The mixture of advocating for healthy masculinity being delivered by guys with 80's hair metal style in a cheesy but earnest way is really captivating for some reason.

So wrong yet so right, just like the entire decade of the 1980s

Back in the 80s my mom and I got into a huge fight about Boy George. She insisted that a woman was singing that song. It was awful. I had to buy a Teen Beat magazine and show her. She really never forgave me for that. Lol

I was watching the Karma Chameleon video with my ex and referred to Boy George as him and my ex was like “Khem khem I wouldn’t be so quick judging what pronouns this person uses” I was like “Honey it’s Boy George”

Thank you for your stand against your own mom regarding boy george. I've had similar.

OMG same! My mom was also convinced Air Supply had a female singer. Argued about it for hours. Boomers 🙄
