"FOR THE MORNG GAYS": THE IMPORTANCE OF LGBTQ-OWNED F AS SOBER, QUEER SPAC

Iced ffee, you see, is gay culture [ed. Note: n nfirm] a piece published last October on the LGBTQ webse New Now Next, was noted that for the past two years on social media there’s been a steady flow of jok and mem about the gay muny’s affy for iced ffee. Acrdg to NNN, iced ffee is gay bee: portabily (cute cups), easy nsumptn (’s ld) and ctomizatn (you n pump full of sugar, or sugar-ee syp that is fely not givg you diabet).

The se pared to the stereotype of suburban moms and their nsumptn of pot grig; iced ffee is a gay ctch. While ’s hard the days to tly unrstand why anythg be a meme (this is wavg at the Babadook), there are a lot of portable, easily ctomizable thgs that e cute packagg that aren’t so closely aligned wh the gay muny.

Hijks, while havg a csh has certaly lead to gay people dog ridiculo thgs the past, the episo don’t que properly draw the le between iced ffee and gay culture at large.

But there uld be somethg the way that Jack signaled himself out as a gay man to his csh by his repeated orrs of Frappuccos. Ined, acrdg to former BuzzFeed wrer Sam Stryker, who once wrote a post for the se tled “This Post Will Only Make Sense If You're Gay And Love Iced Coffee, ” there’s a untercultural element to iced ffee’s populary wh the gays.

“Like, gays will do ridiculo thgs and there’s somethg so unterculture about drkg an iced ffee durg the wter. ” It’s also, he says, a sign of ristg homogenizatn. Essentially, iced ffee has bee a queer avatar, and a way for gay people to signpost themselv agast the uniformy of you’re straight, that might sound ridiculo, pecially an age which—while thgs are far om universally perfect—gay people n live their liv wh a fair amount of tonomy.

And rather than necsarily beg a sign of sexual difference, acrdg to Bengry, ’s “about challengg the opprsivens of genr norms and genr prentatn”’s not to say that any sort of gay dg no longer happens, jt that an aspect of —shieldg onelf om persecutn at a time where beg homosexual was illegal—is no longer as heavy a necsy untri like the Uned Stat. Perhaps then, as Stryker suggted, part of the gay muny -optg iced ffee stems om another kd of signpostg, one where s are a form of playful rebell fact, take a look back at the Gay Liberatn Front and you see a long tradn of playfulns as prott. “The Gay Liberatn Front would wear buttons that would explic say, 'I'm gay, ' or they would have language that explicly said that they were gay and intifyg as such, ” Bengry says.

“It uld be seen not jt as a to other people, but anyone who is lerate uld read the button and see that they were gay. K., gay people no longer need to exist the shadows; and wh the fight for gay marriage and the modifitn of queer culture, LGBTQ people are gog there’s still an element of vert behavr that occurs the queer muny, be sexual or, the se of social media, through the velopment of digal languag like mem and morn slang.

Iced ffee uld jt be an IRL maniftatn of this playful vert language, signalg to any fellow gays Starbucks that you’re one of them.

” This is probably transferrable to gay men’s idolizatn of female pop stars and, one uld argue, iced ffee. This shared sense of inty—be through products or pop songs—creat harmony and solidary the queer really, the reason iced ffee is gay is actually que simple. A number of people on Twter got touch wh me to suggt that part of the gay appeal is que lerally the straw you drk through.
