Butch Femme Planet - Do you have a crush on anyone here at The Planet?

Why are we closeted, anyway? And why the hating on ABBA? Don't want to guess at little_fish and Lil-Miss-Sunshine's ages, but we had fun music back then :). We had fun times, period :).

I was going to ask if you saw the movie (the music was the best part, IMO), but didn't know it was a traveling show :). Yay!

I'm guihong, btw, ABBA lover and general '70's swooner ;).

I love me some ABBA :winky:

This is my favorite scene from the movie, Mamma Mia - talk about "girl power" lol - I love how all the women just keep joining in - and that woman who throws off the bundle of sticks and screams "Oh Yeah!" - love it!

Whenever I watch the movie, I have to replay this song over and over again, it is so much fun. :)

Guys and Gals

I still hate ABBA, never liked them, could never understand why anyone would.

Nor did I ever dream of marrying Agnetha, even after her divorce from Björn in 1982. In fact, every 5th April (her birthday), I say a prayer of thanks that I am not married to her.

Do I protest too much?

I don't know but, if so, at least listen to my all time favourite songs by some Swedish group:

In case, you didn't know by now, I LOVE ABBA. Finally out of the closet about it and it feels good ;)

"Seriously crush"? Why waste your time with serious crushing, I'll marry someone who loves ABBA as much as I do.

Being closeted in an ABBA sense is a powerful tool and is very different from being closeted over sexuality or identity.

It's not that being "out" as ABBA is wrong or that we fear our families would turn against us etc. Rather, being "closeted" gives us the surprise factor ......... I work up to 16 hours a day, it's a hard and conservative and smile-less life. It's black suits and hard work.

But on my way into the office and on my way back home, there's nothing better or more real than listening to "dancing queen" .. or my current favourite:

ABBA, for me, is the same as my fashion. It's just a part of me. Some get it - most don't. That's fine as I don't get most people either. It's so out of my day-to-day world of 9am to 5pm white collar-ism that if I ever tried to actually fit into it I couldn't.

ps - I'm all for kissing the teacher.
