He's not gay, never was gay, never will be gay. So that leaves the men outside his bedroom ...

Not if an actual serious discussion can come of it. And if you actually paid attention to some of his lyrics (Anna Stesia, anyone?) you'd understand it's not necessarily "pointless speculation".

Then that should qualify as a NONSENSE thread, right? It's like asking what if Prince was a Llama? What if he was a camel? What if he was donkey's balls? You get the point? It's pointless speculation!


Also if he were gay he would have come out and said it, there is nothing to hide. People who have worked with him, girls who have loved him and he himself have repeatedly said he is NOT gay. So why not respect it and leave it at that.

I think what she was saying was that if you have serious conversation about it, then it would be a nonsense thread.

This thread is absolutely no different than the "what if Prince knocked on your door" or "what if musicology was his first album" threads. if this thread gets knocked, I'm advocating all the others get locked, too.

Maybe we need to change this into "what if Prince's fantastic wonderful ass was gay?" since threads about his ass are always

Do you think his music and religion would be different significantly?



The reason why I postulate that it might be different is that it's very obvious when Prince is being interviewed that we never get to see the 'real Prince'.

He's extremely guarded, and doesn't like to reveal his darker side during interviews. It's often about God and such. Even during the Oprah interview, just after some tragic moments, he went ahead with the interview but wasn't really open. I wouldn't blame him of course--who wants to talk about such things.

But none the less, Prince has over the course of much of his life been very guarded about his personal and private life.

Where he is explicit is when discussing fantasy (during his younger years) , and religion.



I think Prince would probably have a very complex approach to his own homosexuality (hypothetically speaking) in that much of his persona is built around machismo mixed with feminine energy. But as a homosexual, Prince would probably try to mix his gheyness with something more butch. Prince seems to enjoy the 'gemini' combination of juxtapositions. Being gay and feminine would probably seem very dull to him. But then again, it's not too beyond reasoning that Prince would remain in the closet and play up his feminine attributes as an 'act' to deflect attention from his gheyness.


Come to think of it, Prince may not even approach his religion or persona one iota different if he were ghey.

If Printh was Ghey, he'd probably wear better outfits.

Me too I loved him when I was a kid. I saw him on Batman

Thanks guys.

It's really weird, but the General Discussion folks here on this thread are the only ones who can actually have a discussion without resorting to pure lunacy. And they think GD is crazy?

I'm loving the posts Nik, Ivy, and Connerhawk


Oh and you too johnart

oh and let's not forget that some of the same people that have a problem with the premise of this thread would be some of the same people calling a man gay simply if he dressed as Prince sometimes does. They would never believe Prince or anyone that knows him if they said he was straight.

Really? Did he play a villian?

Unless I'm having a major mentalfart (which is possible) yeah, he did.

A lot of the anger does stem from a certain homophobia in my opinion.

I mean, why is speculating on someone's sexuality disrespectful, if not for a homophobic tendency? I don't by the "It's private" excuse as Prince is a public figure and these same people want to know every other aspect of his life including what size dumps he takes in the toilet.

But I guess if Prince was gay he might actually like this type of speculation. He might even use it as a gimmick even moreso than he did during the Dirty Mind/Controversy days.
