bringing serious issues he has zero to do with it You’re missing the point.
TaylorNation Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 screaming that was so unnecessary, especially because it was genuine praise if I were Troye I would frame it as a badge of honor, queen 1 3

If a forty year old man on tinder said he was looking for a woman whose appearance was youthful and resembling a teenager then they’d be called a nonce. Alas, us gay men normalise this behaviour. so anyone who “looks” like a twink is basically glorifying pedophilia?

popmusicisdead Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 when will these twinks learn that no matter how many butthole soaps you buy fron her, Azealia Banks hates your homosexual asses 1

ThousandMiles Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 what pedophilia aesthetic is she referring to? I’m genuinely curious.. Is it his song Seventeen? Someone elaborate because she tends to make some points 1
Mr. Blue_Shirt Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 Gays who love Azealia are basically have stockholm syndrome at this point, goddamn

But let’s not pretend that the body positivity conversation didn’t happen when rush was released. If every single twink hadnt been shirtless I doubt the emphasis would have followed. If you naturally look younger that’s kinda unavoidable. When you act younger, surround yourself with people that look younger and then have them performing frisky choreo you’re normalising the “standard”. I’ve just been told his twink aesthetic is to appeal to his younger audiences who he’ll also no doubt influence, intentionally or otherwise. I don’t wanna really bring it down to p0rn - but in the last decade there’s been an increased emphasis on daddy/son, jock/twink, sun/Dom, femme lads are degraded as “sissy’s”, each of these en vogue scenarios implies a power dynamic. If you’re a young person seeing this as your representation and then seeing it in film, p0rn, music videos, dating sites and literature then evidently it’ll inform your viewpoint. My point is there are men out there that recognise this trend, and know how to take advantage of younger people who are able to be influenced, I’ve met some of them and they’re the lowest of the low. It’s not about Troye, or the other musicians that do this, nor is it about identifying as a twink, it’s about the wider impact this kinda thing has on mental health, the impact on what younger men think is “normal”. However my point stands if a forty something man on a dating site says he would like a woman to resemble a teenager and will only meet a woman who fits that category, people here would have a problem. As gay men we don’t question that nor it’s motivations. 3 4

Someone elaborate because she tends to make some points i think shes talkng about his overall career and how he looks younger and uses that to market himself. maybe his early works and bloom.

Mr. Blue_Shirt Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 Also, her saying that queer people coming out (in quotation, mind you) as trans is basically a grift?? WTF was that?! She's so f*cking vile 7
TaggedGalaxy Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 Wtf is she even talking about? She must be off her meds

CaptainMusic Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 This isn’t even funny, it’s absolutely disgusting. I don’t know how anyone can still stan this vile hasbeen in 2023. 3
ScorpiosGroove Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 (edited) azealia’s always biting the hand that feeds her… or the hole who buys her soap Edited November 8, 2023 by ScorpiosGroove 4
Alex Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 There was literally no need to turn this compliment into an argument and spew homophobic and transphobic rhetoric but that's Azealia Banks for you huh 9
SmittenCake Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 Calling him a pedophile because he's gay and then being trans a grift but Queer people will continue to be self-hating weirdo's because 212 is such a "bop" or whatever You see what happens when you praise a notorious homophobe and transphobe?

Hephaestus Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 People will never learn... Stop praising, quoting, even mentioning her. She's a trash person and doesn't deserve any recognition. 1 1
