Would it be fair to say that her fanbase is very much female based?

If so why not more males? I never seem to hear many males praising her delights and casting adoration.

I don't get it. I'm male and simply worship her. But most of her followers seem to be Winettes!

Where are the guys?

I was thinking the same and I even was hesitant to register here because i thought there would be no other guys. But there are plenty around. She appealls to all ages and sexes

[W1nEh0use]

Glad to hear it Dani.

I'm ready to launch a new and high-profile movement of male fans.

The girls can be the Winettes.

The guys can be the WineGums.

I'm a guy too and I like amy for her talent!! And yeah your right! There should be more male fans!

[suestev07]

Having been a member since 2007 I can attest to the fact that she has a dedicated and strong, ardent male fan base...of all ages...

maybe at this emotional time the guys "speak" less often than the gals

I actually had a female friend who was surprised how much I liked Amy because she said all her songs were written for and in the language of women.

I have to agree that perhaps the male demographic just isn't as vocal on the forums but I remember one forum I belonged to, there were quite a few fellas on them....

and when u look into the audiences of her concerts, there are plenty fellas there too.

my brother loved her(didn't realize just how much until after her passing..he wrote me a lovely card and sent a package w/tribute mag). he hated the way the press treated her.

Like myself, he always loved the rat-pack era and we both used to talk about what a dream it would have been to have seen Frank S. in concert. I remember when he died we both sat up til late in the night watching tributes on tv(Larry King).

so I guess she probably had a bigger demographic w/male fan base that also loved jazz and the jazz standards but they are probably less vocal(considering the demo of age there too).

If you're a fella and you adore Amy....you're a bigger fan of mine. LOL

My bro likes Amy, i know a few guys that like her. Woman like her, coz she's one of us, theres certain woman celebs, some other woman can't hack (think jordan, and so on), then theres some, that woman love, like Kylie and so on, and Amy is is one of them! x

[ChipsAndPitta]

Proud to say you've another male fan right here! A lot of males around my age won't even give the genre of Amy's music a chance. They'd rather listen to belly ache music which makes my ears bleed, ultimately its them who are missing out.

[MDPA]

I am a massive male fan!!

However, with her passing, i said to myself, why the hell have i been quiet about her being my favorite singer? If people think lower of me for having my favorite singer be a female,they can piss off. Even my friends were surprised! But im proud of loving Amy.

I think its very true that Amy sang very female oriented songs but at the same time, many concepts of hers, as well as of course the pain in her voice, are universal human experiences. Gender does not discriminate.

When u say massive, how massive are u over 7 foot?...

Good taste me lil chip pitta

Loads men love female singers stands to reason really, esp if they hot, lol, my bro loves every soul woman there is, lol. x

[ChipsAndPitta]

Also its good from a male's perspective to hear what female(s) go through and think in relationships. To have a talent where you put your emotions into songs is just incredible.

I mean, if i had been going out with Amy and then had a song written about me saying how crap it was, i'd be damaged goods LOL I certainly wouldn't want to have been called a ladyboy by Amy or had my hand held to get the angle right LOL
