Gay was a word your mom would whisper, even when there was no one else around, lt ga too much populary. No mastream media touched the topic the midneti, maybe due to the sual homophobia permeatg all media, maybe due to the lack of queers wrg about mic 1995. Green Day bassist Mike Dirnt has showed his love for the LGBTQ muny by postg a gay pri photo on his social media after lnchg a fan art ntt.

Until the release of his tobgraphy 2013, Morrissey had never officially e out as gay or bisexual, though he's been dancg around the subject sce the very begng of his reer. He wrote the lyrics to the Smhs' send sgle "This Charmg Man" as a reactn to his distaste for mastream gay culture at the time, tellg the story of one man quatly attemptg to sce another.
