BBC announces that 'genderqueer' Sam Smith will headline BBC Proms.

 

Sam Smith

The BBC have announced that the musically mediocre pop star, Sam Smith, will headline this year's 2024 BBC Proms. Smith, describes himself as "non-binary" and "genderqueer," whatever that means. I believe 'non-binary', means he doesn't regard himself as male or female, but the name Sam, seems to give the game away and he's also biologically male.

However, I'm not sure what relevance somebody's sexual predilections have to do with the performing arts. We admire the artistic work of Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Benvenuto Cellini, not because of their sexual preferences, but because we regard them as artistic geniuses. That's what we judge them by.

It seems to me that Smith uses sexual and gender ambiguity as a way of marketing himself. The American rapper, singer and song writer, Azealia Banks, has said that Smith is "Leaning On" sexuality, to "Make Trash Music." She may be right, but I've only heard snippets of his performances and I'm not that impressed. It sounds like garbage to me, but each to their own.

Britain is increasingly beginning to resemble something out of a farce by Gilbert & Sullivan, a topsy-turvy world of disorder and confusion. I bet we're becoming the laughing stock of the world. No wonder children in Britain are growing up confused.

The education secretary (Keegan) who previously supported transgender lunacies say she has been on a journey,and now fully understands the immutability of sex and gender.
You would have thought that she may have noticed the differences between her mum and dad,or sought solice in a remedial class at school.
But no… it takes the whole of her adult life and to be elected to parliament, become eduction secretary responsible all children’s education before she noticed mens trousers have a zip in and women’s don’t.
And before you ask.. maybe sam smiths zip goes all the way round.
The only zip I want see from him is across his lips and firmly zipped closed.
Time to rename the “ wheel tapers and shutters club”……. Toot 🚂🤣
