Man sues writer of the song.....
"I will survive"...sung by Gloria Gaynor (n.b. Frederick Perren and Dino Fekaris) in the 1970s. He claims that he heard the song in a disco and then went out on the dance floor..dancing,pumping his fists into the air and singing along with the tune. His girlfriend had recently dumped him.---Anyway--he says he was humiliated because all of his friends started calling him (blanked out gay references) etc. right there.
He is suing for sexual discrimination because the song was written exclusively for women who were dumped by a man.-And that his rights were knowingly violated by the songwriter.
