#mcr queer studies

[angstics]

exciting entry in the "what genre is mcr" debate. he said be a faggot!!!!! (blender 2005)

#mcr #mcr: 2005 #mcr queer studies

[stpansy]

there's actually a lot of insight to be drawn from frank calling himself "the faggot from mcr" and how that reveals his awareness of how he existed in the cultural consciousness at that time, especially on top of the observable gender/sexuality expression frank had displayed pre 2008/9--not even taking into account what happens if you consider the possibility he was, in that moment, voicing it from a place closer to honesty than irony, regardless of how he identifies--but at the same time it's like. buddy you're not the only one in that band everybody thinks is a fag

#mods asleep time to start posting ab frank's relation to queerness which is undeniable whether or not he's straightt #HE called himself a faggot HE kissed men so EYE can have these thoughts #anyway #it's just so interesting. such a revealing moment even though it's also shrouded in unclearness #frank iero #leathermouth #leathermouth frank #mcr queer studies #i'm referring to his masculinity when i say gender expression btw

[honeythispodcast]

hey maren and ej! i love your pod, and i was wondering what your thoughts are on 'everybody hates the eagles'! imo it's not talked about nearly enough – alongside foundations, it's one of the few recent showcases of mcr's songwriting, lyrics and music, so it's a really interesting study into the band's identity in 2022/23, i.e what their sound is like, what lyrical themes they are exploring, what's important and relevant to them post-reunion. there are some really interesting ideas covered in the lyrics, like folklore, gender fluidity and queerness, martyrdom, catholicism, americana etc etc. (and the song has been relevant to other podcast eps you've already done, like the gender episode and the 'her kinda boy and also her girl' line, and the episode about joan of arc and martyrdom, which reminded me of the lyric 'i'm gonna set myself on fire. nevermind, i want you to set me on fire') there's this twitter thread that went into some of the ideas covered in the last leg of the tour that i think could lead to a rlly interesting discussion! https://twitter.com/vacantaIIeyways/status/1672449008009367552?s=20

Hell yeah you pulled so many good things out of Eagles! We talk more about it at 38:00 in the new episode!

[gerardtweets]

i’m sure you guys have plans for future podcast episodes, but if at any point you’re going to talk about mcr fandom i wanted to recommend judith may fathallah’s book “emo: how fans defined a subculture”. it’s more about the broader emo culture than mcr specifically, but it does focus mostly on mcr/fob/panic and the queer+feminine fan culture surrounding those bands that made emo what we think of today. it’s definitely Academic and somewhat dense but it’s one of the most nuanced explorations of gender in 00s emo and online fan culture that i’ve ever read. i’m literally obsessed. it is my bible

Oh this sounds really great! I’d love to read more into academic studies of emo and see what other texts they’re pulling in. This also looks like it’s about digital media cultures which I haven’t read much about myself. I may read the intro today.

Maren and I do have plans for our next episode, but this definitely sounds like a great text to do a whole episode around

#asks #i haven’t really gotten into academic texts recently because grad school sucked a lot of the fun out of them for me #but this sounds like a good reentry point #honey this podcast

My #1 post of 2022

I love the energy and all and I don’t want to offend but as a Muslim girl i can tell you that it is literally haram to identify as anything other than your god given gender. Like I’m not trying to be rude and I’m glad that there a respectful supportive people out there but if you’re looking at the Quran and other islamic book you’ll find stories about how its considered haram. Accepting the islam religion means accepting everything and dedicating yourself to it you can’t just pick and choose.

omg my first anon hate hahaha

i know im not obligated to answer hate but im going to anyway bcuz of i have things to say (sparkle emoji) (im on pc and dont have the energy to find an emoji keyboard)

okay first of all nowhere did i say that I identify as Muslim. i get that it was ambiguous tho so its cool. to clarify,, I am personally not Muslim but I kind of have to act like one so I don't get kicked to the streets or some shit lol and maybe I'm a bit of a coward idkkk but anyways

I would be interested to know what other Islamic books ur talking about btw, but I'm pretty sure the quran doesn't mention being trans anywhere at all. in fact I'm pretty certain, I've read it multiple times with translation and commentary interpretations and anyway being trans wasn't really a 'known' thing back then? bcuz obviously patriarchy and gender roles n segregation blah blah was wayyyy more yk. shit I forgot the word. uhhh yk like prevalent?? ofc the quran does mention a shitton about gender roles,, so yk men r the breadwinners, women raise the kids and keep house and be good wives etc. and also remember the big important fact:: GENDER AND SEX R DIFFERENT THINGS!!! meaning technically u cant be 'born' a gender (omfg my keyboard hates me imagine a question mark here) ur born with certain genitals and society assigns u a gender based on that . sounds a bit fucked when u put it like that actually but anyway back when the quran was being revealed this wasn't a known thing cuz yk they didn't have studies on this stuff,, and yea ur probably gonna say 'but the quran came from allah and he knows everything' well the fact of the matter is he either forgot or smth idk I don't speak for God but trans people definitely exist that's a fact we know so yeah. oh I should come back to my point which was, even with the quran saying those things about what ur supposed to do based on whats in ur pants which is crazy outdated anyway it doesn't take gender ≠ sex into consideration either soo ye that's the most it could've said about being trans and that not very valid anymore rip and that's not even mentioning non-binary people

and anyway Islam is literally all about acceptance and respect and everything so idk it would probably be better if u didn't go around telling ppl they're 'literally haram' for being trans or gay or any typa queer bcuz its literally not our choice (insert question marks) believe me I would fucking love to be comfortable in my 'female' body but I cant no matter how much I try to force myself so I'm sorry dude. no one would choose to be stuck in a situation like this. personally, I believe Islam needs a super massive reformation. well not Islam exactly, but a lot of things said in the quran r outdated wildly now, while a lot of it will also always be relevant, eg. everyone being equal and yk give to the poor etc. i have absolutely nothing against Muslims (I have it against my family for being so forceful about religion - different thing) yall r super cool and ik being a Muslim girl isn't easy believe me, but genuinely seeing Muslim people around and yk, just existing in wider society outside of Islamic spaces makes me feel so proud of where I came from even if its not been the best experience. have u seen the show We are Lady Parts (question mark) its about an all female Muslim punk band and there's only six episodes I literally watched it all today but the message of it is what I'm trying to get to you. u don't have to be the perfect pious wife to be considered a 'good Muslim',, there are so many ways u can show faith. you don't have to be a big strong man who can handle all pain with ease while single-handedly providing for a family either.

anyways peace out that sure was a journey lol and I definitely have forgot some of the things I wanted to say but yea that's all don't forget to like and subscribe &lt;3

(colours r to make it easier to read for people with shorter attention spans,, they don't have any other significance)

#mcr #mcredit #mcrnashville #* #gerard way #gender tag #mcr queer studies

[stpansy]

i could write thousands of words about how the concept of coming out has become some sort of rigid litmus test of authenticity in the queer community itself over the years, something that both demonizes being closeted and implies that you must vocalize every facet of your identity in order to be taken seriously by your community. i could also write about how “don’t assume someone’s sexuality/gender” has eaten itself and once again become “everyone is straight/cis until proven otherwise” which has led right into (mostly gen z, but not only) queer people themselves ignoring and trampling and smothering the signs we have used amongst ourselves for generations to signal queerness without explicit labels, accusing these signs of being appropriation or queerbaiting with no exception. i could write about how we are living through a war on trans people, the most actively hostile and threatening period trans people have had to exist through for decades, and how coming out is not an option for some people, is actively dangerous, and to act like if a trans person doesn’t have their pronouns in their bio or loudly proclaim their transness to everyone they meet they are cis is playing a small but devastating part in that war. and this is a my chemical romance blog, so i could write about these topics in conjunction with this band. how celebrity can mean that your audience feels they are owed you coming out. how personal identity and specific labels are not owed to you no matter the public status of a person.

instead i will say this: mcr is a queer band and they want you to know it. we don't know the labels they use for themselves in private--if they use any at all, which gerard at least has stated before he doesn’t--but that doesn't matter. when gerard gets onstage in skirts and dresses, they are queer. when frank said "i'm the faggot from mcr" after years of kissing men* onstage he was right. mcr is queer, genderweird, trans, faggots, our kinda girls and our kinda boys. especially gerard, who has made it so clear that they’re not cis. and it's doing them a disservice to pretend they're not just because they haven't come out on instagram.

'maybe i'm autistic' wow a queer autistic mcr fan that's new (but rly i feel like that's most of us (like def me and several of my friends)??? idk i think it's just a thing ?????)

yeah i’m pretty sure there’s correlation between autistic self-expression (etc i can’t find the words currently. there is nuance i am missing) and self-analysis of own identity. i think there are studies? and mcr is (usually) a safe space for self-expression (it is very white but. it’s fairly good on the queer front) ummmm anyway yeah i agree i guess

#txt #asks #sorry i am struggling to answer for several reasons but mostly bc i do not know who u r and my brain initially took the message as mean… #which i figure you probably didn’t intend for that but. i am in the middle of feeling bad about exhibiting autistic self-soothing behaviour
