A QUEER TAKE ON JAM FRAN’S ‘STRAIGHT JAM / GAY JAM’
"There is a b of overfocg on my sexualy, both by the straight prs and the gay prs ... why do they re?" * i'm gay james *
And recent years, two groups of people particular have bee creasgly fed-up wh (and creasgly hostile to) the celebry provotr: poets and gay men.
It should e as no surprise, then, that gay poets n get pecially riled about Fran’s play wh inty and “lerary manspreadg, ” to borrow a phrase om Purvi Shah’s piece for Vida on the Michael Derrick Hudson yellowface ntroversy. And yet Fran’s “queer public persona, ” as he scrib his latt poetry chapbook, Straight Jam / Gay Jam (Hansen Publishg Group), is meangfully distct om Hudson’s ce, as is om Rachel Dolezal’s, and om the cultural appropriatn of Katy Perry and Iggy Azaela—all of whom I’ve wnsed whe gay poets pare Fran to.
JAM FRAN SAYS HE'S 'A LTLE GAY'
* i'm gay james *
Do the succs of this public persona, then, of which his intifitn as a poet is most certaly a part (see: his affy for gay poets Frank Bidart, Allen Gsberg and Hart Crane), pend on the tails of Fran’s private life?
JAM RANDI: “I’M GAY.”
Jam Fran Addrs His Sexualy: ‘I’m Gay In My Art & Straight In My Life’ Jam Fran giv a sexy stare on the ver of FourTwoNe magaze's latt issue. In the magaze, the 36-year-old actor terviewed himself and is reprented… * i'm gay james *
From this poem on, which the speaker intifi himself as a “sister clown, / Wh a se pated / So thick / I looked mad-happy, always, ” Straight Jam / Gay Jam ncerns self primarily wh problems of persona. Fran don’t want to fuck Lana Del Rey so much as to be her—not unlike the relatnship to women he characteriz “Hello Woman, ” and not, as happens, unlike many gay men’s relatnship to Del Rey.
Intertgly, when Del Rey’s mic vio for “Summertime Sadns” told the story of a lbian affair spe the sger’s ostensible heterosexualy, no one acced her of gay-bag. In his tle poem, which tak the form of an terview between Straight Jam (SJ) and Gay Jam (GJ), and is one of the most engagg the llectn, Fran do fally rpond to the accatns he himself fac, settlg once and for all the qutn of whether he’s gay the most leral sense (not really). Let’s get substantial: are you fuckg gay or what?
GJ: Well, I like to thk I’m gay my art and straight my life.
JAM FRAN ADDRS HIS SEXUALY: 'I'M GAY IN MY ART & STRAIGHT IN MY LIFE'
Based on the fascatg, te-life story of Michael Glatze (Jam Fran), a gay activist who be an anti-gay Christian pastor. * i'm gay james *
Although, I’m also gay my life up to the pot of terurse, and then you uld say I’m straight. So I gus pends on how you fe gay. Gay Jam go on to make the valid, if non-revelatory pot about how sex acts were not, historilly, unrstood as the basis of sexual inty, and Straight Jam later adms, “Sh, I’d love to fuck you, ” to his alter-ego, but the takeaway is clear: Fran is terted—scerely— the trappgs of gay inty, and not terted participatg gay sex.
(“I was not the one who pulled my public persona to the gay world; that was the straight gossip prs and the gay prs speculatg about me, ” Fran remds his self-terview. The rapid cultural sea-change on gay rights and the sudn (if limed) regnn of trans narrativ means that there has never before been so many queer mols accsible the mastream, even as the ins of mastream acceptance (marriage equaly, Calyn Jenner) paradoxilly ero queer difference.

This might be key to the problem that persists Fran’s claim to queerns, and what about that rankl so many gay men: a lack of perspective. What do you say to people who cricize you for appropriatg gay culture for your work?
So do Jam Fran have anythg telligent to say about beg gay?
” And while Fran might not yet have mastered the difference, he’s a straight man 2016 whose entire project pends on the assumptn that beg gay would be ls borg.

” Notg that Fran has said he’s “gay my art and straight my life, ” the terviewer asks Fran to expla whether he’s not also gay his life, potg out that some gay men have lled him “kd of a gay c—k tease. There is a b of overfocg on my sexualy, both by the straight prs and the gay prs, and so the first qutn is why do they re? But if your fn of gay and straight is who I sleep wh, then I gus you uld say I’m a gay c—k tease.
Yeah, I’m a ltle gay, and there’s a gay Jam. Dpe intifyg as straight, Fran's put a great al of energy to gay-themed projects like Interr.
