guys and glitter??
Bijan
i was just wondering. how many guys out here use glitter (when raving?).
whenever i do, the first reaction i get is, "are you gay?"...this coming from
fellow ravers! anyone else get this?? most ravers out here are the
mafia-looking type instead of candy ravers, etc. then again, i live out in
southern cal (right around los angeles)

party must be. my suggestion to you is this: throw all of your glitter out and
never look back upon it. raves are not about glitter, they are about dancing...
glitter is for beautiful raving females.. it enhances their skin and their facial
features... it shouldn't enhance male features... what happens if some guy who's
not gay sees you and gets turned on by it? huh? HUH?!?! THEN WHAT!!! it's just
not fair... i say let go of your glitter and prepare to enter a better world.. a
new world... a world where women dance with glitter in provocative ways... an
anti male glitter wearing world... my perfect world.

occassionally wear glitter... it depends on what outfit I am wearing... just
because I wear glitter and make up doesn't mean that I'm gay... it means
that you now are a bigot because in one of your last posts you were talking
about another person making stereotypes... by this post it shows me several
things... 1) you are a bigot 2) your are also stereotypical and 3) you are
homophobic.....

i'm in FL, and i never see guys wearing glitter... well, unless they're gay..
and yeah, i can say i'd probably assume someone was if they were wearing it,
but that doesn't matter... i've been wrong about people's sexual orientation
many times!! ...especially in the rave scene, u never know. so if it bothers
you that people ask, ya know..don't wear it... but it doesn't seem to bother
you, and that's cool...
i love glitter :D

and about having fun! weather it be with or without glitter. most of my raver
friends agree with me that most ravers don't really have to 'prove' anything
to anyone, and having to prove their masculinity and 'machoness' towards other
guys, instead of the mentality of others.

I often wear sparkles -- got this stuff that's like dust (very VERY fine)..
a little dab'll do ya. I know lots of guys who wear sparkles. Some of them
are gay. Some of them aren't. I've been asked if I am gay. I'm not. I
usually change the subject and make them wonder rather than take all the fun
out of it. Call me a closet hetero.

*hugs* to all you glitter guys out there!
glitter is thee best...
tis magic faerie dust.
keep it up!
those who associate that with being gay should take a course in creative
expression and examine their OWN outlook on THEMSELVES if they care so
much about some guy wearing glitter.
it's cool.
so there.

These tyeps would be part of the "guido" stereotype that candy ravers
have for Latin/Italian club types who dont dress the rave part. There
are not as numerous at most raves since they usually are more into
chicks than raving so they get turned off to raves very easily. Those
that do get into raving then start dressing down since it gets pretty
damn hot dancing for hours in a suit. I should know since I'm a guido.
I wasnt aware however that guidos were showing up in great numbers to
some rave events. Wow! Would you say that these particular raves are
a little more sexual than the asexual atmosphere that rave events
usually have (girls in baggy pants, underaged GIRLS running around, sex
drive killer ecstacy abound, trance msuic with no physical sexual
overtones). Now you got me curious.
Or maybe people were dressed up when they normally wouldve have been
beacuse it was New Years Eve.

>Or maybe people were dressed up when they normally wouldve have been

Nope, there are tons (at least to (practically) all the raves I've been too).
It's true, I don't think thy're interested in the rave itself...more like the
hoochie's there =)....The last one I was to (that wasn't raided =\) was in
very late December. It was FREEZING - yet almost 90% of the girls were wearing
skirts so short, they didn't even have to bend over till you could see their
panties, and there must have been at least 3lbs of flesh per person hanging
out of their shirt!
.oOo.groovinkim.oOo.
to me is wearing glitter, an afro, tight pants, big pants,
no pants, a dress, body paint, suits and ties, khaki pants,
a uniform, whatever. i don't care if they are gay, straight,
bi, transsexual, hemaphrodite. i don't care if they are
young, old, black, white, hispanic, native american, asian,
etc.
anyone who gives a shit about things like that needs
to open their ears and listen to the *music*. that is what
brings us together. it is not a fashion show. it is not a
status contest. it is not a place to be judging others on
superficial things that have no bearing on who they are
as a person.
dance, dammit.

p.s. glitter doesn't have anything to do with your
sexual preference. whoever said that has got
some mental hang-ups and probably some sexuality
issues of their own.

that. But, am I not entitled to my opinion? It seems to me like many people
agreed that one could assume a guy wearing glitter to be gay/bi.. And if you
read my post I said "most likely" This means that they don't HAVE to be gay/bi
just because they were wearing glitter! You don't need to lash out at me
because of the nature of Anthrow's post.. And I resent being called a

to something you assume. If I was bi/gay would it be wrong of me to assume that
someone else was bi/gay? It doesn't hurt to assume.. Just because you hold an
opinion (assumption.. I might even say guess) Doesn't mean you are an ASS! You
would be an ass not to assume things.. As a matter of fact, without assumption
I think I would get myself into some sticky situations.. And IF I assumed
someone wearing glitter to be bi/gay would it be a bad thing? It COULD be a bad
thing if I used that assumption in the wrong way.. Other than that it makes no
difference.. I wouldn't treat you differently if you were straight/bi/gay or
otherwise.. And I still think that glitter is for females.. but I wouldn't care
if I saw a male wearing it.. I just choose not to wear it myself.. But here is

I've never been out to a rave (Hullabaloo on the 6th will be my
first!!!!)
but I _do_ wear stars and sparkles and stuff when I go out clubbing.
I'll be
at Hullabaloo in a pair of pink fun fur pants and I'll even wear glitter
if
I can find some more!!
During new years I was handing out stars to like,

it's possible that glitter has developed into a 'signal' that says
'i'm gay' ... remember the thing in the early to mid 80's where if a
man had (i think it was) his left ear pierced it was a sign that he
was gay (what better way to balance out 1) being able to meet other
gay men outside of a 'gay bar' versus 2) a very real bigotry and
endangerment of physical health that exists in the states against
homo's ... a 'secret' signal? i think it's a bright idea)
anyways stereotyping does not necassarily equal dislike or phobia
no negative opinions were expressed by cyber toast ... he simply
mentioned a qualifier that marks a gay man in his opinion ... i
wouldn't worry about that too much
the problem that i see is ... pretty soon the 'secret marker' becomes
fashion and it dosen't serve as an identifier anymore ... perhaps (the
original guy) is on the cutting edge of that transition from marker to
fashion
or perhaps i'm full of shit ... either way it's alright by me :)

i think that the next time you're partying hard you should throw on
some glitter and enjoy the sparkles ... they're really fun to watch
specially under a good light show ... if you've got an alright body
it'll be fun to watch them on you too ... what better way to catch the
eye of a possible new sweetie than to stand out a bit as a guy who's
into having fun? we all know that raver chicks are some of the
hottest and sweetest girls around, totally approachable and totally
adventurous <drool>

I've been known to wear glitter...often in fact.... but I dont
think anyone has ever mistaken me for being gay....at least no one has
ever mentioned it to me.....
I *CAN* wear glitter, and get away with it.... Ugly Lizard told me
I could ;)

I was wondering about this.... I never felt that Raves were solely
about dancing.... I agree thats the majority I'm sure but still.
I dont dance much...I do like to get in the groove, and I *LOVE*
the music, wether I'm rushing or not its all about the mood and spirit.
Dancing or not, with or without glitter.... its all in the

Great response, Kim. I agree with ya full. BUT NO PANTS??? Heehee come on
now, if someone was shakin' thier booty right next to ya, you can't tell me
that it wouldn't get some sort of reaction. Even something like sayin "Nice

over... i'm not saying this to be an asshole but if everybody just accepts
everything without thinking about it you'll be down shit's creek before you
know it. Ass for mr. i wana call people homophobes, piss off. he has the
right to say what ever he wants... he never called any body anything, but you
have turned around to spread hate. I won't tell you whether i like or hate
gays now because i don't think it's ANY of YOUR business. So call me a
homophobic to if you like you may be right or wrong. i'm not gona say.

he's a homophobe.... all he said is that glitters for girls. In his mind it
is... who cares? It's glitter... nothing more. He could have said dresses are
for girls and you still would have jumped on him. Some of you people try to

definitions... a humanitarian is probably what you are thinking of... the
only reason you think I'm a self-centered bastard is because I present to
look after myself before all others... the way I see it fuck everyone
else... until a person has earned my utmost trust I won't stick my neck out
for anyone... and in this day and age you cannot trust anyone
anymore...trust has to be earned... it's not automatically given like so
many people stupidly do only to find out that they just had the large end of
the baseball bat shoved up their ass... if you can't look after yourself how
do you expect to look after others? which is why I come first...

being open-minded does not equal "accepting everything without
thinking about it." they are in no way related.

Oh my sweet raver kidz,
we have been TRICKED! This is such a classic troll!
Some person has jumped on to natoriuously accepting group and said
something that many of us would probably take offense to (i.e. "Glitter is
for girls.") and has sat back while we all chew up our bandwidth and time
with all the craziness that came from such a silly statement.
Seriously, we have gone from someone's fashion opinions to a
debate on our acceptance of homosexulaity. I mean that is great that so
many people jumped out and said that we can't trap people in gender roles,
and that simple things like dictating dress codes is just another layer of
social opression. It is GREAT that so many people jumped out to support
our gay/bi/straight/trans/etc sisters, and brothers, and other family
membrs :-)
But let us not get ugly about it. BTW, I think KIM ROCKS!!! I
think all you ravers rock! I wear my glitter and have never gotten shit
for it. I have come as everything from a tinfoil robot, adidas b-boy, to a
glow in the dark fairy with wings. I never get anything but compliments. I
know that there can be mean people. But I don't see how an open mind can
ever bring anything but more oppertunities.
Let's not get bogged down in this troll. Remember our commitment
to PLUR! Remember that the R means respect for everyone--even those that
we disagree with :-)
I love you all,
Lucas the Luvbug!
