St. Vincent on Madonna: We don't need a straight person as a spokesperson for gayness


Recommended Posts

Posted

So many people did not even bother watching this interview, she's clearly saying Madonna has already done what she wanted to. There would have been NO room for ANOTHER cis-het passing woman to exist as an icon for this community. So she took an alternate route and ... FAST SLOW DISCO is more of an LGBT anthem than anything Madonnasaurus Rex could ever cook up, even today :coffee2:

madonna went to hospitals visiting aids patients who were abandoned by their own families. nurses later said she was nicknamed "Dorothy" (from the wizard of oz). she smuggled experimental drugs from Mexico just hoping it would help.. all of this in the 80s.. behind the scenes.. she was just on stage a few hours ago honouring the victims of pulse, crying.. she doesnt need to say or do anything like this but still knows it's important. you should be ashamed of yourself.

 

I didn't know any of that and now i feel terrible.

 

I sincerely apologize. Every day you learn something new.

I'm sorry, but this is some modern rhetoric brain rot. 

 

Madonna used her massive platform to support queer people when we needed it most at great personal risk. What more could we ask of her? 

 

EDIT: It sounds like her point is perhaps being intentionally misconstrued for a soundbite, but I stand by mine! I think there's this whole push currently that asks allies to both shut up and stay in their lane while somehow also wielding their power and privilege to help us which is a contradiction. Personally, I'd rather take the latter.

Because she has had relationships with women, including with Ingrid Casares from 1993-1994, who is still her friend today.

And we don't need you for anything. Madonna never "took over" the conversation nor was she our "spokeperson". Wtf did that come from? She simply showed support when no one else would. Plus, it's way easier for non-queer people to at least get exposed to queerness, and potentially show support too, through someone who has a massive gp reach. Who the **** is gonna pay attention to what Vincent has to say when she's barely even known within the lgbt community, let alone those outside of it. Dumb butch.

 

It's like saying Dinah Jane is more likely to raise awareness about climate change than Taylor Swift.

because she's had relationships with women. in the early 90s she did an interview with carrie Fischer, which strongly alluded to her preferring women over men, but that she also can't go without men either. but she doesn't like to label herself. I think she's bi, but that's just my opinion

Madonna has never claimed to represent gay people, she stood up for us in a time when no one else would 

This :clap3:

 

Anyway, Madonna contributed a lot to gay community through her music and kind heart, especially during AIDS crisis, when many pop stars were silent coz they was afraid to lose their careers  :gaycat2:

And you think M did because she wanted to? she did because she believed in the gay comunity. Madonnasaurus? It`s like that you treat a woman? Do would like *** if someone treated some woman in your family like that? Shame on you.

Obviously she has a point.  I don’t understand why people are mad? It’s not like she said anything negative about Madonna, in fact, it was nothing but praise.
