I beat that box like it stole something from me and had that crowd screaming my name.made $500.00 in tips that night too. So, I pulled off the button-down shirt, and got up there and did the damn thing wearing a wife-beater. I walked in there nervous and scared as all hell because of all the shit folks talked about gay men, but I decided that I would rather be a DJ than be scared of all of the gay men who were just overly excited to hear me play. I've played in Chicago, New York, San Francisco, New Orleans, Las Vegas, and other places in the US, Europe, and Japan. I'm a DJ and I specialize in Deep House and Disco, so by stereotype, guess what demographic patronizes the places where I spin? In fact, I've been in that music scene for more than 25 years. In fact, I got over that homophobic shit very early in my life. If you're down for your boy, then you're down for him, whether he's straight or gay. I'm quite comfortable associating with gay men.I have no issues regarding "being gay by association." Grown folks and true players don't give a damn about shit like that. Have lost good friendships because of it. I have both experienced and observed this many times. Another side effect of this paradigm is that it can cause hetero males to avoid association or emotional intimacy with gay males for fear of being labeled as gay also. I feel bad for you straight guys in that respect. As homosexuality has come out of the closet in our society (and I am completely thankful for such), and having been stigmatized for so long, in some ways it seems to have forced hetero male intimacy into that vacancy in said closet. I notice that back then, there was far more sharing and emotional intimacy between men. I also have read a bit of history here & there, which included correspondences between men from a century ago or longer. As a gay male I still try to take a completely objective view of non-sexual physical intimacy between guys.
