Homophobia - Yesterday, 02:08
Replies 43, views 589,
These stats represent discrimination.
It seems pretty obvious to me that the users of this forum are more interested in gay sex than music.
(Although many of the commentators appear not to understand the meaning of the word homophobia)
As a disabled musician and composer who has experimented with new musics, and recorded with top players from the area, I find it very disheartening.
The constant rejection and ignorance displayed by those whom I once considered my contemporaries is almost too much to bear.
As an artist, I realise that one puts ones self on the line in ofering work to an audience, but this audience chooses to mute.
Why is this?
Is it my disability? Is that a discrimination?
Is it because I play synth? My disability prevents me from playing guitar.
Is it because I slagged the sponsor? I still maintain the sponsor should be seen, but should refrain from direct comment.
Is it because I refuse to put my work on "MySpace"?
Or is it as I am often made to feel an outsider, and not in a scene or clique, ???
Well, I certainly wouldnt/couldnt force any one to listen to anything that I ever made or said, I'm not that vain, but really, some people here need to open their minds.
As I said in another thread to about 3/4 people, thanks again for your support,
