There's also the somewhat dubious "disco sucks" thing as well, with its undercurrent of "let's not be friendly to the gays". I feel that there's a certain defensiveness to with some rock fans, like they have to protect the "legacy" of rock (manly) against any infection from dance (more feminine/pansexual). All that this does though, of course, is to treat rock as an even fucking bigger museum piece than it is already, leaving the real advances in music to come from dance (Grime, Dubstep, Bassline and House in the UK).
