Welcome to Gaia! ::

Just recently, Lady Gaga was on the news bearing the message of "celibacy".

More than half of her songs have sexually related lyrics on the surface(Teeth, Monster, So Happy I Could Die, LoveGame). Of course, they have deeper meanings when Gaga gives explanations of them, but still, barely anybody actually researches it.

I know that it doesn't just stop at music with Lady Gaga, but millions of fans and people know Lady Gaga solely by her music and fashion alone. Do you guys think that it was a good choice by Gaga to promote celibacy and put it out there on the media? Even when she's famous for videos like Telephone and Love Game, which have a lot of sexually related scenes in them? Or do you guys think that she should have kept it to herself? Do you guys think it will backfire on her or if it will actually be heartfelt to people and changes will happen?

I personally believe that it's sweet of her and that her intentions are golden, but it should have been kept to .. I donno, Twitter? Even though it might've reached the news anyway, it still would have been pointed primarily to her fans only. I just don't think it's a good statement for her to put out there since not everybody does their research on who Gaga is, and will most likely perceive her as a hypocrite.

Just thought it would be an interesting discussion. smile

It's a fancy way to say you're abstinent.

To the OP:

I read up on this and GaGa stated she is practicing celibacy because she really busy with her work.She says she has no time at all to truly cultivate a relationship so she really has no choice but to be celibate unless she really really really doesn't want to be.

Other then that it goes to show that she knows that there is more to life then sex.It really makes her appear more down to earth. heart
