Look it up. It's the law.

Title 7, United States Code § 3121, as implemented by title 17 Code of Federal Regulations § 777.93, subpart 11.

There's something sexy about a guy dressing like that and I don't know what the hell it is, but Prince was right when he said he wears high heels because the women love it. Go figure.

hey ive got some sweet and sexy ties....

The way Prince dressed back then way pretty much the way most rock and rnb dudes dressed too. It was the times (see Rick James). If people thought he was gay just off that, they need to go back and look.

That look was a reaction to the "bedenimed" 70s....all flared jeans, long skanky hair w/ huge side boards/beards. Dudes in the 70s had what I used to think of as the "Wolfman Jack look".

If prince was gay he would be telling the world about it since day one....

Prince said it himeself in his first interview with rolling stone...

"I am not jamie starr and I am not gay"

And his track record proves this....beeing well known of his woman to woman status....Dude just loves woman...

And if he was gay I could care less....

nyse said:

he WAS lying about not being jamie starr...

And, people don't label Prince gay just because he's dressed in women's clothing and makeup and gotten his hair done in ways usually associated with women for decades.

His demeanor often is incredibly shy, passive and quiet-spoken. The sensitivity so many of his female fans here rave about, coupled with those traits, can cause a lot of folks to think of him as being, well, girlish.

And, he's modeled behavior seen by other male celebrities/entertainers -- say, Liberace and Little Richard -- who are gay.


And, Jakeasaurus, you raise an excellent point!

Lil Richard...shy and sensitive?

^^^^^

ahhhh...good point...But he did end up admiting this in the future...

In a recent interview with the beautiful wendy and lisa...they stated
something about Prince allways loved woman and beein a "fancy lesibian"...

But they also said that they cant be fully open about here answers....

so until the day he "comes out"...I beleave what I see...And prince is allways
seen getting cozy with females.....married twice to woman....Robin power said
he is all man....but then again vanity might have another opinion

For Godssakes this man is 51 years old! Does it even matter anymore. Prince, in my opinion is so beyond sexuality and I how do I know this listen to fucking music bitches.

Even if he one day came out and said "I'm gay." I really wouldn't care.

This thread is
It has been done to death, it is a stupid generalisation about gay people and Prince
When will people realise that not every gay person has to be like Carson Kressly, Boy George, Julian Clary, Graham Norton, Lypsinka and any of the characters out of Too Wong Foo or the Birdcage.
Everymonth or so a Prince's sexuality thread comes up under a different guise. Just because the guy is of a small and delicate frame, is well dressed and sartorially eloquent and not living up to the ultra macho gangsta rapper image expected of black men in some circles, he has to be labelled as gay. Why is gay so bad anyway, why does anyone actually care

Little Richard -- grappling with extremely overtly feminine behavior, and in his case, homosexual desires, and coming from a religious background where the repression of all his stuff seemed fundamental. Prince has borrowed a lot of his look, schtick and musical sense from Little Richard.

And, when Richard isn't blasting on 10 and acting over the top, you'd be surprised how sensitive and pensive he can be.

But, again, Prince's flamboyance owes a lot to gay entertainers like Liberace and Little Richard.

And, back to the religious thing for a moment: I doubt Prince -- given his religious background and current affiliation -- would ever come out as gay.

Lock this thread PLEASE!

NastradumasKid said:

Looks like two pages worth of people feel otherwise.


Besides, sex and sexual attraction are still current topics of his songwriting. That he continues to cast women as the objects of those topics, while displaying such overtly feminine characteristics is very much a relevant topic on a Prince forum.

Hmmm, if you're celibate, is straight or gay irrelevant?

TheEnglishGent said:

i Always felt and feel that the way Prince dressed and dresses was and is romantic!!!!!

Prince is also concidered a SEX SYMBOL..
and also known for dating the most beautiful of women...

SCARLETTPUZY said:

Kill the argument. Some people will ignore the obvious and continue to stir up controversy to get you riled up. It doesn't matter if other people think he's gay, we know differently just let them wallow in their simple-mindedness.

dseann said:

Good point but it's beyond hysterical the double standards Prince fans have when it comes to believing other musical stars are straight.

in all honesty i never thought he was gay gender bending tranny tendencies yeh sure.but now a days ...lawd no comment

I totally disagree with your opening statement. Society is a World, and it is only some individuals in the world that make these statements or accuasations...Ur post even has to take responsibility for contributing to a false idea.

Prince has made it loud and clear in his music that he is not a homosexual. Cheerful in his ways...sure why not. Prince is a versatile performer and that ability to flambuoyant with his personality is definitely in his blood. Prince's depth should never be limited to a label of any kind.

Prince should be respected as a musician and a spiritual man that is ever-changing and open to the public's judgements. God Bless Him.

Prince is very feminine to me, very pretty. He's flirted with being both sexes for years.

NastradumasKid said:

Couldn't have said it better myself

Prince is a woman or man on ANY given day! He wanted to attract attention from men and women. Prince is bisexual Alex for $500...



It's really water under the bridge now he's getting up there in age.

Vanity does have another opinion, she put him on blast, that was NOT very nice of her to do either. She know she enjoyed that Purple Rain Thunder while it lasted!

well ,i never, ever seen anyone in the 70s dress like this(rick james?)...i joked with my mom with this pic..told her this dude IS straight : ) wont repeat her response...anyway..when i say society, you're all taking it out of context..guess i should've said NON PRINCE FANS..cause if i wasnt a fan, seeing this pic i would say the same GAY LIKE BOY GEORGE...could you blame me, or any non fans out there? and btw, gay / straight / bi/ really dont care..just like the music and the vibe he brings..just trying to make a point...people out there (alot of them )see him that way, so despite the hundreds of song he sings about women..that doesnt change theire views...George michael sang about women and made millions and he IS gay.

You really need to stop putting gay people down. Your true colors are shining thru.
