message 101: by theStorykeeper (new)

theStorykeeper "'Is This My Fate?' He Asked Them" by Story of the Year (CW: language)

"Is this my fate?" he asked them
They answered, condemning him to burn
Rejected, forsaken, for being f***ing born

I can't believe that this is still a question
That needs an answer
A bigot's eyes judging lives
Based on the sex of who you f***


Don't know how more obvious you can get. This song came out in 2005.

Sweet. I wish him all the best success. But a risk to take in Russia. Huge hugs to them.

That reminds me of Tom Goss' "Amsterdam" that is part of a series of songs about gay experience, named after (and set in) different cities. The video is a little NSFW in a couple spots, although the lyrics aren't.

Anna Kļaviņa (annamatsuyama) | 95 comments Tajik/Russian singer Manizha is going to represent Russia at the Eurovision 2021. And it's very cool since Manizha is not only fighting for women rights but also supports LGBT+

The song is about strength of Russian women
https://youtu.be/l01wa2ChX64

I have seen a lot of upset comments from racists & homophobes & anti feminist that are not happy.

Anna Kļaviņa (annamatsuyama) | 95 comments I'm very proud with my country's song for Eurovision this year
https://youtu.be/NBaCWHSyDzo

The song is great and I believe it has to be the first music video of Latvian musician with drag queen and two girls kissing.

And like Manizha in Russia, Samanta is speaking out for LGBT+ & women rights in Latvia.

Carrie-Anne | 105 comments Scene Queen - Pink Panther

https://youtu.be/lR8MXfsHr3A


This is her pinned comment on the video

- Hello friends! This video was directed, shot, edited, and styled by a female lead team. It’s shot for the female gaze. And with my added sense of humor in mind. The music industry loves to market women as sexy but seems to target that sexiness towards appealing towards men a large portion of the time.
I feel like men are catered to way too often so this video is not for them. (However they are 100% welcome to watch and enjoy) Having multiple women on this set adding in their ideas of what’s hyper feminine and what is sexy was truly a pleasure to be part of. Thanks to the entire crew for making this happen💖
Also yeah this music video is a little 🌈💅🏻😏 felt like if I was ever gonna let people know I’m bi might as well make it theatrical -

powerful and amazing - but content warning for abuse and self-harm. The end is uplifting but it's a hard journey.


✨scribbles and stars✨ I really like any of Girl in Red or Sir Babygirl's music. They both have great music.
