Enough is enough....?

Question

Enough is enough with this whole c**p about Kahne having nothing but female fans. Yes, I know Kahne probably has more female fans than male, but I'm a sick of hearing about it. I don't know how many times I heard a sport announcer say, "Kahne was voted in my the women," or "these chicks have just jumped started his season," c**p like that. I know of many male fans who happen to be a fan of Kahne, and I'm one of them. However, I guess Kahne fans will always be known as females.

I was just wondering how many other Kahne fans might feel the same (male and female).

Answer 1

he has plenty of male fans.  My brother in law for one.   yeah I guess SOME females like him because he is "just sooo cute..."...others, like myself, can see beyond his cuteness to the good driver he is and I am sure will be a great driver and I am right there cheering him on.

Answer 2

I don't remember ever hearing an announcer say that, and I'm glad.  Keeps me from having to spit in his general direction.  lol

Kahne has plenty of female AND male fans.  With the way he's running, he'll be picking up more fans.  What's not to like about him?  Handsome, talented, well-spoken, etc.  There's nothing wrong with him; and believe me, I've looked hard!  lol

My husband was impressed with him this past weekend.  Here's why:   Most of the guys in victory lane were shaking up their Budweisers and spewing them all over the place.  Kasey turned his up and drank it.  Real men don't waste beer!

EDIT:  WG, you mean you couldn't tell?  I just want my screen name to reflect my rep.  lol

Answer 3

it's because he has that "china doll face", in the words of Sterling Marlin. I am not a Kahne fan, but since he has been deemed so "pretty" and then there are those lame soccer-mom-drooling commercials that don't help that notion any.

Good luck turning that one over, at least a bunch of beer-drooling crumbs throwing beer cans didn't give your driver's fans a bad name....................

Answer 4

I totaly agree!!!! I mean it's stupid that people think that!

Answer 5

its like jr fans being hillbillies, i know many jr fans that arent hillbillies,

its like juan montoya fans being hispanic, im not hispanic,

its like all mark martin fans being old, also not true

its like denny hamlin fans being imaginary, actually that ones true

Answer 6

Im not a Kahne fan but my sister is and she likes how they say he has only girl fans i think it's retarded

but thats just me

Answer 7

Well said!

Kasey always gets flack, no matter what the situation or topic.  He is truly talented, one of the most talented in the garage.  However, because GEM has never been consistant, he is not recognized as being one of the best.

And, he DOES have a lot of male fans.  A lot of Bill Elliott fans became Kasey Kahne fans.

Answer 8

Kasey Kahne has many fans of both genders its just more pronounced with females because he is so cute.

Answer 9

Three of my male friends are Kasey Kahne fans . I like him and I think he is a great driver. So what if more women like him he still has a lot of male fans.

Answer 10

LOL, I hear the same thing from my uncle, who's a Kahne fan. I know I'm going to sound a little like a teenage girl, but there are cuter guys in NASCAR than Kasey, but you don't hear that their fan base is all women! You know what I blame?

Those d**n Allstate commercials! Seriously, whoever creates those stupid things needs to be fired!

But what do I know? According to JBM for JPM, I'm imaginary...

Answer 11

I think if you'll do your research you will find that Jr's fans are mostly female too at least that's what i perceive from this forum

Answer 12

I'm a male Kahne fan, and I agree 100%. I like the man because he can flat out wheel a race car, he races clean, plus he's got a great attitude.

And besides, is it really a bad thing for Kasey that the ladies love him? I'd love to have all those female fans if I were a driver...

Answer 13

I've seen plenty of guys walking around with Kasey Kahne t-shirts, hats, etc..

It's just cuz he's eye candy that people think that.

Lynn, you're evil now? Does this mean I get to welcome you to the dark side? *ducks for cover*

Answer 14

Naw there are a lot of Kasey Khane fans that are men.  Have you been to a race?  There is the red Budweiser tee-shirts everywhere.  In fact my brother is a huge Khane fan, he has followed him from the start and has his garage decked out in #9.  

You hear about the girls alot because all the youngins are in LOVE with him.  He is a apple pie cutie so the teeny-boppers have found their God.

Don't let it get you down there are a lot of men and grown up women that are fans of his as well.  Just pay a little more attention to interviews on SPEED and you will see what I am saying.  

Oh and Kahne is trying to change his image into not such a teeny-booper cutie-pie guy.  I hope he gets that done soon.  Kasey is cool and when he won on Sunday crawled out of his car and started drinking his Bud I was thrilled.  He will go far.

Answer 15

I think it has alot to do with the All State commercials. I have seen lots of male Kasey Kahne fans at the races. But you're right. It sucks being stereotyped into one category. Especially when you don't belong to that group. Now you know why I hate stereotypes.

Answer 16

Im a Kasey Kahne and Bud fan and Im a dude.

Answer 17

fans come in all shapes sizes and genders

Answer 18

Who is Kahne? Pardon my ignorance but Is he into sports or is he a pop star?

Answer 19

I am a Kahne fan.  Many look at me like I am just another one of "those fans" but I have liked him since his rookie year when I began to get into NASCAR.  I just picked him as "my driver" because we share the same first name....as I did Casey Mears.    When Kahne's career really took off his second year I kind of dropped Mears and stuck with Kahne.

One of my husband's friends is a Kahne fan...he's a guy.

Answer 20

me and my dad are both fans of kahne so its not all female fans , but im sure it doesnt bother kasey that alot of hot chicks are his biggest fans im sure it would have more advantages than having a bunch of drunk dudes wanting his autograph.

Answer 21

Yeah, I always feel bad for him that he is stereotyped that way. I know he has lots of female fans, but the guy has lots of male fans too. He is so humble and very quiet at times, that I don't picture him as the type to want to be known as some sport's s*x symbol. He's a good driver, and I am glad to see him doing so well again.

Answer 22

There is plenty of  male Kahne fans,  me being one of them, who cares if he has more female fans. I was there at Pocono and saw a lot of guys wearing Kahne hats and T-shirts. Just go with it and keep rooting for the Bud #9.

Answer 23

I know a lot of guys who like Kasey Kahne, and I know a lot of gals who are Kasey Kahne fans.. Look around at the race track some time.. and I saw the pit crew guys spraying their beers every where, yep Kasey dranked his, Yep Lynn I agree real men do not waste beer they drink it...I think its the soccer moms in his commercials that gives the impression about only gals being his fans...

Go Dale Jr & Hms

Answer 24

Yo I'm wit you DOG!!!!!!!

Answer 25
