I respect Mika.

[Finkster]

This is long, but if you'd like to, read on.

 

The other night I started thinking about a lot of things..(mostly Mika, of course). After a while, I thought about something I read on the GMA thread which bothered me a little. Someone made a comment about these girls who would shout things to Mika while he was on stage like, "Take your clothes off!" or "Get naked!"

This really bothered me because I know if someone shouted these things at me, I wouldn't like it and I'd think that person was disgusting. It also bothered me because Mika's family was in the audience, including his young cousins, and they all could have heard what these girls were shouting.

I remember the uncomfortable look on Mika's face as they shouted this and felt pity toward him and could only imagine how awkward he felt. I remember thinking, "They are so rude! Mika's not a piece of meat!"

Then it hit me, I was being a major hypocrit. I have been involved in discussions and in threads talking about Mika as if that's all he is, a piece of meat. I suddenly felt extremely guilty. I felt so shallow. I also felt extremely horrible because of this.

When I first started posting on the MFC, I tried to stay away from dirty threads, but as I posted more and more, and started reading these threads more, I started thinking it was okay and fun to talk about Mika like this.

Now, I realize Mika is EXTREMELY attractive, but he is so much more than a gorgeous exterior.There are so many more things I love about him on the INSIDE and I respect him so much for so many reasons. I honestly think his inner beauty radiates more brightly than his outer beauty.

I don't mean to offend anyone who reads this in any way, shape, or form. I was actually very nervous about starting this thread for that very reason. I love you all so much and love talking with each of you! You're all such great friends, and great people, and so much fun to talk to! Please, don't take anything at all I say offensively, because the last thing I want is to hurt your feelings or to lose such great friends. I don't mean to attack anyone, single them out, or make anybody feel angry, hurt, or as if they're a bad person.

We're all human and we all have our weaknesses, and I have fallen into that sort of temptation in the past, which I'm a bit ashamed of admitting now, and after I realized I was being hypocritical, I don't have any negative or different views of any of you.

I ask all of you to join this thread if you respect Mika for the beautiful person he is on the inside. Think about it, Mika has done SO MUCH for us, the least we can do is show him some respect.

Thank you all for your time. Again, I started this thread as a POSITIVE thing, not to bring anyone down.

 

 

some valid points and quotes brought up throughtout this thread, so that there is no misunderstanding or tension between people on certain threads.:

“i absolutely agree that mika deserves being treated respectfully, and not as a piece of meat. but still i don't think there's anything wrong with feeling lust for him and i also don't think he has a problem with it, as long as it's not too offensive, like the girl shouting "get naked!" or ppl grabbing his bum.” (posted by mellody)

 

"I didn't join this thread with an unrealistic view. It's not always a bad thing to have feelings of an impure nature...we are human beings...it comes with the territory. So if someone has lusting feeling for Mika in this forum, they shouldn't automatically punish themselves because of it. (Although some of the comments made in certain threads really are way too inappropriate and disrespectful, if you ask me.) It's when it really starts to get out of hand that it really becomes a serious issue of disprespect towards a man who doesn't deserve disrespect...shouting out to him with inappropriate comments is really just too much." (posted by Back_flip76)

 

"This shouldn't be about saying, "Oh, I have respect for him, therefore the fact that I posted that I thought that he was sexy after a Mikagasmic picture is horrible." It's not. Commenting on his attractiveness, not a problem, and I can't see why that would be disrespectful of him at all--- Honestly, if any of you were reading a forum about yourselves and people were making comments about how nice you looked, how could you feel anything but flattery? Mika fully knows what he does to people---after all, he DOES take his shirt off during Love Today, and sex appeal is a part of the whole shebang. If he was so worried about the whole sex factor, he would not jump around stage in tight pants with no shirt on. It's human nature to lust over attractive people, and it all comes with the territory of chatting with your friends on here. HOWEVER, there is a line between moderately lusty comments and downright disrespectfully sexual comments.

This is more about saying, "I respect that Mika is a talented man and not a sex object." There's a difference between finding someone attractive and talking about it and being disrespectful. Mika is a person just like you and me, with real feelings, emotions and thoughts. His body is fun to look at, but it's not public access."

(posted by Hannah)

 

 

"Mika is a very touching musician, live and on CD, and I truly believe he's a very talented man capable of sending his music to any audience, and to me, that's the most important thing. That's the reason why he's in this business - not to go around flirting and sleeping with people."

(posted by CazGirl)

 

We clearly don't know him on a personal level, however, I still have respect for the Mika I see. The one that promotes causes such as Global Warming, writes songs to warn people not to have sex too early, and to tell women who are big that they are indeed beautiful!

I love and respect the Mika who takes his time to meet with most of his fans after performances and who just comes off as a generally nice guy.

I don't think we're painting an unrealistic picture of him, we've all witnessed this sort of stuff.

And I'm damn sure that Mika is not innocent, like it's been stated, with the pelvic thrusts and whatnot. (Ahem, the proof: )

I just believe that Mika has a kind heart, and he is my hero and my role model. I couldn't think of anyone else in the public eye that would make a better one. And I agree with what everyone else was saying. My posts were'nt HORRIBLE or crossing the line, but I'd rather not talk about Mika like that anymore.

And screaming that out at gigs, totally out of line.

 

 

So, basically:

Comments about how gorgeous he is are fine in our book.

Comments about the size of his package are not.

 

Some words on respect from purplegrape:

respect

"its a word that isnt used quite enough in our society today. we've become modern and dont believe in simple exchanging of words anymore. everything is taken for granted and we dont find the need for thank yous or your welcome anymore. we'll knock people out of our way and fight anyone we need to in order to get to our destination.

but attimes we'll realize that we're wrong,and when we do, we also realize that there are good people in this world. some of us do care about others, and we help those who have been knocked down be others. we ban together and help those who need it.

and i believe that most of these good people im talking about are right here, and i thank you for coming to show your respect. for talking about a word thats never met my ears in the past three years. for showing me something i havent seen for even longer."

i respect him(mika) but i don't know why i tak always about uzzo:(

i'm sorry:(

[Finkster]

now i really feel guilty:thumbdown: because of uzzo:(

 

Now I feel bad.

I didn't mean to make anyone feel guilty...

[BonjourMika1990]

I'm in of course I respect mika and I would NEVER want him to feel uncomfortable... So, I keep my distance... but I think he likes people who are innocent... people who are quiet and not too harsh... All he needed to do at GMA was smile... and I was happy... All I needed to do was smile at him and he knew... I love the person MIKA not the idea...as a result, he respected me too.

[Finkster]

Aww, that's so sweet!

I got a hug, but it was all innocent. I'm a huggy kind of person.

[sara101]

Now I feel bad.

I didn't mean to make anyone feel guilty...

 

no, don't!!! maybe you're right, i don't want to make him feel this way when i talk about uzzo to everybody, we should ask him if he wants or not

[Finkster]

no, don't!!! maybe you're right, i don't want to make him feel this way when i talk about uzzo to everybody, we should ask him if he wants or not

 

Honestly, I think he'd feel uncomfortable if he knew the meaning behin Uzzo.

Would you like to be on the IRM list?

[AKateisaKate]

I was actually thinknig a lot about respect after Friday, as well. I agree with you on all of this. I was never into the dirty thing, but whatever.

 

That girl was part of it (my thinknig), but above that (she was so insignificant to me, right behind me, actually), the fact that he did SO incredibly much for us that day, really, it meant a lot. I have a lot of respect just for his graciousness. Music is more powerful than anything- looks, commercial, all of it. I think that's why Mika's fans are so tightly bound, and truly nice, good people. We see that, and we respect him. I could go on, but I think that wraps it up nicely for me for now.

[Lucy]

I totally agree with you finkster. I heard those girls as well. I saw MIKA's face and he didn't seem so happy to hear that. I bet he was embarrassed a bit. I love MIKA to death and I think he is such a great looking man. But above that, what I really love and respect about him is how innocent and funny he is. If he ever read this I want him to know that my love is for his talent and being such a nice and polite guy.

[soon-to-bemrs.penniman]

This will probably be a little long, but please, if you feel the same way and have some time on your hands, read on..

Thank you all for your time. Again, I started this thread as a POSITIVE thing, not to bring anyone down.

 

And I promise, if I talk about Mika as if he were a piece of meat or in a dirty way, I'll confess to Holy Johnny ASAP.

 

What do all of you say, should we make a little I.R.M. (I Respect Mika) group? Yay or neigh?

 

 

yay.

definetly.

 

I think everyone respects Mika. I seriously have a ton of admiration and respect for that man ,i can't possibly describe to you how much.

 

(read the "Spiritual Experiences While Listening to Mika" thread if you really wanna know)

 

I think this is a great thread. and it would be awesome if Mika were to peek in here and read what we are and will be saying. I know mika is gorgeous (anyone with eyes can see that), but from what i've seen and read from interview he's an even more gorgeous person inside. His personality is amazing. and i kinda feel stupid for writting this 'cause i don't even know the man.

 

I'll babble more tommorow. (im going to bed)

 

Goodnight!

[Finkster]

Well, I'm glad all you guys feel the same way.

I agree, he is such an innocent, free spirited man.

I admire him for so many reasons.

[sara101]

Honestly, I think he'd feel uncomfortable if he knew the meaning behin Uzzo.

Would you like to be on the IRM list?

 

nooooo i don't want to be on the IRM list:( :tears:

what's the IRM list???????

[Finkster]

nooooo i don't want to be on the IRM list:( :tears:

what's the IRM list???????

 

I respect Mika list.

[Hannah]

Jessica, you're amazing. That was perfect, and I agree.

 

Whenever someone screams out things like, "YOU'RE SO HOT!" when he's performing or something, it bothers me. Of course, I'm definitely not one to talk, as I have participated in many a naughty thread, but I'm not doing it in a serious way at all. I would never ever yell out something like that---that's something that you think and not say.

 

Yeah, Mika's gorgeous and sexy, but there's so much more to him than his looks. It annoys me when people are all, "ZOMGGG I LUV MIKA BECAUSE HE'S SO SEXXIII!!11" Actually, it makes me want to slap the person. I have hormonal conversations on here just like the next person, but it's always in a joking manner and sort of like a little "girls talk." It's always one of those things that I get caught up in at the moment---I just read something and feel, "Ah, the teenager is coming out" and have to make some type of comment on it, but I always feel really guilty about it later on. I'm not a person to be obsessed with a celebrity over their looks at all, but when you're with your friends, it's just nature to do stuff like that.

 

I respect Mika SO much, and would never ever want him to feel uncomfortable about anything. It's so strange, because I was actually thinking about this today. I was thinking: "If I were Mika, would I want to read about girls making comments about my body?" It's fun to talk about, yeah, and even though it's done very jokingly, I totally understand that it's not entirely respectful. I actually think that I am going to stop taking part in naughty conversations on here---I'm past the hormonal teenager thing in real life, so why can't I be like that online?

[Guest]

Did it just dawn on you that he might read the forums?

 

Lmao, just kidding you BAYBAY <33

 

I'm game. Like you said, I understand he is an amazingly gorgeous person. But it's like I was talking to my mom about the other day: you find the people you admire more attractive. When I first saw Mika on TV (I'd already heard 'Grace Kelly' online), he is actually NOT my type at ALL. He's super skinny, curly hair, etc. But... I find him so attractive and alluring now that I understand the soul behind the body, and the mind behind the music.

 

I know I tease about him being married to me, but that's what it is: teasing. I should be more concious of how I say things.

 

In conclusion: Jessica, you're too cool for life! Mika is gorgeous on the outside (which I'm sure, whether he admits it or not, he loves to hear, just like everyone else loves compliments.) Mika is gorgeous on the inside. I love him.

[sara101]

Well, I'm glad all you guys feel the same way.

I agree, he is such an innocent, free spirited man.

I admire him for so many reasons.

 

it's not fair:( i didn't meant to do that:tears:

[sara101]

I respect Mika list.

 

 

a ok, i was thinking it was kind of black list:biggrin2:

i want ot be in , i want to be in:biggrin2:

[ohwowitsnicka]

I seriously need to stop saying the things I say....

 

I'm married now, and I have to act like it.

 

SORRY.

wow on a serious note.

 

i feel bad for saying all those things now...

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

It sums up EVERYTHING I was thinking, Hannah.

I agree, it's all for fun, but when you think about it, I'm sure Mika wouldn't appreciate it.

 

And I was actually thinking the same thing "I'm done being a hormonal teenager. Those are just annoying".

*hugs all of you*

[Finkster]

it's not fair:( i didn't meant to do that:tears:

 

Come with me to confess to Holy Johnny!

It's okay..I feel the same way.

would you like to be a part of the IRM list?

[Guest]

I'd have to imagine he's a little flattered, though.

 

(Not about the pervy threads. If I saw someone online talking about my va-jay-jay, I'd be scared.)

 

But I mean, I'm sure when we say things like "Aww, what a cutie!" or "How darling!", if he reads it, I'm sure he'd smile.

 

Especially coming from hot babes like us.

[JackViolet]

Well yeah, this is why I avoid all of the knitty threads.

[ohwowitsnicka]

It's okay..I feel the same way.

would you like to be a part of the IRM list?

 

Ye... YES.

Yes I do. This is going to be the new clean Shanicka.

 

No more.. ZOMG MIKA SO HOTT MMM OMMGG I LOVE HIM !!!!!!111".

 

No more.
