| Why do Anti-Avril fans feel so passionate....
I would have thought people knew by now.
Well, some people obviously hate her for her fame, but many of us have a real good reason.
In my case, me and my friends have been great fans of bands like The Sex Pistols, The Clash and other Punk bands.
But, Punk is dead.
So, a former cheerleader (yes you read it right, Avril used to be one of those preps she hates so much. she was never a 'true wild child' ) gets herself a contract, dresses up in clothes from Hot Topic, sings a song and claims to be punk. And now, everyone automatically assumes she is.
But clearly, her music is Pop. Well, Pop Rock if you insist, but not Punk Rock whatsoever.
Now, everywhere I see little girls with ties, arguing about 'who is more punk'. That annoys me.
I've read an excellent article, which I think Avril-fans should read.

I don't hate Avril's music, it IS rather catchy.
I do NOT think she's ugly, like some haters say. I only give valuable arguments.
And I am NOT jealous of her fame. You don't see me dissing Metallica, do you? No.
The only kind of fans I hate, are the ones that are very stubborn and keep insisting she's Punk, even though they have enough evidence to know better. If you like her music, it's just a matter of taste. But I'd like to shoot her.
