A List of Things Less Gay Than Beyoncé’s Renaissance.
4. The Drag Race All Stars 7 Finale
7. Rainbow Streets and Crosswalks
9. The City of San Francisco as It Exists Today
"No one is saying Beyoncé doesn't have troubling corporatist trappings, nor am I saying that 'Break My Soul' and Soul Cycle are mutually exclusive. I’m saying that when I went to the Castro in February, I saw a Soul Cycle building with a neon sign on it that read 'hope will never be silent' and three self-driving cars, all of which is significantly less gay than the jaw-dropping ballroom breakdown Bey delivers in the final minute and a half of 'Heated'."

I feel like my life would have been different if Beyoncé had been having sex with women in her songs back in like 2006. It's just a hunch.

If you play it out of the speakers in a Miata, pink glitter spontaneously shoots out of the exhaust

Woah 'Break My Soul' is just straight up 90s house music.
