So, without further ado, in the 96th edition of Beaming with Pride 🏳️‍🌈 (2025), we highlight “Homo Christmas” performed by Pansy Division.

In the hands of Pansy Division, Christmas is incredibly queer. That is an understatement, honestly!  The queerness is on brand for a band that specializes in entertaining and unapologetic gay songs. “Homo Christmas”, hence, does not disappoint, appearing as the 29th track on the band’s greatest hits compilation, The Essential Pansy Division. Fun fact, it precedes a song, colorfully titled, “He Whipped My Ass in Tennis (Then I Fucked His Ass in Bed)” 😶 😶 😶

Jon Ginoli (b. 1959) reads our minds on “Homo Christmas.” Forget about the gift of sweaters, underwear, and socks (unless they’re fun undies, of course 😈), “What you’d really like for Christmas is a nice hard cock / You deserve a cut boy who’s horny and queer / To make the most out of Christmas cheer.” He’s not wrong 🤤… In the second verse, Ginoli offers to “Do you [me…us] underneath the Christmas tree.”  This includes unwrapping, but not the gifts underneath the tree, of course 😈! In the third and final verse, we get surefire, unapologetic sexual nourishment – his words, not mine! He asserts, “Licking nipples, licking nuts / Putting candy canes up each other’s butts.” Holy fucking shit! The chorus, the centerpiece of this naughty, NSFW punk, queercore cut, sums up the happenings:

“I wanna be your Christmas present

I wanna be your Christmas queer

I wanna be your Christmas present

Have a homo Christmas

… Have a homo Christmas this year.”   

Does any more need to be said? “Homo Christmas” is homo to the core.  Hey, they don’t call it queercore for nothing, right? Damn right!
