Rage gay

After June’s somewhat frustrating Pride Month campaigns, Queer Wrath Month is about expelling anger in a healthy way. When given the freedom to be outwardly angry and express their feelings, it can be a relieving feeling. Watered-down pride campaigns that last for exactly one month — not one day more, not one day less — appear to be superficial, performative and even hypocritical.

Things are starting to change, however, as more gay heroes have emerged over the past few years.

Beek's Books is an online collection of reviews of various types of comics (comic books, comix, and graphic novels). Waaaah! Just as love and hate go hand in hand, I think that rage and joy do as well. In 2018, London's premier fashion designer, Charles Jeffrey "Loverboy", in an interview with VOGUE credited THE VELVET RAGE for inspiring his Fall line of clothing.

Queer rage is an act of resistance, just as queer joy is.” 

Yeah, we’re fucking angry. They drive a car that looks like a gigantic penis.

Tracey Anne Duncan, a writer for Huffpost, writes about their experience with queer rage during Pride Month: “I’m so tired of prancing in parades to win acceptance into cis-het society that I skipped it this year.

The energy rage curates is powerful, but it can be directed to change.

And no, we're not just talking about Ace and Gary, the 'Ambiguously Gay Duo' from Saturday Night Live.

There are quite a number of gay superheroes in comic books, actually, but only a few are published by major companies like DC Comics or Marvel Comics; the other 'big publishers' are more likely to feature these characters as members of the supporting cast; for example, as a friend of the hero.

The Duo gives "SNL" a shot of the true gay humor it has always lacked -- despite the show's many tittering sketches over the years in which men have kissed men on the lips for hetero laughs."

Or are they just being coy? Being a part of the LGBTQ+ community has its positive moments, but the community’s history of being oppressed has caused a pattern of rage across its members. Most prominently, it can be channeled into change and revolution. However, there are other ways that anger can be turned into a positive emotion.

Any way for that rage to emerge from your body is better than it staying pent up inside. Queercore was an outlet for them to expel their anger through shocking visuals, explicit lyrics and sexual liberation.
