Remember Scene/Emo? 90s-00s subcultures that promoted things like male androgyny? This is a mainstream radiopop example but the band name is a reference to "meterosexuality" or the habit of heterosexual men to adopt the appearance and mannerisms of homosexual men, why?

To score with hawt chicks, obviously.

It was the decades when the events of the "Scott Pilgrim" comics were set.
The "alternative" and "indie" countercultures were dominating the mainstream.
The most popular cartoon was "Invader Zim" and "Mindless Self Indulgence" was all the raeg.

Stupid 13 year old girls (like jesse slaughter) were listening to the shitty rave music made by the myspace celebrities who would prey upon them (like blood on the dance floor).

Watch these two videos, Sam Hyde perfectly captures the scene emo bands of this period (yes, they were often composed of walking red flags).

What the music of the 90s and 00s was for me: https://invidious.protokolla.fi/watch?v=OQyv41FW4HA&list=PLD13FCA15D9C8AFB4&index=0

I worked plenty of “post”-scene / punk adjacent shows 2013-2020. Very androgynous. Everyone was skinny, no boobs on chicks, long hair, all black attire. Not great but better than rap ha.

David Bowie = Ziggy Stardust
Or even earlier, Little Richard
Androgynous prototypes.

Not all that novel. Genx had Hairbands which were extremely androgynous. If you go back even further, the British had Macaroni which was also androgynous. BTW, scene was post 2000's. Pre 2000's it was blink182, limp bizkit etc.

White women swooned over emo/scene bands and it had zero nigger worship. Yes the extreme end of it was cringey, but it still consisted of a nearly 100% European descent fan base. It was similar to 80’s hair metal bands.

Jews didn’t even promote it because it hurt their diversity brand.
