Morrissey tends to encourage social awkwardness as a kind of aesthetic to younger, more socially naive fans.
He justifies the shut-in mentality, and even once added (certainly not anymore) an element of cool to being a Morrissey "follower." For people without defined personalities, this suddenly imbued them with a sense of uniqueness, and it didn't require a massive restructuring of their personality. Actually, it did the exact opposite. It glorified the most self-indulgent aspects of the adolescent mind.
I blame it on the cult mentality that Morrissey often inspires, and the need by many who live in a vacuum to find an identity via a sub-culture.
Many fans who do this are probably not even aware of it. They mimic traits that they think would be deemed attractive to Morrissey if they somehow struck up a friendship with him in an alternate dimension.
Yes, Morrissey fans are that ridiculous.
