A movement that which erupted in the 1970s promoting vanity, copiousness, surreality, narcissism, campness and hauteur. A spin-off of the word 'glamourous.'
"Glam is about femme girls and femme boys and girls who look like femme boys and boys who like like butch girls."

Glam individuals usually dress in outrageous fashion: jumpsuits, 3-inch platform space boots and heavy amounts of makeup.

Rock subgenre that began in the 70s in Britain and later spread to the US, becoming huge in the 80s. Glam rock is very different from the poseur "hair bands"(Slaughter, Winger, Trixter.)The scene was ended by the Seattle grunge movement although some bands have reunited.

80s glam= Twisted Sister, Hanoi Rocks, Motley Crue

Glam is an acronym for Gay LA Music and is a shitty subgenre of heavy metal.
Still superior to grunge though.
