Prince is obviously straight, [i]BUT...[/i]

... what about lyrics in Diamons and Pearls (would you be a happy boy or a girl), or Pink Cashmere (my little girl, my little boy).

A better example would be:

"Have U ever wanted 2 B with someone so much, you'd take anyone...Boy or Girl?"

Anastesia(Lovesexy)

I've always wondered about that one, although it could be interpreted a few different ways, like most of P's lyrics.

You've just not heard and understood the lyrics in Pink Cashmere correctly:

I'm gonna tell U a bedtime story baby
One U never heard before (Every minute, every hour)
I said one U never heard before (How I feel about U)
About a girl, about a boy (I'm makin' U a coat of pink cashmere)
And all their joy

What about that line in "Arms of Orion" where he says: "O Sheena this is such a shitty song/Eye could sure go 4 some hot cock right about now"

I've always had my suspicions about those lyrics.

That line is more easily interpreted than the D&P line.

The feeling of extreme loneliness, devoid of any mental or physical pleasure or closeness.

The D&P line seems way out of the context of Anna Stesia, which expresses genuine emotion - whereas D&P comes across as a schmaltzy radio-friendly ballad - thus makin the line seem odd.

What about "I'll never open my legs again to a man that's insecure" on that Never be another Fool song that he penned for Chaka Khan. Sure, he's speaking from a woman's perspective...but you can read into that line more than D&P or Anna Stesia IMO.

Yeah, I agree that he's a tease, but damned if some folks around here aren't running around in circles to try to tidy up any possibilities that the man is anything but 110% straight.

You know, I just have to put this out there, most likely because I'm in the starting throes of what I can tell is going to be a memorably craptacular flu and my usual gossamer-tongued gifts for tact and discretion are flying to the wind...BUT...

...I'm queer as a cat-fart, gay as can be. And as many times as I've seen Prince's ass hanging out and his shirt flying off and the Lovesexy album cover and all that hullaballoo, I can honestly say that I have never been able to picture what Prince's unit must look like. And YES, I've seen the famous camel toe picture. I still can't picture it. And what's more, I don't WANT to picture it. And what's even more than that, I really don't care whose team he plays for, and quite frankly his whole "ladykiller" schtick is what makes him HIM to me - it's familiar, it's fun, and it's a huge part of his persona.

So let it be known that there is at the very least ONE fan of the homoschloxual persuasion who could give nary a poo about where Mr. PurplePants dips his Ruffles, or if in fact Prince's Ruffles do indeed have ridges.

I'm off to drain my sinuses now.

Make that 2 homoschloxuals!
I've never understood the whole need to ponder this at all. . .plus, let it be known this is another queer who has never found Prince an object of sexual attraction. . .Whenever somebody finds out how rabid of a Prince fan I am, they ask if I'm attracted to him. . .hardly!
