Back in the day he came out first as Bi and was married to a woman for a bit. Then he later came all the way out. πͺπ¨π³οΈβπ Lots of celebrities did that in the 70βs and 80βs. Still some doing that today imho, but of course some people really are Bi. There was much more of a mystique about oneβs sexuality.
Gay: News, Memes and Discussion
Welcome to /c/Gay - Your LGBTQ+ Haven
We're more than just a community; we're your haven for celebrating LGBTQ+ culture and connecting with like-minded individuals.
Community Rules:
~ 1. No bigotry. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 4. Keep it LGBTQ+ related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love posts but 3-4 in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.
Sounds like the same path of Freddie Mercury.
Even today, I sometimes get asked if I'm really bi or not. Date and (and sometimes had sex) with half a dozen women. Look at feminine porn/yiff almost exclusively, but date a single guy and suddenly "hmmmm" lol. I get that it's harder for older generations. But is it really that hard to believe that people can really date anyone and that what's in their pants doesn't matter? x3
I know it sounds crazy today, but artists like Elton John and Liberace were considered "light in the loafers" back in the day. Calling them "gay" would have been an insult to their character, so people found ways to dodge that. Not like anyone didn't know, you just didn't say "gay" in polite company.
tl;dr: If you think gay rights suck now, you should have been around in the 80's.
Since when!?
Where is Gandalf?
For I much desire to speak with him
I just looked about another list about "Celebraties you did not know where LGBTQ+" and it starts off with Miley Cyrus and Elliot Page. Truly shocking realization. Lady Gaga, Neil Patrick Harris, even Lil Nas X? No way! I'm scared George Takei might be on this list too π
How did he manage to hide it so well?
Huge if true!
Nearly spit out my drink. Next they'll say that cast of Queer Eye aren't straight either.
