RIP in 2009

For now, burden of proof is on those making the claim. Anyone who says they actually know that MJ was castrated needs to say how they know.

Obviously, even if untrue, this is going to be a successful meme, because it seems to "explain everything." Always a red flag as far as I'm concerned. Until there's evidence, this is a wild notion.

I repeat my contention that his singing voice is perfectly within the range of a normal male tenor - stylized, yes - unnaturally high? No. There's nothing unusual about it. His speaking style is soft and breathy, but that scarcely requires castration. Has anyone here honestly never heard an adult male with a similar soft-high voice? Happens all the time.
