All the supposed "bi" men I know turn out to be > gay. Is that enough of a debate???? On the contrary. My theory is that everyone is at least somewhat bisexual. No one is really straight. No one is 100% gay. Most people may gravitate to one gender over another most of the time. But there's always either a secret fantasy or a past affair or something. I'm bisexual. But ultimately, I want to be with a woman. I think. lol. matthew. if you place a thing in the center of your life that lacks the power to nourish, it will eventually poison everything that you are and destroy you. as simple a thing as an idea or your perspective on your self or the world. no one can be the source of your contempt. it lies within. in the center. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2001 19:36:58 -0500 From: "mr zebra" Subject: re: NPR: Britney, etc... D'OH. I just had about a two page response typed up and accidentally deleted it. I'll regurgitate some of it. If you guys would actually pay attention to anything any of these artists say in interviews, articles, concerts, etc you would see that they work just as hard as anyone else in the industry. Just because you don't like the style of music they create doesn't make them any less important. And they all write a lot of their own material now. NSync wrote almost all of their new album and produced most of it. Britney is writing a lot on her new one. Not to say that their material is as deep as a lot of other artists, but you have to give credit where it is due. A lot of artists use studio writers and producers when the first start. Dido's first album was half written by studio people and her brother. Now she's writing and producing two songs for Britney's new one. Hell, the Beatles started out doing covers and things, but I don't hear you taking pot shots at their artistic worth. They grew and evolved artistically, just as these pop artists are doing. Lip Synching. None of them do it, that I know of. NSync doesn't for sure. Britney uses backing tracks, but she sings too, however soft it may be. Hell, Janet Jackson fucking lilp synchs, but everyone praises her as a fucking Icon. bah. Yes, Britney is covering I Love Rock & Roll on her new album. And she did Satisfaction on her last one. Rolling Stone called that one "brilliant." Britney is quite the rock fan and alleges her new album to be much more rock & roll than her past ones. How about we just let these artists evolve without taking potshots at them simply because they don't make the style of music we prefer. We all started out somewhere. My first album was Debbie Gibson's Out of the Blue. While my current tastes run more toward Tool and Faithless and such, I can respect that a lot of people get their start in music from pop acts. To each her own. matthew. if you place a thing in the center of your life that lacks the power to nourish, it will eventually poison everything that you are and destroy you. as simple a thing as an idea or your perspective on your self or the world. no one can be the source of your contempt. it lies within. in the center. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2001 20:50:02 EDT From: BluesyBear@aol.com Subject: npr:video REVIVES the popstar As far as their "writing" material....it all sounds like recycled mechanical crap.. plus...I DON'T KNOW about other states...but in NYC...i barely EVER hear "brit" and the gang on the radio....yet they are all number 1 on trl...

What I AM offended by is their constant need to WAVE IT IN MY FACE like it's some kind of badge of honor. And you have the balls to tell me to ignore it and not say anything? I'm sure you would not advise the people who undoubtedly would pop up and complain to ignore me if I constantly posted self-righteous defensive diatribes about how I'm heterosexual and proud to be that way, even though NOBODY has said anything bad about being heterosexual?

At least one of the above would be nice. She lacks talent because she's getting by on flashing her tits. She lacks talent because she has no real singing voice. She lacks talent because the songs she DOES choose, if it's actually her doing the choosing, lack any sort of punch or soul to them; they come of as a slickly engineered soundbyte designed to be the background music to a REAL activity. She lacks talent because the famous songs that she chooses to cover also turn out lackluster and completely bastardized. She lacks talent because she'll be like Tiffany; in ten years she'll be long forgotten, and if not, then I'm overestimating today's MTV-drones. Need I go on? And you don't need to know how to work a bulldozer to realize that someone who's swerving from side to side, running over innocent people, park benches, and housecats, is an inept bulldozer operator. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2001 23:30:25 EDT From: Prozackitty16@aol.com Subject: Re: npr:bisexuality doesn't exist!

But I don't think I'd compare Britney to Madonna/Michael, just yet. I would think maybe Christina Aguilera had a shot at being the next Madonna..she's definitely got the voice for it, and IMHO a much better body. And we all know that sex sells..that's pretty much the underlying principle of pop music :) I'd definitely sell out in a heartbeat, though.

It was only when private was not working that I sent out those letters....but either way, it was low class, I admit. Maybe I shouldnt have handled it that way, but I really wasnt too sure how to handle the ettiqute of bad trading. I certainly never meant to slander tom, and I appologize if anyone did or would take his name and/address and form a negative opinon. This was never a personal attack, and I am sorry if anyone took it as such. I thought I had made it obvious that I thought, other than this, that he is a great guy, and we were on really great terms, or at least I thought he was really cool... which was why I was perplexed all the more. This, if anything should have been nothing more than the looking for advice letter, that first letter, thas all. So yea, I am sorry Tom, My Bad, for publically outting you for being slow on a trade. I am sure, when you get the time, and are around the items, you'll send me off my copies, and that this was not intentional.

Her personal clothing and performance choices are her own and she does not choose them to make good impressions on kids. > She lacks talent because she doesn't write her own songs nor produce > her own material nor play her own instruments. She wrote several songs on her new album and one on her last one. Madonna didn't write most of the songs on her first couple albums. She is actually learning the guitar from her boyfriend, Justin of NSync. All the guys in NSync play instruments. Madonna just learned the guitar as well and played it on an appearance on Letterman, I believe, performing her song Don't Tell Me. > At least one of the above would be nice. She's got two. > She lacks talent because she's getting by on flashing her tits. I dunno about the rest of you, but I have yet to see Britney's breasts. She may flaunt her body (as anyone with such a fabulous one should), but she hardly gets by with it. Do you really think 12-year old girls buy her albums because she flashes her tits? > She lacks talent because she has no real singing voice. She may not flaunt it much, but Rolling Stone has praised it, as well as BT, while working with her in the studio. > She lacks talent because the songs she DOES choose, > if it's actually her doing the choosing, lack any sort of punch > or soul to them; While I agree with you for the most part about that, she does have a few gems (Born to Make You Happy, Stronger, Don't Let Me Be the Last to Know). > they come of as a slickly engineered soundbyte designed > to be the background music to a REAL activity. Most popular music is slickly engineered, including Poe's. > She lacks talent because the famous songs that she chooses > to cover also turn out lackluster and completely bastardized. Many critics disagree. Your opinion. > She lacks talent because she'll be like Tiffany; > in ten years she'll be long forgotten, Tiffany had one major hit, which was a cover. Britney has had 6 major hits and sold almost 20 million albums. Hardly comparable, no? Perhaps she's not the most relevant artist in the history of pop music, but she will hardly be tossed aside like a one-hit-wonder. > and if not, then I'm overestimating today's MTV-drones. Need I go on? Well, all of your "points" were just invalidated, perhaps you should. matthew. if you place a thing in the center of your life that lacks the power to nourish, it will eventually poison everything that you are and destroy you. as simple a thing as an idea or your perspective on your self or the world. no one can be the source of your contempt. it lies within. in the center. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2001 23:21:08 -0500 From: "Knight Arthur" Subject: NPR: bisexuality & ME (Yes, Another one here) Before I start: No, I am not bisexual(I am hetero) and yes, I am male. Now, plenty of the anti-bisexual/anti-topic posts here have had biased or just plain stupid points(synonyms in my book), but so have a fair amount of the pro-bisexuality comments. (No such thing as true bisexuality, saying that all the anti-bisexuality posts are from jealous males, that's pretty unfair. You're female, and it's great that you have no problem with that, but it doesn't automatically make you better than anyone else.) Now these are my personal opinions, and I'm fine with being attacked for them, just please don't find this so freaking important that you must hold a grudge against me. That's my two cents, although I'm sure noone could care less at this point.
