Justin Bieber is an American singer yeah

Hes only 16, but he sounds like hes 10 or younger, which is why some people call him a she, coz he sounds like a little girl :P

He's not homosexual, though. He's had several girlfriends.

Just a very feminine look and voice.

What country are you from?? I assume your not from the Unite States?? I am not but in my country some kids really likes her but when I look at her she looks like a "she".
PS-Bieber is a he they only called him a she to prove he's gay. ;)

Actually I am from the US. But I don't watch MTV, I don't talk to kids, and I don't pay attention to whats popular. If music is good, I'll find it. But, anyway, thanks for answering; I think I got the idea. I'll steer clear of this Bieber he/she.  :lol:

Post by: idl12 on 2010-05-19 22:01:58
Took me a while to figure out he was a she... one day when we were talking about which female singer we would sleep with I said"definitely that girl from that "first love" song,, her voice is hot!!."  I was not informed of the folly of my words until a few days later after I noticed everyone was watching me funny....

He looks and sounds 9, and his songs sound like they were written by an especially dim 9 year old, how the hell is he 16? His dad must be some manner of evil sorcerer.

Yeah, I can either enjoy his existence (or at least balance it out) by cracking jokes, or I can be silently annoyed. The former quite obviously has a more utility. I should not have to explain criticism in this manner.
On a side note, as long as we're sort of talking about a musician, technically speaking, I guess, if anyone here is a fan of Meshuggah, Devin Townsend, or Cynic, instant new best friend hugs/bumsexes.

Yeah, so do I.  So uncorroborated and baseless.  I mean, this...

Well all humans in the world should know that the name "Justin Bieber" is another term for gay, lesbian or homosexual. :evil:

Kids, don't take anything from anyone who honestly believes that Zack is superior to Sephiroth...
Just don't :P

But on a more relevant note, why do celebrities always get such snobbish treatment with or without merit?  Why do humans always have to promote someone to idol status, then bring down that same person?  Is it an inferiority complex?  Or is it merely the need to insult someone who everyone knows so that you can have your own destructive in-group of people who agree with you?

Not to troll, but the concept of fame bothers me in that it always seems to come at the price of getting this kind of reception from some people.

Doesn't look like it.

What bothers me about this thread is the fact that Justin Bieber is a 16-year old male who genetically looks and sounds younger.  Probably the main reason why he is popular is that he is just so adorable.  What kind of base is that for negative criticism?  What's he going to do, try and grow older faster?  It's like someone declaring you gay because you have a major acne problem.  Why insult Justin for what he naturally is?  He still has the right to spend his life doing what he wants to do.  Stop exploiting free speech and just leave him alone :(

"Negative criticism is fine, destructive criticism is not" is basically what I'm trying to say.

He's never gonna see it, so all I can do is make fun of him (or, more specifically, his incredibly bland music itself, and his fans, not him as a person, if that helps), because, as I said, there's a lot more utility in that than in being silently annoyed. And, he won't be offended, and I don't mind offending fans if they really care that I hate something they so shallowly adore. The same applies to Lady GaGa, Ke$ha, and everything else sillybuns.
And hey how did you know I had a major acne problem? Are you stalking me?
Title: Re: Justin Bieber is Gay

I'm The Seer of Shadows.  I see many things I shouldn't be able to :o :o

I have to say, "insulting people is fine because they never find out" was once one of my philosophies.  But you can never predict the ramifications of what you say or do.  What you said here might lead to someone else saying something else elsewhere, which might, by some series of events, just find its way to the one you insulted.

But that's getting very anal - think about it that way and we might as well just never say anything at all.

How about putting it this way: criticize his music, fine.  Criticize his choreography, fine.  Criticize his haircut, fine.  Criticize the behavior of his fans, fine.  They're all things that can be amended, so any criticism there would not be purely destructive.  Just try to avoid attacking him for what he is, because there isn't much he can do about it.  No fruitfulness in being offensive, whether or not it reaches the ears of anyone it might offend.

I realize I may have come across as being a bit extreme in this thread... sorry about that.

I think you've exaggerated here.

Oh and something about how using gay to mean bad is offensive etc etc.
(aww strikethrough doesn't work in a post title?)

You're clearly not taking this seriously. Which is fine, it is the internet after all - a person shouldn't really expect to come on to the board he's known for ten years without experiencing some homophobic comments disguised as playground talk.

I'm aware that half of this community nowadays could probably care less, but comments like "Justin Bieber is gay" are detrimental to the integrity of this place. Not to mention offensive to me - personally. I don't really give a shit what anyone thinks about gay people in general, and I'm also aware that the author of this thread probably meant no harm, but the problem lies with throwing words like "gay" around negatively. Theres f.uck all wrong with being gay, and I'm sick and tired of having to argue with people to get them to have a bit of tolerance about how other people might feel.

So I guess now I'm not only a grammar nazi, but a political-correctness nazi too.

This post may seem a bit aggressive, but this is around the fifth time I've had to post about homophobia on this forum over the years, and I am very very very tired of it.

And nikfrozty, thank you for apologising. This is the completely unrelated board - you can say whatever the hell you want about Justin Bieber in my opinion, just watch the terms you use, OK?
Title: Re: Justin Bieber is Gay

Alright dude, I hope you don't take that argument any further, even though I'm more into rap, disturbed, Linkin Park, Slipknot, Cradle of filth are the few Rockbands who I think actually "Rock" but anyways, you probably meant that in the most non-offensive way possible so I'll let it slide. Then again, I guess we're all entitled to our own opinions so you probably have your reasons, heck if I named some of the artists I listen to, a lot of people would probably disagree the same way. ;D

Damn... I gotta admit, that dub fx guy is pretty good, can't say the same for those clLOUDEAD guys though, I'm more a fan of guys like Eminem(probably the only one I actually buy the albums for) and 50cent(yeah, I know), other than that, just about eveybody from d12, usually things similar to their style and by that I mean anything with random violence involved, hence the reason I listen to guys like disturbed ..hehe but I really like dub fx, it's a shame I never actually heard about him before.  :-D

Stop bashing him. If you think he's gay then just don't listen to him or don't pay attention to him.

I could post a thread about how I think you're gay and what would that solve? Nothing.


Disturbed sucks.

I'm not a Disturbed fan so don't think I'm offended but isn't that a bit hypocritical?

Maybe he really just meant don't call things "gay" like that? Doesn't sound like he did though.. yeah, damn that dirty hypocrite!

No it doesn't. He said "Stop bashing him"; the word bashing has nothing to do with calling someone gay.


On another note, I agree with Prince Lex, people need to stop using the word gay in a negative context.

Oh and something about how using gay to mean bad is offensive etc etc.
(aww strikethrough doesn't work in a post title?)

You're clearly not taking this seriously. Which is fine, it is the internet after all - a person shouldn't really expect to come on to the board he's known for ten years without experiencing some homophobic comments disguised as playground talk.

I'm aware that half of this community nowadays could probably care less, but comments like "Justin Bieber is gay" are detrimental to the integrity of this place. Not to mention offensive to me - personally. I don't really give a sh*t what anyone thinks about gay people in general, and I'm also aware that the author of this thread probably meant no harm, but the problem lies with throwing words like "gay" around negatively. Theres f.uck all wrong with being gay, and I'm sick and tired of having to argue with people to get them to have a bit of tolerance about how other people might feel.

So I guess now I'm not only a grammar nazi, but a political-correctness nazi too.

This post may seem a bit aggressive, but this is around the fifth time I've had to post about homophobia on this forum over the years, and I am very very very tired of it.

And nikfrozty, thank you for apologising. This is the completely unrelated board - you can say whatever the hell you want about Justin Bieber in my opinion, just watch the terms you use, OK?
Hey man I agree I just, really could not be bothered forming that argument while posting from school, in class. The thing I usually see is that, by now, when gay is used that way, there usually isn't any conscious link to homosexuality at all. The problem is, gay is still very much coupled to homosexuality, enough that everyone reading or hearing at least briefly considers is, and it sort of, I guess, linguistically enables homophobias continued existence.
Now, in the similar case of fag, although it could be said to do the same, I take a different opinion about how that one should be approached. I think fag is probably in such wide use in generic contexts by my generation, and starting to come decoupled from any homophobic contexts enough that any assumption of bad faith is likely to just lengthen the period before it simply becomes a shift of word usage and stops being homophobic.
Of course I could be wrong, and while it is a pretty vast reservoir of anecdotes in this case, it is still being anecdotal.

@therage800: Yeah I know that I started my previous post that way for reasons that are already unknown to me.

@ScottMcTony

I see what you mean. I don't actually know where you're from, but here in the UK I use fag to describe cigarettes, but actually think that "faggot" is the most offensive term you can call someone. Use of this word depends on where you're from - it's in much wider use as an insult in NA than it is here. The word faggot is derived from the French "faggeaux" which was the kindling used to burn witches at the stake - so when you call someone a faggot you really mean "I think you should burn". That's where the word comes from.

But just ignore my lecturey ramblings now, I was having a bad day and having now watched the last ever episode of Lost, feel the need to drown my sorrows in alcohol.

Post by: The Seer of Shadows on 2010-05-25 12:45:47
So "faggot", which means "you should burn", has evolved to mean "male homosexual"?  Wow, that's kind of scary...

I would argue that calling someone "gay" is a form of bashing.  I don't mean to be disrespectful to homosexuals, but challenging someone's sexuality is a severe insult (at least, in the society I live in).

Though ironically, there's a big difference between using it passively and using it seriously.  Sometimes, if I playfully diss a friend of mine, he might laugh along and make his comeback by calling me "gay".  He had a reason for it and doesn't really mean it at all to begin with - that's fine.  But if someone randomly called me gay for absolutely no discernible reason at all, I'd make a mental note of that person >:(

Having said that, I am against the use of that particular word as an insult, which is why I avoid it myself (my variation is "screw you", something I also tend to avoid typing because it looks a lot more confrontational in writing than it sounds when I say it :-X).  However, I think that, with so many people using it as an insult these days, the only way it'll ever stop is if it is naturally phased out over time.

Asylum's out in august by the way

I know, I'm getting excited.

what song announced so far do you wanna hear the most?

The Sickness. Oh wait, er, new album?

there new album, Asylum, releases this august, i personally want to hear serpentine the most

Disturbed sucks.

ok, now im absolutely sure you got a beef with me

Not really I just don't like them. I personally think they suck. It's an opinion.

He was calling Justin Beiber gay, but I said Disturbed sucks. One is a false statement (or slander?) while the other is an opinion.

"Disturbed sucks" is not an opinion; it's stated as fact. "I think Disturbed sucks" or "In my opinion (or IMHO) Disturbed sucks" is an acceptable opinion.

Seems pretty much standard pseudo-deep meaninglessness to me. My bigger problem with Disturbed is the very derivative music. Not pop bad, but far worse than anything I could actively listen to. But I dunno maybe you don't even judge music in that manner.

The Division Bell is my 2nd fave after DSotM. But I also like a lot of Barrett's stuff. The Piper at the Gates of Dawn is the most original of any imho.  He was a genius.  I think the Wall is overrated compared to those three. Comfortably Numb is prob the most overrated song they ever did.  Everyone I know likes it the most - and I think mostly because they are expected to.

TDB is a good choice.  I'm more of a WYWH person, there's just so much heart in that album.  I saw DG last year at MSG; he played an INCREDIBLE rendition of High Hopes.  I've got a pretty fucking good recording of it if you'd like.  As far as the earlier albums go, and as much as I love Syd Barrett; I'm personally of the opinion that the band wasn't really "clicking" as a cohesive whole until Saucerful.  Saucerful, to me, sounds like the perfect advancement of Syd's ideas, and it turns them into much more cohesive song structures.  That's not to say that songs like Astronomy Domine, or Chapter 24, or Bike aren't cohesive; but to me, they just sound like they're missing -SOMETHING- musically, and I can't quite put my finger on it.  I also think Atom Heart Mother is an underrated album (I also got to see DG play Fat Old Sun which took me by complete surprise).  It contains the essence of the DSOTM - The Wall era, but it still has the heart of the Syd Barrett/early David Gilmour era.  Shit...  I feel like we could probably discuss this for days.
