Notes from Butiki Baboy

Queer art vs not queer

Queer

  • streams of consciousness, playful (problematic because some straight people do so)
  • more experimental
  • Andaming pinanggalingan vs straight na medyo careless and walang pake sa reception

Straight

  • like orgasm yung text

The need to categorize is weird because we dont categorize straight art as straight. But labels do help for marketing. But labels are unnecessary.
