Is the name "Freddie Mercury" a buzz phrase for gay men?

Not at all. He was a talented singer in a helluva band. AND he happened to be gay. Gary Glitter though thats another matter.

Sure Freddie Mercury was a better singer. But just as people give Nirvana shitloads of (undeserved) credit for being influential, the same can be done for Elvis. Musically, he may be overrated, but he was a great performer and there is no denying the influence he had on music at the time and continues to have even now.

At one time before the body art boom, it meant you were gay.  It was a signal from one homosexual to another.  These days it's as meaningless as saying 10-4 good buddy to a trucker.

I interviewed him for a gay magazine when he was promoting 'Jeffrey' - a film where he plays a gay character. He's very straight and actually really, really cool. \nHe's originally from  West Yorkshire and I'm from East Lancashire so we got on like a house on fire. My gaydar didn't even register a blip from him and if he was gay he'd most definitely be open about it. \nI'd go for a Patrick Stewart lookalike if I were you!

Apparently it was first used in the 1938 film, "Bringing Up Baby":\nBringing Up Baby (1938) was the first film to use the word gay in reference to homosexuality. In a scene where Cary Grant's clothes have been sent to the cleaners, he must wear a lady's feathery robe. When another character inquires about his clothes, he responds "Because I just went gay...all of a sudden!"

Nah.  After Freddie Mercury died it just isn't the same.

All English people are gay. Have you ever heard them talk?

In a shape of a crown? Symbolising a queen? Or you could just make them in the shape or whatever his favourite things are! I mean is he a "queen" sort of gay or just a normal guy. I'm not saying he isn't normal I'm just trying to express myself in the best way possible on here. Because if he is not so "camp" he may not like it in an obviously gay theme. As it is a surprise you obviously can't check, but I'm sure you have good judgement.\nYou could use some sort of queen or royalty thing as a play on words. I think it is hard to tell you exactly as I do not know the person in question or your ideas. Good luck with the party :) x

birdman,\nI think that one of the most influencial Gay people in all the annals of history is . . . . King James (Prince James) who was responsible for the translation of the King James Bible. He was about as Gay as anyone could be. \n\nIt's not like there weren't any bibles before that, there were. The Great Bible was the main bible of the time, but the King James became more used sometime after that. \n\nBut look at it's influence upon so many people, for so many years. I have no doubt that King James was a saved man, though Gay, and could quote verses and argue effectively with the clergy of the day. He would look forward to the chances that he got to do so.\n\nStrangely enough, those that are most strict with their condemnation of Gays, use the King James Bible, while saying proudly that they use the "inerrant word of God" the King James 1611 version. \n\nAnd they don't.\n\nNo. The 1611 King James Bible had the Apocrypha in it. The Puritans decided that it should not be in there, and so it was taken out.\n\nSo the Fundies that condemn Gays are:\n1) Wrong about the Bible.\n2) Wrong about condemning Gays, rather than presenting the Gospel to them\n3) Are using a Bible that was funded lovingly by a Gay \nking.\n\nI call that VERY influential!

Yes, the song is definitely homosexual.  The group is famously gay and is singing about a guy having oral sex with another guy.  Can't get more homosexual than that.  The song lyrics are simple and to the point.  So to speak :o)

Nope. He's been married, has a daughter, recently been an item with Kate Moss...\n\nHe had a kissing scene with another man in "Infamous" and apparently a bunch of gays mobbed him at some event (because of rumours stemming from that particular role), but there's no real life indications that he's anything but straight.

A gay guy at work seemed to think so.  He called it "GAYDAR".  :-)

no he is definitely not gay he went out with Kelly Osbourne and before that he had a long time girlfriend Kate who tragically had a drug overdose on the 4th of July in 2004 while pregnant with his baby. the whole thing with Gerald from mcr i think was just a publicity stunt but they have been long time friends.

I in no way have anything against gay men, but I do say that flamboyant, effeminate men don't sit well with me, and the whole flamboyant trend is really wearing thin. Now everything is 'fabulous', and it's pretty annoying. No offense to anyone, but that's how I feel.
