Although those techincally are "boy bands," nobody refers to them as "boy bands"😛
Nobody's used that term since the 90s...I think when you hear that term, you immediately think, "cheesey pop music"

nope they are known as boy bands....i don't know what ur talking about...

maybe this'll help:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boy_band

The term "boy band" refers specifically to pop music...this list does include All American Rejects (although I disagree with that...they're more punk/rock than pop), but the other ones you listed, most people don't consider "boy bands"

The article mentions that there's a bit of a negative connotation with the term-(like being for teenyboppers and such) I think most of the band you listed would be slightly offended if anyone called them a "boy band"😆

Anyway, it doesn't matter all that much...it was just an observation, really😛

thanks for that but

wikipedia isn't a reliable source since it can be made by anyone....anyone can send in their opinions and post what they want on there...

i dont' think they would be offended because in concerts and such they call themselves boy bands....
