My Chemical Romance is a "pussy gay guys band".
My friend, Jackson, he copped a tun of shit for liking them.
He just generally thought they were sweet.
Until he started to pretend he hated them.
Pretty hard when you have a pic of them glued to your maths text book. xD

Freddie Mercury!:
A kid has the nerve to walk up to me and say "My Chemical Romance is for girls, what are you, a fag?" and i replied with "You're half right."

There ARE straight guys out there that like this band. They don't sing about love and bunnies and happy magical rainbow worlds with ponds of lime jello and gumdrop castles. No. Thats not MCR. My Chemical Romance is a BAND who makes MUSIC for EVERYONE. UGHH.


First of all, Freddie, you are very brave for telling that kid you are bi (even if you're not.) That couldn't have been easy, and I am proud of you Smile

Second of all, of COURSE there are straight guys who like MCR. My son is straight - he turned me onto the band. He will even wear a tee shirt or hoodie to school with their logo on it. I've asked him: he says the kids in his school don't really hassle anyone about MCR, like I've been hearing from you guys that they do. I'm glad to hear that from him, but very sorry for you all Sad

And lastly: your comment about rainbows and gumdrops made me LOL

My friend, Noah, is really into hardcore straight edge stuff and when I told him I was into MCR he made fun of me but then I burned a CD for him with MCR songs on it and he was like "Who was that on track 4?" and when I told him it was MCR he was all "wow, I never knew they were so good" and now hes a HUGE MCR fan. I think that people say they dont like them when they haven't even heard any songs except for the singles. Its like saying you don't like broccoli when you haven't even tried it.

LOL that's fucking awesome.

Anyway, why the hell do people think that only one type of people can like a band? Or only girls can like MCR? That's rediculous. And no one's gonna tell me who I can like or not like to listen to.

Kudos to you Freddie for sticking up for yourself and MCR.

Freddie Mercury!:
Then he just says "Oh whatever, MCR is still wicked gay." And my last words were "Actually, they're kind of depressive..."


Haha, you're awesome.

Anyways, I know guy MCR fans, I've seen quite a lot of them on absolutepunk (I lurk there). I know about the stereotype because the journalist and mags are always mentioning MCR fans as 'black swarms of screaming teenage girls', totally ignoring the guys and non black wearing peopel there (that's slowly changing though, thankfully). It doesn't help, and I think it even makes some guy (and girls) embarrassed for liking them because other people who read these mags will judge based on that, which is stupid imo.

But, glad to hear you're an outspoken fan. Smile There should be more fans like you.

FANGIRLS. Obviously. I feel a bit silly saying it, but hey, even though I'm 20, I get a bit fangirl now and again. I mean, for me, it's always been about the music, but their good looks can't be denied.

Yeah, the sad thing is that all the endless fangirls squeeing and swooning at anything MCR related has set up the stereotype. If i were i guy, i'd probably be kinda reluctant to get into a band if i saw girls squealing about some guy named 'Gerald Wayne' and ranting on about how hot he is.

I think it's a real shame that guys are being persocuted and made to feel ashamed by liking MCR. It makes no sense whatsoever.
But good on ya for sticking up for yourself. I think, maybe, if more guys who like MCR would do the same instead of getting embarrassed some guy might actually think 'Hey, maybe it's okay to like this band and it's not just for girls.' and more and more guys would listen to them. I know i must sound incredibly naive right now but, hey, it could happen.

Nothing wrong with being a fangirl, everyone here has to admit that the guy's are goodlooking, and they probably do have there gay fan's too.
But the band create music for whoever wants to hear it, not because they are gay... Though considering that one is married, one is engaged and the other three have girlfriends I think it might be hard to queeze in a boyfriend in there too.
