He says the industry consistently censors anything sexual written by a queer artist. The response were typical: The Grammy-winning artist was accused of pushing the gay agenda.

What was actually damaging was the gratuitous heterosexuality that had been shoved down my throat my whole life - the Abercrombie bags, the Victoria's Secret ads, the suburban parents I met who seemed to all hate each other viciously but stayed together inexplicably.Lil Nas X laid it all out on stage at the BET Awards on Sunday with a royal rendition of “Montero”, sealed with a kiss. (Never mind the fact that Pride wouldn't be Pride without the activism of leather communities.) Aside from those notions being grounded in literal right-wing homophobic talking points, they also fail to take into account experiences like mine, which I know are not uncommon. Even among LGBTQ+ circles, it's become a somewhat popular assertion that all displays of public sexuality are inherently harmful to children, or that they're secretly rooted in pedophilia - take the never-ending "kink at Pride" discourse, for example, which asserts that public displays of alternative sexuality are somehow harmful to minors who might be attending pride celebrations. That's why I find the current strain of gay sexual conservatism among my fellow Gen Z'ers so alienating.
