Topic: survey: how gay is disco?

lets face it, disco is a traditionally gay genre, and although most of the gay disco icons come from america, and are more part of the american disco sound than the european sounds, you cant deny how gay some songs or sounds are.

italo is quite the "swishy" sound, what with stars like fancy and young twinkish eye candy like eddy huntington, not to mention fun fun would be a gay 12 year old boys wet dream! but how gay is the sound?
this is an honest curiosity, how many of the people involved in the italo scene are/were gay?
and how many fans are also light in the loafers?

you dont need to answer here,
we have an annonymous survey to rack up all answers and tabulate results.
(survey will take no more than 5 minutes. for cereal!)

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=W … Rs0Q_3d_3d

i'll tabulate responses after 50 people fill out survey. post here to let me know you have responded.

Re: survey: how gay is disco?

this is stupid.
how can a sound be gay?
and what is the purpose of knowing how many fans are 'light in the loafers'?

Re: survey: how gay is disco?

I answer here because you had open a topic.

I don't think that a sound - or a music - could be gay or not. It's dosen't make any sense.

Re: survey: how gay is disco?

no but particular sounds attract particular sects of people.
i'm just trying to figure out the general demographic of those who listen to italo (and comparing it to other sounds)

but of course a sound cant be gay! *pfft* relax people, it's the internet and its just silly fun.

Re: survey: how gay is disco?

There are two types of people that love italo and hinrg. People who like to have sex with men and people who wish they could have sex with synthesizers. I'm of the latter. Not gay but I've loved italo since it was on the radio when I was a little kid.

"One of the most surprising things is the similarities between fans of classical music and heavy metal. They're both creative and at ease but not outgoing.
The general public has held a stereotype of heavy metal fans being suicidally depressed and of being a danger to themselves and society in general. But they are quite delicate things."
