Whatever happened to Joe Thomas? That guy advocated for women left, right and left again. If it wasn’t Joe, it was Jaheim letting us know that he can do Anything his woman wants, and Just in case he doesn’t make home on a certain night, he asked if he could make love to her just for the last time. Women worship these songs. They live by them and they shape up their relationships with them.
Yes, straight men on the other side have the likes of Celine Dion who Drive all night to get in their rooms. Men love this. A woman who shows initiative and ‘drive’. How beautiful. How wonderful. How lovely that these two groups complement each other this well.
Having said that, I feel that the world would have been a much better place had Luther Vandross, Michael Jackson, George Michael and Ricky Martin not hide their sexual preferences by proclaiming they had love and feelings only for women. Maybe the gay industry would have been so much more on the faithfulness side of things and less on the sleeping around seeking for true comfort.
Yes, it is very nice that all these famous men come of their glass closets. Such actions inspire many souls in South Africa and in other states as well (Ghana, Afghanistan and Zimbabwe). However, now that Michael Jackson decided to take his little secret to the grave, let us all stand up in unity and help the last men standing gain confidence and pride in singing to and for their lovers of the same sex.
I can hear Ricky Martin already singing, Mi hombre y me golpeó toda la noche... While on the other hand Will Young cries, Él me ama y mi drama...
Who knows, maybe the rate of gay men committing suicide might decrease, and the world would be a very happy place. Of course, this process would entail serious counselling for the infamous homophobes like George Bush and Lulu Xingwana.
As for the closeted souls, we shall continue to compose songs and poems that might inspire all of you to step out of the closet. A closet is such a stuffy place to live in. Trust me, I know. I once lived there.
Happy read!
