Joan Jett and Lisa Curland 1970s
Get Back Part I / Part III
At one point during the party John sidled up to me and said, “Love your eye makeup, honey!” [Seaman was wearing eyeliner and mascara] Meanwhile, Peter Boyle, who was taking photos, told Marnie Hair he would pay her ten dollars if she would kiss John. “Here’s a picture that’s worth a lot more,” John said. He then kissed me on the mouth.

John told me that he and [Pete] Shotton had lost their virginity around the same time, a fact that John had felt compelled to share with Julian. “It’s good for Julian to know I was a virgin once, too!” said John earnestly. “I don’t want him to think of me as just some weird, mythical dad.” John said he was curious if Julian was still a virgin, but that he could not bring himself to ask his son such an intimate question. “Maybe he’s still trying to figure out his sexual identity and he’ll be offended if he turns out to be gay and thinks I disapprove,” he said. I assured John that based on the time I had spent with Julian in Palm Beach the previous year, I could attest to the fact that his son had a healthy interest in the opposite sex. John remained unconvinced. “Time will tell,” he said.

nothing worse than a picture of a band member taken by another band member
john lennon yelling "i need him" is sooo 😵💫😵💫 idk maybe my ears are broken bc i've never seen anyone talk about this. do people just not hear it or are we ignoring it because he had done much gayer stuff?

-Paul (Anthology)
Hmmmmmmm I wonder why John didn’t sing “to know HER is to love HER” instead? 👀

John and Paul during Revolver sessions
LENNON: But the so-called thing of the Beatles was the fact that we were pretty well educated and not truckers. Paul could have gone to university. He was always a good boy.
PLAYBOY: "Fool on the Hill"? LENNON: Paul. Proving he can write lyrics if he's a good boy.

btw julian lennon is also a lesbian, there is no way that this beautiful woman is a guy
1. The girl from Girl
This song is about Paul who is a lesbian.
2. Eleanor Rigby
Died alone? No husband? Hmmmm. 🤔
3. Rita from Lovely Rita
Bless his heart Paul’s so besotted with her, but I don’t think that was a date. First of all, she paid (ok, brokey); second of all, “sitting on the sofa with a sister or two” - those are her lesbian roommates. They told you that cause they were making fun of you.
4. The girl from Norwegian Wood
A lesbian playing mind games - John’s favourite.
5. She from She’s Leaving Home
I know what you’re thinking: Mo, the song clearly references a man from the motor trade. Ok, and what about he/him butches?? Who’s more likely to work with cars, a man or a lesbian? Did you ever think of that?
6. The singer from I Want to Hold Your Hand
Across the Universe (2007) dir. Julie Taymor
7. Loretta Martin from Get Back
Something very LGBT going on with Loretta, that’s all I’ll say.
8. Jude from Hey Jude
Jude is a gender neutral name and Miss Jude needs to go out and get her.
9. The girl from Ticket to Ride
“She would never be free when I was around,” ok so lesbian who has finally defeated comp het and left her boyfriend or something, idk, I needed a 9 for my punchline.
10. The singer from Here, There and Everywhere
This song is sung by Paul who is a lesbian.
crying at this
i love being obsessed with mclennon! *i say this while shaking and crying*
Glasses, John!
you can tell paul had it from the very beginning. he was on the ed sullivan show about to perform in front of millions of americans for the first time. the others still seemed reserved but paul mccartney came out fucking bouncing bobbing his jelly round head long anime girl legs giving disney knees before either of those concepts were a thing singing oh yeah i'll tell you something. and he did. without care. through grainy static filled screens he captured the souls of thousands of women so fast that 60 years later i am typing this on tumblr. just raw star power.
straight guys popped off with the whole jerking off together as bros thing. unless that’s just in porn that might just be porn
