And then people wonder why the cis incels will always flock to female artists more and never give boy bands/groups a glance at all.
So BTS being nominated at all and being South Korean is a miracle in and of itself but being both also works against them. Until they get the men™ validation as The Beatles did, no male judging body will ever vote for BTS.
When you think of the Backstreet Boys and the major success "I want it that way" achieved and how impactful it still is almost thirty years later, not being nominated for ANYTHING, here's the very reason why. So I'm not even expecting BTS to win (unless it's to throw a bone for clout in their hiatus when not one BTS member has been sighted/reported to even be going to the Grammys this year ) Anything that is loved more by women will always be deemed inferior and this just confirms what we've been saying all along.
