the biggest queer mormon power play ever played was when the lead singer of Neon Trees made the band famous and had several hit songs and then in rolling stone was like “oh btw i’m gay and Sleeping With a Friend is about having sex with a male friend” and then looked at his other band mates like “what are you gonna do about it” and the other band members had to be like (cough) yeah. we, uh, we know it goes against our doctrine but we support him. and he was like “that’s what I thought”
The moral of the story is that if you want to come out to your homophobic friends all you gotta do is become the face and frontman of the band that is their sole source of income and sleep w whoever you want
Otherwise just ditch em
