this may seem shallow but, why are all the young teenagers(generally below 15) OBSESSED with the fag rock bands, like GC, and simple plan, and that crap?

i actually LOVE gc! ive loved them since their 1st album! but yea it depends on a persons taste in music. you shouldnt worry about what other kids like-cuz its not like they worry about what u listen to. who cares? but dont put people down for the stuff they like cause im sure youd get pissed if they thought the bands u listened to were fags.

i dunno i guess it just gives them sumthing to do or sumthing to talk about ya kno?

Isn't it better than the obsession with bands like backstreet boys, n sync, and britney spears?

well i am 13. And i love G.C and simple plan! and they arent wat u say they are. Listen older teens and younger teens have different taste in everything. Just accept the younger teens music, becuz 1 person isnt gonna change thousands of young ppl's music taste!

It's just their taste. I absolutely hate bands that consider themselves punk, but have no angst nor are they political in any way. Punk is supposed to be about rebellion, what's so rebellious about singing about relationships, and life styles of the rich and famous? Even though most punk bands are a walking contradiction. "Fight corporations, down with the government, but buy our much publicized cd. Be original and never conform, never follow structured systems, anarchy, but if you don't follow the very structured rules of sounding punk (Power chords, etc.) then your not, even if you deliver a powerful political message and consider yourself punk." To me, the best punk artist was Dennis Lyxzen, one of the ones who broke the structure of power chords and typical punk routines. I wouldn't call them fag rock bands, Mindless Self Indulgence is a little homoerotic and I think they're all right. It's probably just the fad right now. Fads fade, they'll hate them in a year and love something else. Personally, I like most types of music; but rap, country, and pop punk are a few of the exceptions.
If your curious as to what I listen to: Ephel Duath, Refused, T(I)NC, The Dead Kennedys, Mike Patton, Blindside, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Opeth, Liszt, Metallica (80's), Rachmaninoff, The Cranberries (At least the first three), The Beatles, BTBAM, Simon and Garfunkel, Porcupine Tree, Lamb of God, Black Sabbath, The Berzerker, Norma Jean, etc. I think that covers all my favorite genres.

LoL! Because it is a fad! Simple Plan and all these bands are all well promoted on like MTV and stuff after kids see them they go OMG I like like have to get their CD...They are sooo cool! I know it's like WTF!

Its just a stage they go through. Pretty soon GC and Simple Plan will be nothing. Thats like me being obsessed with Nsync in the 6th grade..

To each his own. This isn't an advice question, but I'll give you some advice:
Leave them be. Let them like what they want, and you have no right to go and call them "fag" bands. "Fag" is, as I'm sure you know, a derogatory term for homosexuals. Where do you get the idea that you can call someone something like that when you have no idea as to what their sexuality is?
Let people like what they like, and if you don't like it, don't cry to other people about it.

Well...people like whatever music they like. I mean, there's nothing you can do about it. I myself don't like those bands, but some people do. It's kind of hard to explain exactly WHY people like the bands...I guess it's just they're kind of choice of style with music. (Well...duh. It's hard to explain really.) Maybe people can relate to the people in those bands, never know. Still, that IS just your opinion. And I'm not putting that down at all- I swear. Just how I like my rock bands, they like their's. (Good Charlotte and Simple Plan).

Its abviously how they are marketed ya know! When you see them on all the magazines and on Trl and just MTV in general, to them that means that they are SO COOL! Like im 17 and just adore people like Hilary duff and Britney Spears! I guess i fell into the marketing trap! I think its pretty much just you like it or ya dont! Most people come to there sences when they are older and learn to choose who they like for themselves not what the tv or magazines say~!
