This song is deeply, profoundly queer.
...and that's a good thing. The world would benefit greatly if more men accepted their gentler sides (I avoid saying female side because it implies only women can be like this. Not true.) like this song suggests to. Much love to Princey for writing this beautiful song. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

Twinkly1 said: Tame said: Love is the answer to either direction that you are traveling...A relationship that is True for a marriage..will naturally have that friendship attached to it.
If it doesn't...It is merely anywhere in between a stranger, and a glamorous friend. Sometimes, everybody plays the fool, and we marry people that we couldn't go the distance with, because that is proven in the dissolving of the friendship. "If I was your Girlfriend," Is a nice was of explaining that special sliver...in the array...of a relationship that will last eternally. I think my parents have that (59 yrs or marriage) although they do argue alot. Oh, yeah, simply beautiful Tame. I think you got it. [Edited 7/28/08 20:26pm] How sweet...I think that arguments are just as superficial as clothes...when I am angry...and I express it...it's gone...If I am not screaming...there isn't an ounce on anger inside of me...I am strange that way...and I don't argue that often either...Maybe your folx are the same way...God Bless them.

I made thread not long ago about it, and my opinion is that i could relate to it cause i longing for a relationship where my lover is my best friend.
And i said also thats maybe i dont get much lovers cause i treat them like friends. One of his most thougtfull lyrics. Freedom is to trust that you're doing what you must according to your lust | |

One of his most thougtfull lyrics. .. that's very sweet to know.. for any guy to speak like Prince did in IIWYG ... dude must be in love.... any guy speaking from his heart to a female like that from that song... would get anything out of the female (sorry sisters, im spillin' the secrets) highlight edit [Edited 8/24/08 1:33am] | |

No, not the clothes part, but don't they bond in other ways that they're not so comfortable in bonding with women? Any guys going to address robinesque's question? I love this idea! If I was your boyfriend would you remember to bring me a cold beer and tell me the footy scores? If I was your boyfriend would you let me leave my wet towel on the bed? hahhaaaahhh! You might not like the taste but I'm still gonna stick your face in this FUNK | |

I wonder if there is an equivalent, (female to her male) version of the song...if the tables were turned....If I was your boy ...would you tell me everything...hang out kickin' it with me....etc., or if something would be lost in the translation? I like it in theory, but do guys help pick out each others clothes? Isn't it all just back slapping and sports? Fellas? I would, but we dont have the same taste me and my dudefriends. I hear remarks about my clothing from them everytime. Freedom is to trust that you're doing what you must according to your lust | |
