have anyone of you ever been into a fight because of prince. goddammit, now when i really think back it makes me wonder the kinda effect he's had in my life. i don't just love him like a fan. i love him like he's a relative.. i slapped a friend o mine back in '84 in highschool.... he kept calling prince a fucking faggot ass (cos he had those eye makeup on all the time). i just slapped him right across his face. he stopped after that. i still don't regret it at all. turn back the clock, i'll do it again.

jeya said:

yes. recently. at work.

The argument wasn't going well at all, he kept on and on how Prince is a hack and can't sell any records...then ass said Prince isn't even a has been...he was a never was. Argument was over. I won because if he was a never was, why are we discussing a nobody 20 years later....to me thats a somebody.

Yes,because guys Generally aren't into him ,but I LOVE Prince so if ya don't SCRAM!

Physically...no! But I've had some good virtual ones on here!

whenever im chilling with my friends and im drunk i get into push offs when i put on my prince Cd and take out thier gangster garbage.


i remember i put on the bueatiful ones, one time, got some flak, but a few minutes later i hear my boy unconsciencely screamin," BABY, BABY, BABY!" while he was takin a piss in the next room.everyone weant hysterical.he cant turn off my prince, now!!!!!

All the time! I've threatened my own relatives 4 calling Prince a faggot. I've had 2 threaten to cut many people. my aunt linda was smacked 4 it.

no, but I'm willing to slap somebody for him so they better not mess with me

Yeah. Just yesterday my cousin called Prince a woman & I slapped him & said u better shut the fuck up b4 I turn u in2 a woman. He ain't called him a woman yet & if he knows whats best 4 him he won't.

I have been a Prince fan since 1983 and have arguments about him ever since. It's usually because the FIRST thing people say when they find out I am a Prince fan is "isn't he gay?" I say "no", and they go into the makeup and clothes. I say "he loves women"! Now I say "he's married". Some people say "that doesn't mean anything". I try to talk about the music but most people can't understand. I usually just let it go. Some people will never get it. Thier loss!

Er, actually it's true that beign married to a woman doesn't mean a damn thing. Not saying he's gay, but....

And to answer: No, I haven't. Why would I fight about someone I've never met?

No, never because i can't lower myself to their level. I'm a Prince fan, wtf!

Hah, I still get personally insulted if I hear somebody talk shit about Prince. Twelve years in the brewing!

usually his guitar solos shut the fuck of everybody bad mouthing him. Just try 3 chains of gold or lets go crazy with any headbanging metallica fan.

you are kidding me!!

of course not.

I used 2 not anymore.
But 12 years ago i was playing in this rock band and my great friend The bass player was calling him a faggot and all this stuff,he was a great chiliepeppers fan.a month after this we saw the give it away video when they kiss each other!
And they started (chilie P) having such a gay image,and i had my revange!

no.

yes--but not really seriously

just those instances when people know you love someone so they make fun of him

to egg you on like:

"Oh, I thought he was gay",

"How can you consider a man whos so girly to be sexy"? "He's such a fag"

"Isnt he a foot shorter than you?" "Do you really take him seriously"

"...but he wears make-up and high heels!"

etc., etc., etc.

i am a man that has defended prince my whole life
and once i got into a fist fight at a house party
defending prince's manhood.wich is hard to do for a man who wears highheels and loves the color purple,but all i have to say is kim bassinger and carmen electra

Today in one of my classes my professor showed us a Prince video "Get Up" He was telling us something about how he uses the women and how many women were angry with him about the video. I wasn't paying attention though, I was trying to concentrate on the video. In highschool I had a music teacher who said he use to do something with Prince, but I can't remember. He showed us the "Purple Rain" movie, but noone cared about the movie. They thought it was bad. oh, well

Get Off?

uh yeah that was a typo

OH man tons of times...
As I said many time before, my mom has been a Prince fan from the beginning. And I've always "known" Prince, he's like a member of my family (I'm 26). Anyway I used to have Prince buttons, t-shirts, etc. I'd be proud 2 have my little Controversy button on my jean jacket. And kids would make fun of me in first grade. I remember choking out quite a few kids for them calling me a fag, and there favorite question "is he (Prince) your boyfriend.." After the summer everyone came back with Purple Rain shirts, and all that...I've always resented Purple Rain people due to that fact. I've associated them with picking on me...

a look into my psyche and childhood

Nero, you really took me back to my high school days. I'm 37 years old. I used to run around school with my backpack with around 100 buttons (pre-Purple Rain) on it. People didn't say anything really mean they just looked at me funny. They would call me Prince. I hated that!!!! I don't resemble him in the least. I hated the fact that Prince rolled around on his 1999 tour and I couldn't go because I had no one to take me. I'm an only child. WAAAAA!!! Good times....good times.....

Are you talking about fighting or argueing. If you are talking about physically fighting, then the answer is no. Fighting is fucking rediculous under any circumstances except for self defense.

As far as argueing, now that's a different story. I very rarely got into an arguement with anyone back in the day because most everyone I knew loved Prince. These days, it's a little different.

If it's someone younger than I am, I usually hear "Prince is gay" or "Prince's music sucks". As for the gay thing, I usually say "Oh, I certainly hope so" or "If you can't stand him, then why are you giving him a complement?" The arguement usually doesn't last very long because I usually end it with a statement that they cannot respond to like..."What the hell do you know about music anyway because you come from a generation that only knows ballads and hip hop....you're not worthy of me wasting my time argueing with you".

If it's someone my age or older, I usually hear "Prince ain't shit like he used to be...he's off on a far out trip and has stayed there ever since Purple Rain". I usually agree with them on that but I also reply by saying "Even on the weird, far out trip he's been on for years, he still kicks the hell out of anyone else's ass out there...he's the only one that can still jam....everyone else resorts to doing weak ass ballads". They can't argue with that. A lot of the time, I hear "He's a faggot" as a last resort. I reply by saying "Ain't it a damn shame that it takes a faggot to show the rest of the world how to jam? So called straight people can't seem to get past midtempo or sissyfied ballads". Sometimes I respond to them the same way I do with the younger people..."If you don't like him, then why are you giving him a complement?". Homophobic people hate for you to consider their insult as a complement.

after people find out im a prince listener they always answer with
"isnt he gay?"
i just ask them if they think michael jackson is gay?
they usually say no

then i remind them about the way michael acts off stage and inform them about the way prince is off stage

joy in repetition will shut those metal ppl up aswell
especially a live version

theres plenty of r&b lovers that diss me if they find out i like prince, wtf??

the thing is i could show them soooo many songs that would change their minds

There's no denieing that the man is feminim(or wateva).My gay male friend and I watch the Hits Collection DVD together and drool all other the T.V.

I believe his feminim side gives him the best of both words, his creativity, vitality, sexuality, passion and wicked sence of style.

I've noticed feminim traits in other great artists like Jimmy Hendrix and Lenny Kravitz. Nobody questions their sexuality.

What was the question again ?????

Oh yeah, when people dog him out.Saying he's a fag. I jus say "nah he's jus essentric".
