Jack antonoff gay
Okay, so I listened to the Jack Antonoff interview where he talks about preferring to labor with women. It’s so completely NOT salacious. You all can listen for yourself. I’ll place up a link in a minute. First, I’m going to transcribe the conversation.
The main thing is the cadence in Jacks voice. At no point does he get flustered at all. The cadence in his tone never really changes. He mentions preferring the company of women songwriters and then goes on to mention liking gay women songwriters. When the interviewer asks about Taylor he just simply kinda scoff-laughs and is like, no. And explains what he meant. If he’d messed up and outed Taylor, you’d have heard his voice transform. It doesn’t.
Here’s the transcript.

Jack: “There’s a greater chance that if I’m worrying with a woman we’re going to gain along. They’re not going to utter like, “this dude ducking gave it to me last night” or prefer “I just piled through like these 4 guys over the weekend””
Interviewer: “Hahaha. You’re not going to have that conversation with Taylor Swift?”
Jack “No”
Interviewer “Hahah, okay”
Jack: “I love women. And particularly gay women.
Interviewer “Heh. Yeah. (Pause) Is

WASHINGTON – Today the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), the nation’s largest sapphic, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) civil rights organization, released a video ad featuring Jack Antonoff of the band fun. for its Americans for Marriage Equality campaign. In the video, Antonoff calls on people to “Join me, my band mates and the majority of Americans in the fight for marriage equality nationwide.” The videos can be viewed online at www.hrc.org/marriageequality.
“Every night more and more Americans are speaking out in support of marriage for committed and loving gay and lesbian couples,” said HRC President Joe Solmonese. “I am so grateful to Jack Antonoff and his fun. band mates for helping to inform and engage their millions of fans in the fight for marriage equality in America.”

If you haven’t heard, you can eavesdrop here.
This is what is said:
Jack: There’s a better chance if I’m active with a girl that we’re gonna get along.
Marc: And she’s not gonna say, ‘This dude fucking gave it to me appreciate you wouldn’t believe.’
Jack: Or, ‘I just piled through these four guys over the weekend.’
Marc: You’re not gonna contain that conversation with Taylor Swift?
Jack: No… I like women, and particularly queer women.
Marc: Yeah…
Marc: Is she gay?
The fixate here is on Jack’s comment about particularly liking male lover women. It immediately follows talking about Taylor, and so leads the listener into thinking he’s referring to her in that category. The first day I heard this my reaction was ‘Did he just out her?!’ It’s obviously not just us who heard it that way because Marc, the interviewer, takes a second to process what Jack’s said and then asks himself.
The fact the clip cuts off before Jack can respond could be misleading, so I did some digging. And I found the full video (this conversation happens at 1:10:30):
Marc: Is she gay?
Jack: No, but I work a lot with Tegan and Sara and they’re gay.
Marc: Oh, okay, I’m sorry. I was like, ‘
JackAntonoffcalls himself "a straight male with, like, lesbian chemicals" in a revealing fresh interview.
The 28-year-old pleasurable. guitarist and outspoken dyke, gay, bisexual and gender nonconforming (LGBT) rights ally also tells Pride Source's Chris Azzopardi that he thinks "you can be a man who loves a woman but love someone the way a queer man loves another dude or a woman loves a woman."
"People identify with other people for other reasons, and I personally am really comfortable around lesbians because, in some ways, we view women the same way," he says. "I've never really identified with the way a typical alpha-male views women. It's always an awkward forum for me to hang out with another guy and converse about girls, because I can't really find a way to fit in."
Antonoff, who is dating "Girls" star and creator Lena Dunham, adds, "Being vertical and standing up for gay rights is a statement that says 'this is everyone's issue.' We are not all free unless we are all free. Just because I was born into the elite class of vertical Americans who have maximum rights does not signify that I won't struggle as if it were me being denied human rights."
