Every so often I listen to Lady Gaga. I really like a few of her earlier songs but haven't listened to most of her discography.
I hate that music and gender are somehow connected, but unfortunately that's the world we live in. Anyone who gives me crap for listening to/doing/etc. "girly" things is a person I don't want in my life.
Unfortunately I have experienced this quite a lot. I was even shamed for wearing the color pink, and that was a shirt for males specifically and they still thought it was "girly". Also, I was a brony at one point (not anymore), yep, you can guess what happened.
