Creativity Quote by GG Allin

"I've had women who move to the towns I'm living in, just pack up and move there, never even met 'em before, 'cause they heard I lived there"

About this Quote

Allin delivers this like a grim little victory lap, but the brag curdles on contact. The line isn’t really about romance; it’s about gravity. Not emotional gravity - notoriety. He’s describing fandom as migration, women as proof-of-concept that the GG Allin myth travels farther than he does. The casual “never even met ’em before” isn’t incidental; it’s the punchline. It turns intimacy into logistics, desire into a forwarding address.

The intent is twofold: to inflate his legend and to dare you to flinch. Allin built a career on public transgression, treating disgust as marketing and self-destruction as performance art. In that ecosystem, “women who move” functions like a tour review: evidence that the spectacle works. He’s not saying he’s lovable; he’s saying he’s unavoidable.

The subtext, though, exposes a bleak transaction. These women aren’t individuals in his telling; they’re accessories to the persona, interchangeable bodies confirming that fame can override basic safeguards. That’s part of the provocation: Allin frames the dynamic as flattering, but it also reads like an indictment of how celebrity scrambles consent, boundaries, and common sense. Even the folks who “never met ’em before” are already in relationship with the character.

Context matters: pre-internet word-of-mouth celebrity, underground scenes, and a performer whose brand was antagonism. The quote captures an era when myth traveled through flyers, zines, and stories - and when being infamous could feel like being magnetic. Allin’s genius, if you can call it that, is making that magnetism sound like a warning while insisting it’s a flex.
