Oh, honey. No.
Lol like Trump is actually going to pay you for using the song, it really is rubes all the way down
He's using every brain cell he has to not find out a gay anthem isn't a gay anthem because the entire writing staff is entirely gay and wrote the song for gay men explicitly, but because gay people use it as an anthem.
My step-son was 11 and constantly singing YMCA.
"Look, I don't want to freak you out, but in case you get made fun of at school, YMCA is a gay anthem. No problem with that, but you should know."
He was horrified, so he started singing "I Will Survive" instead. I just didn't have the heart to tell him.
The oracle has spoken
My brother and I both became obsessed with I Will Survive around the age of 10/11. He's a full decade older than me, and our parents still don't understand why that happened with either of us. He's straight, I'm gay. Gloria Gaynor is just amazing in general, and while we gays have claimed her (and her us), her music could, should, and hopefully will be appreciated by all.
I Am What I Am is just straight up queer, though. No reclaiming that one for straight folk. Gayest song ever, and it's wonderful. Lol.

Wait - I sing "I Will Survive" for karaoke, what's the deal with that? Does everyone now think I'm gay? Because they would be wrong, I'm actually bi.
Where is he learning his songs from?
His stepmother Amy has a cousin named Randolph.

WOW! Not much in the news has shocked and surprised me as much as this article has.
Victor Willis says he will take legal action against any news organization that suggest "Y.M.C.A." is a gay anthem beginning in January 2025
I'm really curious to know what legal action he intends to take. Doesn't he have to show some sort of damages for any hope of not throwing his money away on frivolous lawsuits that will go nowhere?
He does, but it can also be things like reputation damage or "the fascists stopped paying for my song because they thought it was gay".

I mean, Liberace sued for libel and won after a news outlet accused of him of being gay:
He says that, but he seems to really aggressively be sucking Trumps cock here.
Its not "a" gay anthem.
Its the gay anthem. FTFY.

Okay, that's just the gay anthem according to south park. :D
There's also Freedom, which I really like
Not anymore, we're doing HOT TO GO now!
So there's an underlying spelling fetish? Interesting.
"I Will Survive"?

I really thought all the Village People members were gay. Today I Learned:
“From 1978 until 1982, Willis was married to Phylicia Ayers-Allen (now Phylicia Rashad), whom he met during the run of The Wiz, and who later played Clair Huxtable on The Cosby Show”
