This is an interesting thread and I am wondering, as a straight male who is a huge Jewel fan, to the other straight males here, do you get the automatic GAY stamp when mentioning Jewel?

Everyone used to tell me that liking Jewel as a male was a gay thing so I can relate somewhat.

No I don't think so Gary, because anyone who at least knows some of Jewel's songs and a bit about her knows that she's an intelligent thinker. And well her fans are the same. What's not to love about anyone who's smart AND can think for themselves????

I'm not saying I care really, it's just annoying some times. I want to tell people to stfu a lot of the time. But most people really don't know much about Jewel so they just think oh he listens to lillith fair crap or something, and it's not even like that. Like we discussed in the other thread, I see her as like a spiritual icon sort of. And yeah not all of her music is spiritual in nature but it's just great writing and poetry, but I guess that sort of music really is dead in this day and age. SEX and MONEY are obviously taking over

im gay myself and i find here in rolling Indiana, that the str8 people call me out for listening to Jewel as gay. The gay people then think its "wierd" to listen to Jewel. Im caught in a trap. I get no Jewel love.

Jewel has universal fans and that's another great thing about her music. She doesn't discount anyone for enjoying her art.

I tihnk people who judge you based on the music you listen to aren't worth knowing coz their clearly shallow.

Hi everyone,i am a straight married guy living in Glasgow,Scotland,and to be honest,i find that nearly everyone that i tell about Jewel have no idea who she is,so i try to suggest a couple of websites to check out,and some CD's to listen to,as i really feel i want to get them into the Jewel experience,i feel they are missing out.
Because Jewel is a sexy looking female,i find that my mates probably reckon i just like her because she's a babe,so they certainly don't think it's gay to like her.Obviously i like her for her amazing lyrics,poetry,her music in general,and her captivating performances,but i do think she's a babe into the bargain.
I have only found 2 other people in my area that i know of who are Jewel fans and they are both straight males in their mid-twenty's,so i don't find there is any particular gay opinion going on,but i must say that i can imagine that some people will have that attitude because a guy is into a female artist in a big way.
It's up to all Jewel fans to try to educate these kinds of people,and show them what she is all about,as once somebody has watched her perform a song live,like the Live at Humphrey's DVD,i defy them not to be hooked,she is irresistable.
So,whether you are gay or straight,or anything else for that matter,as long as you genuinely appreciate the whole Jewel vibe,who cares what the non-Jewel fans think,it's them who are missing out.
Cheers everyone !!!

that's awesome "but i do think she's a babe into the bargain" I love that ha ha yes she is. Matter of fact my wife was telling me how her boss @ work was showing her this picture on his computer of a girl w/ a big booty who was white (her boss is black) and he was like there's no white girls that look like that. So she is going to pull up my myspace page with the picture I made from the intuition video to show him Jewel's "thickness" ha!

I'll just have to agree with that and declare myself as a straight woman to answer the question of this topic (a kinda funny thread by the way).

I'll have to disagree with that statement lol cause I'm French and I love Jewel. But it's true that she isn't famous here, sadly.
Are you French too?
