Thanks for the enlightenment and cliched eye roll. My point is that many women who seem to lack the ability be attracted to androgyny assume that person must be gay/bi. It's really tired. |
Prince parties here: http://dcist.com/2016/04/prince.php |
Where did anyone say that they should be written off? You're seriously over-stretching here. |
He wasn't remotely androgynous. He was camp. |

I feel for those with issues, struggles, addictions (or otherwise) that people deal with internally. My sympathies are all yours.
What I do NOT feel sorry for, are people who have issues, struggles, addictions (etc) and take it out on other people. You do not get my sympathy. Nope. Whatever Prince seemed to be dealing with, he seemed like a good person, and did a lot to help elevate others. |

Holy crap, THANK YOU!! I still can't believe it. Sucks so bad!! |
+2. I've never been super sad about the death of a celebrity before. Just listened to Purple Rain for the first time since hearing of his death yesterday--fuck. . Such a shame--he was so talented and did so much for people even outside of music.

This CNN clip touches on some of the charitable work he was involved in.

| So sad. I just saw a video of him the other day and was thinking he still looks good. He is up there with Elvis as one of the great charismatic music legends of all time. I remember When Doves Cry being played over and over again at the pool when I was a kid. I think that was the first song I ever memorized all the words and squeals to. RIP. |
I think the fact that he wore heels, Ruffles, make up, changed his name to a symbol that embodies males and female, and has a persona of being super sexually charged might be enough to lead someone to the suspicion that he was bi. |
Look at David Bowie. |
