Gaga fans sometimes observe that her concerts are more queer positive than your annual Queer Pride Parade. She is actually creating queer safer spaces. She's doing it in such a fantastic way; that's the commonality she has with Ziggy Stardust because she's continuing that legacy. Pride events are huge events which not everyone feels comfortable going to. What Bowie and Gaga have achieved in the greater scheme is creating a sonic space for inclusion; a way to trust, to cooperate, to laugh with, and to share music with a complete stranger knowing that they hold no prejudice over who you are as a queer person. Queer is all encompassing; as a trans guy it can talk about both my sexuality and my gender. Cover Art Design by Tania Willems
