This article is about Adam Lambert's performance at the American Music Awards in November. Appararently his performance was very graphic, including him kissing one of his male dancers and simulating oral sex on stage. This immediately became a controversial topic and Lambert's invitation to sing on "Good Morning America" was rescinded. According to him, his performance was no worse than what most women do on stage for their performances such as Lady Gaga or Britney Spears. Most of their vulgar actions go unacknowlegded and unpunished. The only reason his performance became such an issue was because it was a gay man doing it. It is very unusual to see gay actions on television nowadays because it is such a heated issue. "But while gay sexuality is discussed and joked about plenty, rarely are the gay characters shown having sex or kissing passionately." This is another example of the silence gays are forced to adhere to in order to fit into the standards of society. If parents are arguing that they don't want their children witnessing sexuality on television then they shouldn't let their kids watch tv at all. Sexuality is everywhere on television, even in kids shows there are always subtle hints to it. People are not comfortable with gay openness at all. Some people still believe that that it is offensive and should not even exist. People were not offended by Lambert's performance because it was graphic. They were appalled by how open he was about being gay on stage. This is not only discriminating against gays but it is also a sexist issue. In my opinion, everything about this controversy was hipocritical.
