Apparently this was a huge hit in the late 1980's.
I imagine sales were driven by teenage boys.
I very much doubt it was bought for the musical quality.

After watching the vidjo maybe it should have been called “Boobs Boobs Boobs”?

When My Mother Learns I Am A Lesbian
Julie Marie Wade

At first, silence, & then a thud of breath as if
her throat has slid through the chute of her lungs
& landed, heavy — like a stone — like a sword
lodged suddenly inside it.

“This explains why you don't wear make-up!” she wails.

A snap — a pulsing panic pulled back & lightly
camouflaged as fear: “What will I tell my friends?
How can I tell my friends? I can never tell my friends!”
Finally, fatigued & determined: “No one must know.”

I give her permission to lie — privilege she takes
as right. I promise her nothing has changed except
the second chromosome of the body resting next to me.

She asks, not wanting the answer: “I suppose you have
to sleep in the same bed?”

– No, in sleeping bags, Mom, cocooned on separate couches
still wrapped in our swaddling clothes. –

I could have said it, but I didn't.
No tolerance for the Absurd.
My mother's voice, all tissue paper & cellophane,
turns tearful, liquid in its pain: “Where did we go wrong?”

I want to tell her not to forgive me, plead through
the twisted wires that she will not waste her prayers.

“We raised you with God's laws,” she says.
“We told you to be pure.”

“You raised me to love,” I say.
“You told me to be happy.”

– But she didn't mean this way, didn't mean this way.
Dear God, she didn't mean this way. –

I watch out the window, sigh.
Already prayers are streaming up the sky.

When I Was Straight
Julie Marie Wade

I did not love women as I do now.
I loved them with my eyes closed, my back turned.
I loved them silent, & startled, & shy.

The world was a dreamless slumber party,
sleeping bags like straitjackets spread out on
the living room floor, my face pressed into a

slender pillow.

All night I woke to rain on the strangers’ windows.
No one remembered to leave a light on in the hall.
Someone’s father seemed always to be shaving.

When I stood up, I tried to tiptoe
around the sleeping bodies, their long hair
speckled with confetti, their faces blanched by the

porch-light moon.

I never knew exactly where the bathroom was.
I tried to wake the host girl to ask her, but she was
only one adrift in that sea of bodies. I was ashamed

to say they all looked the same to me, beautiful &
untouchable as stars. It would be years before
I learned to find anyone in the sumptuous,

terrifying dark.
