Why do straight men find Prince attractive?

Physically, I mean.

A lot of gay men don't seem interested in P., which is understandable since Prince is intensely girly and the whole point of being gay is to be attracted to other men.

But a lot of straight (and bi) dudes, even those that aren't necessarily fans, have said they'd sex Prince up if they had the chance, a la Jamie Foxx. nod

Anybody got any theories? Prince is damn cute, but he is still male.






Same question is posed for Johnny Depp, but he's got more of a universal appeal than P. What is it about the Deppster that makes all but the most homophobic of males agree on his fuckability?

P's size is a turn off, but he looks gorgeous. Men that can't admit other men can be good looking are in denial. Women always comment on each other's looks, we should too. I think P is more attractive.

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.

I wouldn't say in denial so much as they're afraid of being seen as gay.

I'm straight but I don't find Prince attractive. Is there something wrong with me? biggrin And no, I'm not in denial either, I can admit it when I think a man is good looking, but Prince just doesn't fit into that category for me. Yes he's fit (as in physically fit, not fit and you know it fit), and has a good physique and he appears (from photographs) to be dermatologically unchallenged, but he's still an ugly little fucker. And that moustache! disbelief

I never liked that pencil thin mustache he likes so much. I like the thicker one he had some time in the early 80's, the beard(especially with the head rap), and then no facial hair at all.

Disclaimers:
I'm not gay or homophobic.I've known gay people for 25 years.
There's nothing gay about admitting that another guy/lady is attractive.

I'm close to 40 and I've never heard straight guys say, 'if I had the chance they would bone any guy'. If you know guys like that, then they're in denial about wanting dick.

Most straight guys think Prince is an oily dwarf who "looks like a fag."

I personally think he's very physically beautiful. Since I'm not attracted to guys, I only really pay attention to the face. Prince's is gorgeous.
The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

Same here. thumbs up! ...and he looks even cooler playing whatever instrument he wants to play. Ain't nothing gay or "girly" about that! Any straight man would love to be able to toy with women the way he does. Maybe they just all jealous, eh?

Well its interesting that the Women love his arse. If he was single and wanted to he could have any number of the Bad arse ladies that come to his concerts. As a holm boy of mine said, "if you want to see some beautiful women go to a Prince concert".

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.
