Pete Wentz spoke with Out magazine and again talked about kissing guys and appropriating queer culture.
“When I said that I make out with dudes, there was a slight sense of sexual rebellion in that. I probably even made it a bigger deal than it was.”
Oh, you make out with dudes. How alternative and progressive. You are soooo coool.
He readily cops to having appropriated queer culture, just as early white rock and roll artists ripped off black music and went mainstream. “If I was gay,” he says, “and I saw people playing with it, being ambiguous, I don’t really know how I would feel. I look back at Elvis and I’m like, Was Elvis a dick?”
Pete needs to get over himself. He’s not some cultural icon for acceptance. Sticking his tongue down a guy’s throat isn’t going to change the world. It’ll only make people question his marriage to Ashlee Simpson. Does she have a penis or what?
Out, the magazine working to undermine gay people. You not only put a straight person on the cover for the trillionth time and have that person tell what gay people are you also put a dergatory word for gay people on the cover. The message to gay people is straight people are the deciders of everything and are more valuable than you.
