What are your thoughts on the Monkee Bois situation?

genuinely how hard is it to not talk to children??? oh my god

I didn’t even know there was an active glam metal community past the year 1991

the way they go right into duck faces in between denying allegations 😂

Them trying to mog in their video statement is fucking sending me

Theme so serious the black lipstick disappeared😰

A 19 year old guitarist in a local glam metal band in my area was caught grooming and drugging 13 year old girls. Thankfully the band is defunct now but as far as I know the guitarist hasn’t faced any charges

That’s not the only subgenre with a MINOR problem *cough death core *cough

glam “metal” has always been superficially “progressive”. the makeup, the hair, the clothes. but when you look closer it perpetuates the exact same misogyny that’s apart of the status quo. it looks like it subverts the status quo, but does not.

As a lady from the 80s it was very very NOT Uncommon for us female identifying people to Accept being groomed by " rockstars" It was darn near glorified , I thought back then it was "Normal" to be a 13 year old  girl and stand outside a bus WAITING for a 25+ -30+ year old man  to " PICK ME " of course i grew older then looked back and now im deeply afraid of that past and deeply afraid for others .  “You’re sweet, but you’re just four feet .. And you still got your baby teeth --You’re too young, and I’m too well hung ..But tonight I’m gonna rock ya.” -Spinal Tap ( Tonight I’m Gonna Rock You Tonight’)

That comment about 12 year olds made me feel physically ill. That deserves death. No trial.

Men who only sing about sexualizing women in the most explicit way. Who would've ever thought they'd be creeps?

That bit about him saying, “it’s just a cat” is 100% relevant. It just proves he has zero capacity to empathize with his victims, he’s in it for his own selfish reasons, and he couldn’t really give a fuck what happens to them as long as they keep complying with his predatory requests. He didn’t even try to pretend to care. Anybody who tries to claim that that’s a “nitpick” isn’t using their brain fully.

This still reminds me of when MGK was speaking predatorily about Kendall Jenner when she was underage and he tried to justify it by the example of Axl Rose being predatory too..

I find it dumb that anyone would call Glam Metal gay,   gay was the last thing those bands were thinking about.

im so out of the loop i didnt even know Gen Z was doing Glam, I am flabbergasted

Signal boosting this because my friends and I were on the forefront of exposing these guys on Instagram. Kind of insane that this is the only video I can seem to find on the topic when this broke last year

As a woman who’s been in the glam metal community for quite some time as i grew up on the genre, i am SOOO tired of the romanticization of rockstars who have been known to be predators and groupie culture🫩🫩💔 the amount of people in the community that talk about wanting to be a motley crue groupie in the 80s gives the community such an awful reputation! Not all of us tolerate shit like this😕

I always encounter their instagram and I'm amazed at how many people don't know about this. I'm glad a bigger channel is covering this.
