      Is this really any different from the New Romantics of the early 1980s (for example)?https://twitter.com/stonewalluk/status/1150329084695797760 …

      The difference is that the New Romantics knew they were just dressing up. Same with Bowie in the Seventies, and Glam Rock, and right back to the Dandies a century earlier.

      Maybe. But Boy George & Marilyn, for example, were certainly not (initially) forthcoming about their gender, etc. Also, the language of binary/non-binary wasn't available to them. If it had been...

      Boy George and Marilyn have always been clear they are make; Annie Lennox has always been female. Many artists hid their sexuality but they didn’t deny their sex.

      I could be misremembering, but my recollection is that when Boy George first arrived on the scene there was speculation about his sex, which he wasn't in a hurry to clear up. It was only when he began to get big interviews he made it clear.

      He was well known on the club scene in the UK. I don’t recall his sex ever being a mystery.

      Partly because the UK is so small, I think the relationship between fans and performers has always been more intimate than the US. You can get from one end of the country to the other in a matter of hours.

      I grew up in London in the late-1970s/early-1980s, but different sort of music. Prog rock & then prog rock revival. So missed out on a lot of the popular culture stuff.

      I was a punk then a goth in the Eighties. There were still a few teddy boys around then, and skinheads used to hang around reggae clubs with their Black friends.

      Ha! Remember the Tim Roth character in Made In Britain (the film), with his black mate? I was attacked by a bunch of skinheads in Liverpool Street Station because I'd been on an Anti-Nazi League thing, and they were waiting targeting naive fools like what I was! 😂😂😂

          This is England wasn’t far off. I was more punk at the time we’d usually end up in a largely Black club because it was open till about 4am. Plenty of skins. Not that some weren’t openly racist; more towards Asians though.

          Fights between punks and skins only happened outside the club. Nobody wanted to be barred from the only club open in miles.

          History tends to divide the groups into easy categories. I didn’t change from punk to goth, I just started wearing darker clothes. I still listened to Souxie and the Banshees. Punk and skins overlapped too. Everyone wore Doc Martens.
