hi! in a hypophetical scenario where dnp were never closeted (as gay and a couple) do you think they would have achieved the same professional success in traditional "prestige" outlets like bbc and brits? they themselves seem to not think so, do you agree?
no they absolutely would not have. they wouldn't have even had similar youtube success as out queer people in the 2000s, let alone get picked up by RTE or the BBC. a young gay couple would have been blackballed by every major media corporation and general society as a whole. there was a subsection of their own fans in the 2010s who were vocal about how they'd leave if dnp were actually queer
