Prince.Org in Bitch Magazine!

OMG, KIDS! We've been mentioned in the letters page of Bitch magazine! And I was mentioned by name! woot!

This is what was written as reader response to the article they featured on Prince in their last edition:

And what to say about Prince ("Prince and the Revolution" no. 40)? Apparently, plenty. "As a longtime Prince fan, and a feminist long before I understood what the word really meant, I've often been challenged by others as to how I could possibly support an artist many perceive as sex-obsessed and mysoginistic. It's good to hear that there are others who see the same pro-woman good in him -inconsistencies and all -that I do," emailed (me with my real name). And Jason Webber's article was front-page news at the online fan community prince.org, where a few serious Prince smitties took issue with the characterization of the man as a feminist. Wrote commentator ThreadBare: "I don't see how anyone familiar with Prince's music could confuse him with a feminist. The first half of his career was spent objectifying women sexually and dressing them in next to nothing while having them act out his sexual fantasies. In more recent years, he has still constructed a world in which he exerts control over women -this time through religious instruction (given, of course, by him)." And SteelyD opined "[The song] 'Strange Relationship' says it all: 'I didn't like the way you were, so I had to make you mine' Even if he is talking religion,...in the end the woman has to be what he thinks she should be." Others on the board kept their comments simple: "I like the illustration but it doesn't do justice 2 his amazing arse."

Possibly. But considering in this context, Bitch is meant as a positive, that's hardly a bad thing.

Prince isnt God, but sadly, he thinks he is.

Maybe not God, but he does seem to think he's actually a prince and not just named for one.

Do u think maybe he has forgotten what it is to be "real"...to go down the store for his mamma and buy cigarettes and tampons?

Maybe. But it's probably not just him. Living in that celebrity fishbowl has got to do a number on anyone's perception after a while.

How fucking embarassing.

Hope this person is ashamed of themselves, they now apparently sum up the fans who agree Prince is a feminist.

BTW, the concept of Prince being feminist?
