they don't. the question implies straight men in general find him attractive, but they don't. the few and far between that do make it an individual question and not one that can be applied to straight men in general.

Quite a few of my straight friends have admitted to me that they find Prince sexually attractive. This happened especially during the Under the Cherry Moon to Batman era, with Lovesexy being the high point.

The obvious reason, as some of my friends have explained to me, is that he "looks like a chick" and has a "sexy ass" that looks like a woman's ass or better than most women's asses. Behind it, however, I think it is that to straight men he represents a masculine ideal: a feminine form or body without the difficulties of actually being with a woman. After all, despite being girly, Prince is nothing but masculine in his character. So, a straight man is attracted to him, despite his hairy chest and thin moustache, because he has enough feminine physical appeal to make him sexy yet without the hang ups of a woman. Men are self-referential, self-interested creatures, generally preferring to hang out with other guys. To reduce it to the lowest common denominator, if it weren't for their bodies, men would probably not give women a second glance or want to be with them. Prince represents what they desire physically while being a mirror upon themselves.


hmmm Could be....


Thanks for the thought-out reply, btw. biggrin

Of course i didn't mean all straight men find him attractive. What I meant was that, in general, if you were to ask a whole crowd of men of various sexualities if Prince was hot, chances are you'd get more affirmative answers from the straight and bi guys than the gay ones.

I don't think I've ever met a gay man in real life or online that found Prince attractive, but I've met a surprising number of straight and bisexual ones that do.

I think it has something to do with his wardrobe, and the fact that he cuts a very feminine figure while wearing his clothes.

Look at all the clothes he worn...from the little briefs days, to the see-through lace of Purple Rain, the knee-high boot naked posings of the Lovesexy era, the tie-up shirts of The D&P era...and how about that "Gangster Glam" video where he is practically wearing lingerie for a swimsuit.
Add to this the high heel boots, and he can look very feminine in his figure.
Finish it off with the fact that he has always been so sexual.

I think if Prince were a t-shirt, jeans and sneakers kinda guy, like Springsteen, there wouldn't be nearly as much hetero attraction.
The clothes truly make the man

Prince does not look anything like a woman to me, I've always seen him as 100% masculinity. Prince is just damn sexy!

or more than likely you would just get all of them saying they don't find him attractive. again, ask the straight men that you know why they do. you cannot create a hypothetical group of straight men, then hypothetically say the majority will find him attractive, and then ask for real reasons why these hypothetical men find him attractive. that is just a fake situation made up of fake men, so how do you expect to get a true answer from that when it was simply made up to validate your stance. you made up these men so make up their reasons.

if you want the tuth to the question, start a thread asking "do any of you straight men find Prince attracive and why?" you see the difference in the questions. yours asks for opinions from men or women, straight or not, on why they think straight men may find him attractive, while mine actually asks the few straight men that do why, which is teh answer you are looking for. you can't ask a general question that doesn't apply to men in general and expect an answer because there is no answer to it. unless of course you want to make up the group of men like you have in your example, in which that case since you made them up just make up their answer.

Because we're gay. That's why. I swear to God, I have about 2000+ jpg images of various beautiful women that I have just habitually saved while browsing the internet over the years (I'm a beauty junkie), but I also have a folder titled "Prince" amidst that collection.


I also have a Prince folder of pics I think he looks really good in. LOL, I've been made fun of for that.


Cause damn it the man is pretty!

and yeah I have a Prince pics folder too lol

...I'm so ashamed boxed
If you will, so will I

We need to squash this quickly. No straight man is attracted to Prince. I can state that as a fact because I personally have never wanted a man in my life, Prince included. A straight man likes rounded hips, breasts and pussy. However, it goes further than that. Women have ways of carrying themselves and innate sensibilities that a man just doesn't have. A straight man doesn't really talk to other men about the same things we talk to women about. So you're wrong about us just wanting the woman for her body. It only starts there. If you are a man and this isn't the case then I guess you aren't as "straight" as you think. lol

Nonetheless, I can see the qualities Prince has that a woman would like. These are qualities that I have, aspire to, or can do without not ones I wish for in a woman.

I have never ever found Prince attractive.

He's funny looking.

He has wierd permed hair.

He dresses like a cross between a drag queen and a figure skater.

He is shorter than alot of women.


I will, however, gladly have sex with him. shrug
