Before we dig into the last Periodical Political Post of the year I’d like to note something about the comments regarding the article about cross dressing in Qatar.

I saw this a wee while ago on the net. I thought it was from this site. It must have been from a very similar site to this.
I now notice it was on this site 10 months ago. Very thought provoking. The Nordic countries are very gay friendly. More power to you all.

This was a great video post!! I can’t believe that parents still act like that…especially in public!!! If I am ever a spectator to a parent doing something like that i will probably be forced to have to beat some sense into the father lol

The movie is from the 80s it takes place in the 60s and the song is from the 2000s I found out that much from the band blog but they never said the name of the movie but on another website they did but it was not in english so I could not read it.

The next Sigur Ros video I saw had naked young people in it. Not as young as the picture above but late teens/early 20′s. Can’t recall what that one was called.
This is a good video.

No girl played a boy the movie was done in the 80s and the music was done in the 2000s. Then the band put them together because the boys in the band are all gay and when they wher kids they saw the movie.

Where did you get that from? I was going to post a link to the Wikipedia but I realized Davie had already done it (#23 above).
There’s no movie… It’s just a video… And the only gay member of Sigur Rós is Jónsi (the lead singer).

The boys in the band aren’t all gay. Why do you say things you don’t know?

What is the name of the movie? Does it have english subtitles?

I can abso-fucking-lutely guarantee you that the panicked fathers in this film – both biological and clerical – fooled around with other boys when they were young. Young boys in “relationships” with young boys – often nothing more than normal hero-worship or the matchless thrill of trusting friends trading casual access to each other’s body, is a big part of life’s learning process.
Play, (with guns, trucks, tea sets and dolls, toy tools and appliances, etc etc) is rehearsal for life, and older kids rehearse love and sex too. What these luscious boys forgot was that affection at this age requiress DISCRETION, and PDAs, whether hetero or homo, between budding adolescents are unnerving. The over-reacting grownups all did the very same things – they just tried not to get caught. If this was a boy & girl laying down together & kissing on a soccer field in front of spectators at this age, the father of the girl might very well have KILLED the boy, and grounded his frighteningly precocious daughter for the rest of her life.
Moral of the story? When you’re a young boy, do what you like with who you like – just keep it to yourselves. Besides, secretly fulfilling a forbidden sexual attraction makes it all the more nasty, titilating and delicious. Enjoy.

Are you people stupid there is a movie it was made in the 80s go ask the band where they got the footage from look it up . We fans of the movie in this video need to know the name of the movie please
about 1 year ago
How can the band be in the footage, oh wise one, if it was made in the 80s?
I think we would all prefer not to be called stupid, but we’re perfectly capable of not feeding trolls if you insist in being rude.

Great clip! Have many of us actually experenced this?
about 1 year ago
To put this to rest once and for all: There is definitely no film. The whole video was filmed and produced in 2001 by the band and exclusively for this song.

Sometime you adults argue about the silliest things.
A couple of years ago I saw this video. This one and the other Scandinavian video where the gay kid, a boy asks another boy to dance really helped me to tell my parents I am gay.
These videos, they are provocative in this adult homophobic world but that doesn’t mean we should stop listening to our hearts.
When I told my Mom I was gay she told me that she already knew and loved me. She told me she knew since the time I kissed my best friend (a boy) when I was 7. I don’t remember it. But she said we kissed twice that day and held hands frequently.
I guess I don’t remember it because my parents never made a big deal about it. We lived outside of Amsterdam at this time and I think the world is nicer to gay kids in Europe than here in the States.
Thank you all for your posts.
