Gej himna

**Gej himna** je popularna pesma koja je dobila posebno značajan status u okviru LGBT zajednice, a posebno u među gejevima, ili je na drugi način identifikovana sa LGBT zajednicom.

Tekst gej himni obično izražavaju nadu, ponos, zajedništvo ili neposlušnost prema ustaljenom moralu sa podtekstualno prisutnom težnjom za revidiranjem vrednosti. U tekstovima se mogu pronaći elementi sa kojima se LGBT zajednica lako identifikuje i koje prepoznaje kao vlastito iskustvo. Neke gej himne govore o iskustvu LGBT osoba, kao na primer „*[[I’m Coming Out]] *“ (Diana Ross), inspirisana nastupom drag queensica, koje su imitirale upravo Dajanu Ros ili Madonina pesma „*[[Deeper and Deeper]] *“, koja govori o tome kako se mladi gej dečak odnosi prema svojoj homoseksaulnosti. 

Većina gej himini su disco hitovi, mada ih ima i u drugim žanrovima. Veliki broj izvođačica ili izvođača gej himini su već popularne/i u gej zajednici i obično imaju status gej ikona.
