Did straight men ever jerk off to Cher back in the day?

Her only following seems to be gay men.

I know that my father and uncles, who were born in the '50s, thought she was hot in the early '70s, when she and Sonny had their popular variety show.

They thought she was sexy and an ideal woman but got really weird after the divorce, which was a turn-off.

Of course. Everyone thought she was hot in the ‘Turn back time” video.

The Bob Mackie costumes on her variety show were too flamboyant for any straight man.

The old SF baths used to have a glory hole with Cher's face painted over it. Half Breed would play as you got sucked off

You're asking that [italic]here[/italic], OP?

All I can tell you was that [italic]I[/italic] never did. Waaay too feminine for me, which suggests incredibly high maintenance. But she had a beautiful body.

I certainly did which would make her laugh and laugh and would soon turn me into a sour mood.

Straight baby boomer guys may not like Cher, but most women I know admire Cher, as do gays natch, and younger generations, too.

Cher was always fabulous, funny, provocative, outrageous, glamorous and talented. But she was also always strong and independent. And it just seems to me that straight men would prefer their women sexy and a bit vulnerable, someone they could perhaps dominate.--or at least someone who might respond to their lust. Cher was not that kind of chick. Gay men respond to Cher's glamour and fierceness. Cher always gave off vibes that while she may like straight men, she doesn't need one. As a result, if Cher doesn't need a man, straight men don't always respond to her, and she doesn't seem to care. In the '70s, straight men preferred the classic beauties like Farrah Fawcett and Christie Brinkley..

Cher was attractive, beautiful and sexy. But she didn't flaunt her sex appeal for straight men. Cher flaunted it for herself. Gay men like that diva persona; and for the most part, straight men don't know what to do with it. Cher showed off her sexuality and appeal through her music and fashion--and in later years through her activism and philanthropy. She wasn't waiting around for a man to sweep her off her feet.

Cher had to have one of the all time career upswings after her Oscar win...

It seemed to give her another 30 years worth of work....that and the big single Believe in the late 90s.

She had a lot of duds, but you don't remember them.

Including MTV. So much so, that they relegated the clip to late night time slots.

I happen to think Cher was at her most physically attractive in the 1980s, & early 1990s.

by Anonymousreply 20March 12, 2024 1:31 AM

I doubt it, since there were no posters of her. Every single straight male in the 70s had Farrah Fawcett in her red swimsuit up on their wall.

Well said, R13. I’ve always loved her straight-ahead honesty.

“Three months later I’m a gal in trouble and I haven’t seen him for a while.”

Not a slice of life I remember anybody else singing about (but I’d be happy to stand corrected).

If it exists, a straight man somewhere has jerked off to it. From Marjorie Main and Spring Byington to Mercedes McCambridge and linoleum tile, there's nothing that won't do in a pinch. (The linoleum joke was borrowed from "Buffy the Vampire Slayer.")

by Anonymousreply 27March 12, 2024 3:27 AM

While Cher can be sexy, she's not sex. She's glamour, larger than life and provocative. Cher is fierce and talented. Men don't jackoff to Cher. They get out of her way and stand in awe of her.

by Anonymousreply 28March 12, 2024 3:28 AM

Cher once said that throughout her life most men her age don't ask her out. That's all you need to know about how straight men Cher's age react to her.

That's why she has the reputation of dating younger men.

I don't remember her being a sex symbol. Us kids would imitate her performances, but I wouldn't call that a sex symbol.

That "Turn Back Time" video was awful, IMO. Horrible outfit. Skin-baring, yet unsexy. IN MY OPINION.

Kudos to her, though, for always being able to snag a man.

Cher is fucking torture. Never got her. Never will.

When I was in college, I did a nice thing for my mom and bought her two tickets to see Cher at Madison Sq Garden. (This would have been 1992.) The concert wasn't until September or so, so it gave her plenty of time to dig up some other Jersey hair hopper to drag along with her.

Oh no. Guess who got stuck taking her. It was three hours of Cher changing costumes over a sheep bleating in pain.

by Anonymousreply 45March 12, 2024 2:31 PM

OP -Her image, before turning to acting, was a decent vocalist with a good body and a passable face who knowingly embraced a highly stylized, almost parodic, version of glamour that was over the top even by 70s standards.

While this is textbook catnip to many, many gay men it tends to leave straight guys cold. She actually got prettier with her 80s surgeries and people respected her talent as an actress because it was such a fucking surprise, but she was never conventionally “sexy.”

I do, too. I saw the movie on opening night at the Chinese in Hollywood and I distinctly remember hearing the entire audience take in a collective breath the moment Cher apperaed on the screen riding a bike.

Odd that some here say Cher had a "nice face," when they call Streisand's fugly.

She has never been conventionally beautiful, but she makes up for it with her enormous talent and charisma. Also, I agree with R46: after the first surgeries, her features became more delicate and pleasant and she looked genuinely pretty. However, by the late 90s she already looked like a melting Barbie doll.

I have no idea whether straight men have ever found her desirable (and quite frankly, I don't see why we gay men would be concerned about that), but I do find her deliriously tacky idea of glamour, her acting and musical choices and her devil-may-care, what you see is what you get attitude, to be utterly awesome.

Sorry Barbra @R52, but you aren't just outside the bounds of conventional beauty. You're effing ugly. Still, you're a better singer than Cher will ever be and sometimes, just as talented an actress (mainly, when you're not self-indulgently directing yourself). It's only too bad that you've spent the last 34 years releasing the same insanely boring album over and over again.

by Anonymousreply 53March 12, 2024 11:33 PM

OP needs to go to a forum of straight men to ask this. How the hell does a group of gay men know if straight men wanked off to Cher ?

by Anonymousreply 54March 12, 2024 11:46 PM

Cher said she was interested in A Star is Born....but when Streisand got involved that was the end of that. Just so you youngsters understand the star power of Babs vs Cher, even at the height of Cher's career. Cher certainly did.
