Jon Bon Jovi is not the only known good looking rock star plus rock stars are known to be sex symbols as a whole so why so much shit for this one?

Why is it cool for a guy to be a Maroon 5 fan and like Adam Levine? Axl Roses was just as pretty so why is it cool to be a GnR fan? Why it cool for a guy to like Elvis?

Musically, The Beetles sang love songs and so did so many other acts. Bon Jovi were never as corny as Nelson or David Hasselhoff (Sorry German Fans).

Growing up I was the bud of a lot of harmless jokes that I've been able to laugh off. I still get some shit but it's not as bad.

For me, I was a fan of Bon Jovi before it was cool to hate Bon Jovi. When it became uncool, I stuck with it and could now sit back and say that I didn't follow that fad. I grew up one town over from Jon. Our towns actually connect and I still drive through it all the time. Because of that, I have always had some sort of connection with them. We have a relatable background. I could still like other music but I don't necessarily relate to the artists. Sorry Limp Biscuit, you are just not my thing.

Musically, I'm a sucker for the corny hook songs. That's what growing up in the 80's was all about. The corny catchy hook and Bon Jovi were the king of them but knew how to take the corny out. Someone dictating weather it's cool to like something or not cannot change what my ears like.

Little by little as you grow up, you realize that there are more and more closet guy fans. You also find guys who didn't like them in the 80s say that Bon Jovi was good back in the day but their new music sucks.... Wait, but you didn't like Bon Jovi in the 80's. And let’s not forget the concerts. There are more dudes at the concerts in Jersey than chicks. Oh yea, they go for the chicks. Sure... Actually, when Bon Jovi or Bruce play in Jersey it becomes the Super Bowl of the state. All hating rules are off.

That's my quick summary. What do others think?
