Straight guy looking for gay sex porn stories
However, Martin’s labeling, and the kind of attention Bunny is receiving, is not just innocent doting from fans. The term is also frequently applied by queer men to female pop stars such as Madonna, Ariana Grande, and Britney Spears. Of course the phrase “queer icon” has long been used for non-LGBTQ allies in a slightly slapdash, tongue-in-cheek way. Yo Perreo Sola is already one of Bunny’s most-watched videos on YouTube, clocking in over 200m views. These figures often become focal points of LGBTQ communities online, and are celebrated as groundbreaking. Then there are the scores of straight male actors who get casted in seminal queer roles, think Timothée Chalamet in Call Me By Your Name, and amass fervent followings through them. There are the winking, teasing lyrics and gender-pushing outfits of Harry Styles who, despite saying “I’m not just sprinkling in sexual ambiguity to be interesting”, has never actually delved into his relationship to queer aesthetics in ways that would actually be useful and concrete to young queer fans that look up to him. Recent examples include the blatant queer-baiting of former Disney star Nick Jonas, who would promote his new music at infamous gay clubs and even received an Out Magazine cover. Popular LGBTQ media and culture has always fixated on straight men who align themselves with queer causes and aesthetics. “Bad Bunny is not a queer icon but I am, you should buy my merch,” trans artist Chaseicon said in response to Martin’s claims. Not everyone is convinced by his newfound status.
And Bunny’s sudden position as “queer icon” raises the question why, yet again, a straight man is receiving outsized praise and attention for his LGBTQ activism.
Yo Perreo Sola was released only two months ago. At the same time, his development as a liberated, LGBTQ ally is still in its infancy. Bad Bunny sits at the helm of reggaeton’s crossover moment: performing at this year’s Super Bowl with Jennifer Lopez and Shakira and appearing on the top-charting Cardi B song I Like It.
