All but the wealthy ele uld be jailed or even killed for homosexualy. Even the pirate world, homosexualy wasn’t que accepted as the norm.

COSMO JARVIS - GAY PIRAT

In terms of exactly how mon same-sex romance was among pirat, historians today generally believe that rat of homosexualy likely mirrored what would have been found the populatn at large. Cosmo Jarvis The past twelve months have seen que a few gay-clive and gay-themed vios om artists rangg om Lady Gaga to P!

But ’s probably safe to say we haven’t seen anythg like “Gay Pirat” om UK sger Cosmo only is the subject matter of "Gay Pirat" wildly different om any of the songs om the above artists, but Jarvis also plays the part of the gay pirate his own vio. S., most Amerins are probably unfaiar wh him spe the fact that he has ma somethg of a splash the UK where he has already generated a fair b of buzz as a might be about to change wh the release of the vio for “Gay Pirat” as not only have a number of U. AfterElton talked wh Jarvis about how a straight guy me up wh the ia for the song, his tratn wh gay stereotyp and much more.

GAYPIRAT STORI

AfterElton: How did you e up wh the ia of wrg a song about gay pirat? Cosmo Jarvis: You know the stereotype of pirat — the gff dus who n take anythg, they live on maggot-fted biscus the middle of the sea, they whip each other, they’re really tough if one ten guys today is gay, then one ten guys back then mt have been gay, so I was jt thkg there mt have been gay pirat, although pirat were very tolerant toward homosexuals for the most part.

But if you did end up on a boat the middle of the ocean and you n’t n anywhere and everybody is totally agast the ia of you havg a partner on the boat, I felt that was the worst thg that uld happen to somebody who was gay.

CJ: The way that men are perceived to go about attag what they need to atta is somethg that a lot of people here don’t thk gay men are pable of. And that’s why there is the whole “gay men are wimpy thg” gog on.

People are always thkg that all gay men are more feme and I was jt thkg, like, all is jt the way a straight guy would look at a woman and all the thgs that would go wh that and how they would do anythg to save that woman if anythg bad was gog to happen to her if they loved her.

They jt don’t bother thkg about what might be gog on the head of a gay the mic is prented the way is so if ’s played a bar and there is somebody the bar who lik the mic and gets to bee ’s a sea shanty and you n get people stompg around.

The ia was that people the dience might be the people who thk like that [that beg gay is bad] and might get to the mic before they get to the story of the song so that before they know they are dancg around and they are beg enthiastic about the song and then when they realize what ’s about, they have no exce not to ntue dancg wh the same I love that ia.
