It wasn’t gay at the time. It was pushed as straight and masculine. Much how lgbt-bs is being pushed today.
Looking back, you see judas priest and freddie mercury being touted as masculine, but they were as queer as a 3 dollar bill.
It’s emblematic of how “hackable” our minds are.Comment

Hah, I remember when one of my Jr High friends told me Rob Halford was gay. I was like that just bullshit, there's no way someone so cool could be gay. It's just not possibleIt wasn’t gay at the time. It was pushed as straight and masculine. Much how lgbt-bs is being pushed today.

Metallica is from the bay area which is considered gay AF. They even played with Faith No More who was called "gay disco".

It wasn't all good, but everything felt so real, raw and free in the 80s and 90s. Everybody could just be what they were and nobody cared to maga about it.
At least that was my experience in NYC at the time. Big time shift after 9/11 and it never stopped shifting, now everybody hates another group of somebodies for one reason or another 🙃“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”Comment
