Hey, everybody, a recently retired English teacher is now speaking atcha. Nice discussion, guys. 6 years ago or thereabouts a lesbian group, Disappear Fear, cranked out a six minute blockbuster song: "Who's so Scared" based on a (not really a classic) poem by Harlem Renaissance poet, Countee Cullen, "Incident in Baltimore." This Disappear Fear song is one of the strongest pop statements I know of for gender tolerance (or is it tolerence?), Song is on Disappear Fear's eponymously titled CD.
