Hateraid my ass. You read some of the posts here? And you DON'T think Prince has crazy fans? It's a fun kind of crazy though. Lighten up.  "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

I would expect the fans to be more eclectic in their taste than people from a lot of other fanbases. As for the fans identifying with him that's not clear because after all who is Prince? Many things. I mean you don't go to a concert and find mostly small men with delicate feature and a napoleonic complex. Case in point, the guy behind me at the ONA concert was 6'3" and weighed maybe over 300 pounds. But you know what? He sang in falsetto -- loud! As for women and gay men objectifying him, I don't know... why don't you ask Zeleira?
So not much can be said. I was convinced at one point there was an higher prevalence of compulsive personalities, but then I met an MJ fan and felt much better about my fellow Princeheads. Those on the Org are a little bit wacky but in a nice way. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

What a great question. I don't know what the answer is.
I think Prince fans are special because it takes a lot to understand his music. Some people think he's over confident and a musical genius. Others think he's a regular guy making music and having the guts to speak his mind. I became a Prince fan when I realised how much stuff he was churning out. Everything was new, fresh and vibrant and seemed so disinctly his. Plus HIS personality shone through, funny, sad, happy, angry, warts and all. And I like that. Oh. And he's very funny..
