Almost 50 years later. And people say that we don't have a culture that puts its head in the sand.

cool point:
>The lyrics in question focus on Reed's friends from Andy Warhol's Factory, among them transgender 'superstars' Holly Woodlawn and Candy Darling.

They were real people!

Of course they were you goof. You can only use the names like "Billy", "Candy", and "Rachel", in your songs so much until people star scratching their heads thinking, "Hmmm, what if they are real people?"

It's funny that the PC authoritarian crybabies get upset over non-existent transphobia but let this line slide.

I'm not saying anyone SHOULD get upset over this line, btw, it just seems like the typical inane shit that BLM and their rich white supporters tend to whine about

They did actually. They made a big issue out of it last year.
If they did their research they could have found out that Lou "hated niggers like Donna Summer" but instead they revolved their anger on one lyric of a song.
>>
>>72958212
They got it wrong.
The name of the album is TRANSFORMER.
Transformer or Transphobic is NOT a Lou Reed song. (At least not one that I know of)

People really need to do their research before spouting such idiotic garbage.
