Why do girl fans go completely nuts sometimes?

I'm not saying all girls are like this, and I'm betting most girls on the Shroomery are not this way, but maybe some ladies could comment on this.
(Below is the same question asked by someone else, I'm just posting it because he worded it very well)
Why do young girls go absolutely crazy in the presence of musicians/rock stars? I was watching a show about Justin Bieber with my daughter this evening. Almost every girl he came near would either cry, scream, shake, pass out, or in some other way lose total self-control. Over the years, I remember seeing the same responses from girls on videos showing live Beatles concerts, Elvis, Michael Jackson, Hansen Brothers, etc.. As a matter of fact, any rock star that I can think of seems to have the same effect on females, mostly younger ones. So this got me wondering. While there are probably a few examples of boys acting this way, I can honestly say that I've never personally seen it. I can't even imagine ever feeling that way when I was a kid. I met Heather Thomas at a fundraiser when I was 12 (of whom I had a bikini poster hanging on my door) and was VERY excited. But nowhere close to crying, screaming, and certainly not passing out. I shook her hand, got her autograph, and that was that. I even asked a couple buddies about it, and they said the same thing; they've never seen a boy act that way either. Obviously, I'm well aware that there are always exceptions when you are talking about millions of people. So, there's no need for some woman who thinks I'm being sexist to jump in and say that "boys do it too!" For the most part; no, boys absolutely do not do it too. So don't waste your time trying to convince me otherwise.
Sure, any heterosexual boy would love to be near the female singer/actor of his dreams...but 99 out of 100 of them wouldn't cry, scream, shake, or pass out like so many young girls seem to do when the boy-band of the month is on stage in front of them
So my question is this: is there some sort of innate lack of self-control that completely overwhelms girls when they come near a famous individual with whom they have a crush? What explains this phenomena? Any studies out there? I find it pretty unsettling that today's girls are effected by this type of thing. I figured with more emphasis on girls and boys being equal, and society's paradigm shift from girls being the weaker sex in the past, to being the equal sex today...we would see less of this. But maybe this is one example of inherent differences between the sexes that's environmentally independent? Anyway, I'm at a loss.

I think it is actually an instinctual sexual response young girls and women have when they meet the man of their dreams who is usually some famous iconic star.
These Bieber and One direction fans are usually preteen and teenaged girls that have posters of them everywhere on their room, obsess over everything they do, they literally want the dick so bad without even realizing it.
I do think it is a sexual thing cause the same response would not happen for a girl being a fan of a girl singer. It really is a girl meeting the boy of her dreams and having an involuntary orgasm from excitement.
What separates guys from girls too is guys like some of these female pop singers cause they are hot and they want some ass. These girls though are wanting to get laid by the iconic male pop stars too but they also picture having a family and getting married so they are pretty much in love in the most annoying way possible.
Does that make any sense to you bra?

This female behavior has always been one of my arguements for the concept that (for the most part) the female sex is the hornier sex.

I really do think that through evolution, women are designed to be searching for a dream man to pass on the best DNA to the next generation. It makes sense that guys are mostly in it for the quick lay and to move on and that women are more emotionally attached to one specific person.
Maybe this is sexist but it makes sense to me.

It happens to girl singers too.... Look up beyonces crazy fans, or Britney Spears, or lady gaga.... Girls do the same thing for them, sometimes with complete disregard for the feelings of the performer who is trying to escape before getting crushed.

I've noticed the same thing with sports. Most women aren't super into sports, but sometimes when they do get into it they get really, really into it with extreme emotional investment. A similar thing also happens with Christian women. Their devotion sometime resembles romantic love. I call is lust for Jesus.
