She has the stage and media attention and she's trying to do good. And that's good enough.

i'm shocked yet in keeping with danger it has to do along with her very own media image? I propose she isn't with the help of any skill traditionalist in her promoting and marketing and creativity. I consistently chanced on her so a techniques as pop stars circulate to be quite masculine and she or he isn't afraid with the help of any skill of appearing 'unfeminine'. in keeping with danger she in simple terms knows lots of the rhetoric of a few of Feminism's parent heads and properly disassociated? i do no longer care approximately those that say all feminists are different because of the fact in fact once you do no longer distinguish your ideals to the nth degree, with outstanding precision, then you definately are in simple terms passively condoning what's misguided. All it takes for evil to flourish is for stable adult males and girls folk to do no longer something. while human beings say 'i'm a feminist' and define it for themselves, it would not artwork, in any respect. What approximately what Greer has pronounced, Dworkin, Mckinnon, SCUM? What approximately those maximum infamous parent heads? you're no longer a feminist, you in simple terms perception in equivalent pay for equivalent artwork, equivalent rights for adult males and girls folk. Feminism is a lot extra abstruse then that i'm afraid honey (i could say). besides, i think of woman Gaga is attempting to deflect unfavourable interest. i understand at one factor everyone theory she exchange into quite a guy so in keeping with danger she needs to cut up from such liberalism to benefit a much better purpose industry?

Considering that AIDS in women is not a problem, yes she is doing way more harm than good. In the West, AIDS is and always has been "the gay man's disease," so spreading lies doesn't help anyone but the power elite with their evil agenda.

As far as furthering the Feminist agenda-- being the vanguard of the homosexual lobby-- of forcing homosexuality down everyone's throat, she's great for doing that. Should she be? That's a moot point, since Feminism is an abomination, like any other supremacist hate group, and should not be allowed to exist.

Feminism isn't an exclusive club. Lady Gaga can talk about any issue she feels strongly about.

She has made being bisexual for girls fashionable. This has resulted in men using these so called "Bisexual" girls for 3 somes and them dumping them. Most men only see bi's as sex objects and would not marry one.

I think she is a great entertainer and pretty talented. Beyond that, I don't care what she thinks. Same for Madonna, Sting, Brangelina, Bono and all the other entertainers who think they will change the world.
These entertainers should stick to the singing and dancing, and I will decide for myself in the real issues, thanks all the same.

She's a good example of how hermaphradites can be accepted.
She also does good fur work with that ugly polar bear thing in her video. Plus I like her dance in that video.
There is no feminist issue involved, because feminists have pretty much run out of issues. Get real.
EDIT: Blue Eyed Christian didn't slander anyone. Saying that she did is libel.

Define *icon*
Define *feminist*
What does a pop star's opinion on gay issues have to do with equal rights for the female gender and why is she relevant?
BTW it should be generally held by everyone that all humans deserve equal rights. It's standard vocab for anyone with half a brain so she is simply talking sense.
Nothing iconic about speaking out about all human beings being equal and against abuse. It's just normal.
EDIT:
High fives Blonde Limbo. At last people are seeing it for it really is.

Negative, because she is silly, untalented, and ridicules, no one takes her seriously, or respects her, so no, she is only slowing the progress down for women and taking feminist back a few hundred years!
