So I was at a Halloween party last night and a bunch of the girls dressed up like Jem and the Holograms and the Misfits. I sang the Jem and the Holograms theme song with the hostess (Jem) and then we sang the GI Joe theme song together because her best friend called me gay for knowing the Jem theme song.

Can any other men on here sing the Jem theme song without looking it up? Can any women on here sing the GI Joe theme song without looking it up?

Do any other men on here know what Jem and the Holograms, Barbie, Strawberry Shortcake, Sweet Secrets, My Little Pony, and Rainbow Bright are?

Have any of you women on here ever heard of GI Joe, Transformers, Gobots, Voltron, Silverhawks, Thundercats, Hot Wheels, Micro Machines, Rock Lords, Battle Beasts, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Superman, Spiderman, Captain America, X-Men, or Hulk Hogans Rock n Wrestling?

No

I am not! I had two sisters. That is how I know what some of this stuff is. My sisters used to watch Mask with me sometimes.

10/28/2012 7:47:57 PM

Did she paint your nails and have you wear her panties too?

10/28/2012 7:51:35 PM

I don't even...

Is that the year the cartoon was on tv? How do you know the exact year? I do remember Jem and Mask being on tv, but I couldn't tell you an exact year. Maybe you're the one that is gay.


I need some girls to respond now.

10/28/2012 7:56:57 PM

Jem! Jem is my name.. ooooOOOo Jem..

that's all the lyrics I know, but I know the tune

I have 4 sisters that watched it

Barbie: family had a VHS. Barbie and the Rockers up in outer space.
S. Shortcake: nope
Sweet Secrets: nope
My Little Pony: of course, but did not watch
Rainbow Brite: yes, did not watch

It's Rainbow Brite, you fucking poseur.

10/28/2012 10:31:20 PM

I know less and less women are posting here everyday, but ladies I still would like to know if you have ever heard of Mask, GI Joe, Gobots, Voltron, or Transformers. Can you sing any of the cartoon theme songs? Like I said, my sisters watched Mask with me a few times.

10/28/2012 11:33:00 PM

I will admit that Big4Country's pix give off a ~ vibe but I doubt he's gay...

I haven't heard of any of these, also my sisters loved to rent Strawberry Shortcake on VHS when they were in elementary school.

Silverhawks was a 100% port of Thundercats that was set in space.

Same terrible animation, same character types, etc.

10/29/2012 1:02:54 AM

10/29/2012 1:04:35 AM

oh also BTW I've never heard the Jem theme song, although I remembered the series vaguely enough that when an unrelated Jem kept popping up on Pandora, I thought she was related to the cartoon: https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Jem_(singer)

10/29/2012 1:07:02 AM

so gay

10/29/2012 6:51:41 AM

I, too, grew up with a sister...and know a lot of shit that I wouldn't know if I had been an only child or had brother(s).

I thought I knew some of the Jem theme song, but I just looked up the lyrics, and I was completely wrong.

So, in conclusion....

i recognize the names of all but one of these (sweet secrets), but would only visually recognize barbie and my little pony

you'd have to be blind and stupid not to know what barbie is, and i only know about my little pony because of the meme

i wouldn't recognize the theme songs from any of them (does barbie have a theme song?)

10/29/2012 7:28:26 AM

I recognize every single one of the franchises/characters you listed... but I still don't know the Jem theme song.

10/29/2012 8:04:02 AM

Heck, I watched Jem growing up and don't remember the theme song

I watched he-man and thundercats with my brother. And gummy bears (know that theme song). Other than those I watched looney tunes religiously.

10/29/2012 8:24:43 AM

Has anyone not heard of GI Joe, Transformers, Superman, Ninja Turtles, etc?

Sweet Secrets wasn't a cartoon, it was toy jewelry that turned into little dolls. Rock Lords was a toy that looked like rocks and they transformed into robots. Battle Beast was another action figure toy targeted at little boys. Silverhawks was a cartoon that was just like Thundercats. Hulk Hogans Rock n Wrestling was a cartoon in the mid 80s that came on tv on Saturday mornings.

Gummy bears bouncing here and there and everywhere...They are the gummy bears, they are the gummy bears!

That is all I know.

My point exactly! I see nothing wrong with guys knowing the theme songs to girl cartoons and knowing about the toys. I feel the same way about women who know the theme songs for Transformers and GI Joe and know about the toys.

I just think it is funny how so many people are ashamed to admit this stuff and look down on those who do.

10/29/2012 9:33:14 PM

Toys For the Other Gender you say?

10/29/2012 9:36:20 PM

^I asked a 35 year old man at work today about this and he said "You mean truly outragious? I remember the advertisements." That means I am not the only guy that knows at least part of the theme song.

10/29/2012 9:47:17 PM

So a picture popped up on my friend's facebook the other day that said, "Do you know what this is." It was from some site that she liked. The photo was of Strawberry Shortcake, her cat Custard, and a pet dog who I do not know the name of.

Am I the only guy on here who knows her cats name?

11/2/2012 9:40:22 PM

apparently you're a savant for early 90s tv shows

1. Jem, yes. It came on right after some show I watched on Saturdays so I watched it.
2. Barbie, everyone knows what barbie is, it was all over commercials during saturdays. If there was tv show for that, i have no clue.
3. My little pony came on after some show (sliverhawks?) growing up during daycare and we had to watch My little Pony after the fact for equality.
4. The other shows I know existed only because I saw the toys at our daycare
5. YOU FORGOT SHE-RA YOU MOTHER FUCKER

11/3/2012 2:39:47 PM

I could sing you the Jem theme song because Freezepop did a wonderful cover of it.

11/3/2012 3:01:23 PM

11/3/2012 3:08:51 PM
