Well all in this thread are wondering if any idol might be gay. I don't know if he is asking them if they're gay as an insult(it's not an insult but some people use it as one it's dumb to say smth like that) or wondering about they're sexuality and not because of stereotypes like because they have makeup what is wrong because everyone can wear have smth that they like. Why does it anger fan's? I'm an army and what count's is what the boys think do they think it's annoying that people ask them about their sexuality or is it okay for them. I mean rapmonster seems to be lgbtq pro(doesn't mean he is) maybe he doesn't mind it and sugar, jin, kookie, V, jimin and j-hope maybe too or they mind it we don't know unless they speak up or did they smth about it that they feel uncomfortable. I mean it's not really okay to assume someone's sexuality but that's like saying everyone is straight and that's not okay either.

obviously he's not saying it as an insult, since he is a gay man himself.

 

but his entire career is built on making up fake rumors and stirring petty drama (in addition to being sexist and racist), so that's why i want him to stay the fuck away from bts. 0u0plz.png

a little off topic but i had to get this off my chest: when it comes to masculine guys who've shown attraction towards dudes countless times, yet have shown little or no attraction to women at all (jackson, wonho, ravi, wenhan etc.) why do yall always assume they're bi?

 

compared to more feminine idols yall just go "GAY HE'S GAY" immediately, regardless if they've been vocal about liking girls. of course that could just be compulsive heterosexuality, but acting all alpha male 24/7 could also be that. performative heterosexuality is tightly connected to the performance of gender.

i think the reason for wonho is because he said something like "gender doesnt matter" which sounds a lot more bi than gay lol. what do you mean by show attraction though? i don't think he has actually shown attraction to anyone so far, it's mainly the things he says that make him "suspicious"

but i agree with you, people tend to be biased when it comes to some idols

 

well tbh i don't follow monsta x that closely, so he could easily be bi for all i know, but from what i've seen he doesn't have any interest in girls at all. 

 

here's his (rather unconventional) thoughts on marriage: â€œI have no interest in getting married,†he said. “My little brother is married and can carry on the family line, so I don’t have to worry about that.â€

 

my initial reaction: did i ghostwrite this? fD4JAZe.png  "worry" being the key word, since gay and lesbian people obviously feel burdened by the idea of having to live out a lie to please our family. 

 

also about attraction, he obviously does a lot of gay shit for the cameras that i'm not gonna include since 90% of it probably just fanservice anyways, but then you have his predebut photos

that person in the pics is actually a girl laugh.png his famous tomboy friend. but if you're looking for gay predebut pics i can give you this imstupid.png

tumblr_ofe6t2axCl1uku24go1_1280.jpg

 

but the thing about him not wanting to marry isn't true like that, he said that the wanted to marry, just later. allkpop or some kpop site took it out of context and wrote articles about him not wanting to marry and that's how the whole thing started lol. i need to look for the actual video sometime bc i'm not sure what exactly he said. but he has talked several times about marrying and wanting to be a good husband/father so there's that

 

as someone who follows monsta x closely he actually doesn't ping me that much, like, from the way he acts and interacts with others. he's hard to read because he is very aware of cameras and he tries to act in a certain way in front of fans (he also loves to push his own ships lmao). but i understand that he seems like the more obvious choice for casual fans bc of headlines like the one with the not marrying. overall i do think he might be bi.

minhyuk on the other hand screams gay everytime he opens his mouth, that boy truly has no filter imstupid.png

 

ah okay thanks for correcting me!

 

but fyi, that dude in that pic is a guy, a trans guy. his name is jung da eun.

 

wonho apparently bearded for him before he came out, since the guy had a girlfriend at the time but was still presenting as female (and haden't started hormone therapy yet). idk it's all pretty confusing but interesting.

 

and i definitely agree about minhyun, i've literally had him on my suspect list since no.mercy laugh.png

i think whenever the topic of religion (christianity especially) is brought up, a lot of you tend to project your own experiences onto these idols. but the thing is: it's not comparable if you're from a western country where the majority of the population is christian.

 

more than half of korea's population is non-religious, and all the major religions have been enforced by colonizers and dictators to supress indigenous shamanism. it's not a coincidence that catholics make up the most conservative and aggressively homophobic percentage of korea. it's a belief that's been enforced and internalized for generations in those circles, similar to a lot of black churches in the US.

 

i can't find the data right now, but i remember seeing statistics from an LGBT korean study (from 2014 iirc) that, among other things, also laid out the percentage of which religions gay people identified most with. it was a pie chart and lets just say: the "protestantism" and "catholicism" slices were pretty slim compared to the national statistics. 

 

of course that doesn't mean it's impossible for an idol to be both, but yall shouldn't shut down anyone who brings it up just because it makes you uncomfortable to talk about.

Old post but I thought I'd reply. I hate to admit it but stereotypes exist for a reason. Also rather than "manly, testosterone filled alpha males" equating to bisexuality, I think these "manly men" are just more confident and secure about themselves, and that type of confidence is often associated with bisexuality. Some "manly men" are ping me as gay but are so closeted and in-denial that they might as well be straight, and therefore people label that as bisexuality because they may be attracted to males but you'll only ever see them in relationships with females. It's not right, but it happens often.

 

I don't see feminine qualities being associated with homosexuality as offensive. That's actually the most accurate way to put it, in Asia at least. Please try to consider that the culture is just so vastly different that what is offensive/defensive to you might be of the norm to us smile.png

 

you must know A LOT of gay/bi korean men to feel this confident stereotyping them like that 0u0plz.png

 

in my experiene bi guys are generally less confident in their attraction to men, because when you like girls as well it's easier to brush it off or repress your feelings, especially if you live in a conservative society that expects you to settle down with a woman eventually. so no, i don't really see your point about how bi men are innately more secure in their sexuality.

 

i also don't think it makes much sense to automatically assume a guy who constantly talks about his attraction to men (a la jackson wang) is bisexual just because he's beefy.

 

i agree there is some truth to stereotypes about flamboyancy and gay men, but my point wasn't even about personality or attitude, but rather appearance based stereotypes. using jackson as a further example, he is plenty flamboyant in the stereotypical gay way. but people are still like "nah he's too manly" because of the way he looks, dresses and the image given to him.

unpopular opinion but i think out of all 12 original exo members only sehun, tao and baekhyun likes men, with suho and chanyeol up in the air but  leaning more towards straight. 

 

it kinda irks me when yall say every single member of a group pings you (unless we're talking about shinee) like...

That's me when people talk about bts

Even Shinee Minho and Onew are probably straight, even if i doubt Minho sometimes laugh.png

 

i actually think minho is suspect af laugh.png  but i agree about onyu being the token straight friend (i used to think taemin was straight as well, but i've seen some convincing evidence in this thread that changed my mind)

I'm glad i'm not the only one side eyes Minho like this dude is obsessed with men and like I've never met a man this obsessed with men who is straight 

 

TEA!! honestly i think it's because a lot of people have this bias that an idol has to look like a pretty fem twink for them to even entertain the idea that oppa likes dick rolleyes.gif  

 

for example: minho has showed way more interest in men than say taemin, yet the consensus on here (and everywhere else) is quite the opposite

he's like a hyung collector... imo he's most suspicious with suho, fluttering india opened my eyes to a lot lol

 

bye this is so triggering!! i just remembered all the "hyungwhore" (i just cringed typing that out) inside jokes from their early days... it used to be common knowledge that minho was gay af back then laugh.png  idk what happened that has everyone thinking he's some straight macho alpha male now but

 

time to bring back this ICONIC fanvid from 2010 imstupid.png

 

 

WAKE UP SHEEPLE! OPEN YOUR THIRD EYE AND SEE THE TRUTH! CHOI MINHO IS GAY!!!

if this isn't the perfect picture of gay solidarity, idk what is rlytearpls.png

 

jimin saying no one in their team aside from tae would understand, pretty much confirms to me that they're the only gay members (which i already suspected) and probably not as "out" as most of yall would like to believe...

does anyone know the guy he's with? they have great chemistry together so i was wondering if they're close irl... how iconic would it be if that's his actual bf and he's just flaunting it in everyone's face

i just wanna point out that a lack of sexual attraction could also be the result of depression. as someone who's currently taking really strong anti-depressants, my libido is pretty much non-existent atm, however i'm still as gay as ever.

 

but anyways

 

 

 

[Chorus - Mrshll]
Life sure is complicated
Everybody knows we've all been through tough times
Time and time it gets overwhelming
Where do we go from here
Rise up and take a chance
Break free of all your pain
You're not alone You're not alone
You're not alone You're not alone

 

this is so powerful.... if you really wanna talk about paving the way for gay people in korea, this is the dude yall should be praising.

JK Tiger (who signed MRSHLL to his label and kinda took him under his wing) responded to a tweet about him with this

 

and yesterday he posted this to his instagram:

https://www.instagram.com/p/BX9W5_WBq8F/?taken-by=drunkentigerjk

“The last 10 years during which it was uncomfortable for me to behave normally without medication since my acute transverse myelitis might be the reason I am more drawn to these friends… Woo Won Jae and Black Nine who are having a hard time because of depression, Maniac who is shedding black tears, and MRSHLL, who said he just wants to perform music honestly without hiding that he’s gay…love to these homies and you. Give strength to a lot of people with more great music from now!!!â€

I'm sorry, but despite the fact that this is the ''who is gay'' thread, we also discuss who might be bi/pan and even straight on a regular basis. Asexuality is LGBT. Get over yourself.

 

Also, claiming you're straight to cover up that you're gay because you simply have no other option is something completely different than ''claiming you're asexual to cover up that you're gay''. Added the brackets because that simply doesn't make any sense at all. Why would you cover up having a marginalized and unaccepted sexual orientation by claiming to have an even more marginalized and even less accepted sexual orientation? Y'all are truly reaching. 

 

 

Why are you people who claim to be open-minded and accepting so triggered by someone coming out as something other than gay/bi/straight?? You guys are the actual fucking worst. 

 

I messed up with quoting somehow but basically, I second everything Edelarwen said on this topic. Hoping we can move on from this mess now.

sis.... you almost had me there for a second untill you decided to pull that dumb "oppression olympics" shit 0u0plz.png

 

i wont deny that being asexual has it's own struggles, but it just doesn't compare to the violent homophobia that gets lgbt people killed, raped and assaulted every single day. do you really think ace people are discriminated against on a structural level? that they've been thrown out of their homes, lost their jobs or been refused housing because of their lack of sexual attraction???

but more than anything i find it HILARIOUSLY ironic how shy and hesitant jinwoo was about kissing mino, because if you've watched winner tv he was always tryna cop a piece of mino back then lmao

I wonder why Daehwi doesn't get talked about here much.  His relationship with Jinyoung seems like it would cause more discussion than it does.  I'm not saying that we need to be talking more about him, but just curious why less people seem interested in analyzing him. 

 

Just curious if any W1 fans have any thoughts about him?

 

i think daehwi gets talked about quite a lot, it's just that the general consensus is that he is 100% flaming gay, so there's nothing more to really discuss. you'll be hard pressed to find ANY daehwi stan, int. or korean, who legit believes daehwi is straight. it's kinda just a fact that he likes boys, both in this thread and among casual stans.

 

 

hellooooo! i'm new to oh but I've been a lurker of this thread for about a little over a year. since i finally got the courage to create an oh account i might as well share quick views on my bias group nct. i plan on doing similar posts on bts, wanna one, and exo in the future as i follow them as well. i apologize as i know these types of posts are done all the time smile.png (also i didn't include any pictures or videos because i'm still figuring out how to do all of that embedding stuff haha)

 

nct

 

 

my nct knowledge has been slightly rusty as i have been preparing for school and have been busy but i will give this my best shot from what i do remember.

 

taeil - straight. he genuinely cares for the members and seems to have a good relationship with them as the oldest member but i have never sensed any type of attraction towards the members and males in general from him

 

johnny - i'm still not solid on him, bi at most. his attraction towards women is pretty much confirmed especially from all his predebut crap and stuff although he has said quite questionable things. ex. saying "ten and i took a shower together" loud and proud, and him teasing jaehyun on nct night night. although these examples are not the best and may not allude towards him specifically being gay or LGBT in general, i think we can get a solid knowledge that he is an ally for sure. i think this thread has a very solid general view upon ten being gay and johnny and ten have a very close friendship which is something that should be considered. also johnny is from Chicago which is a very diverse city so i think its safe to say that he seems to be an open guy in general who is open to new things.

 

taeyong - confusing but i can get a general vibe from him. i'm still waiting to really have a solidified view upon taeyong. he is opening up more and more by the day as he becomes more comfortable with projecting his true colors on screen. when nct first debuted i assumed taeyong was straight because he was silent and didn't really do anything for me to get the same vibe that i get from him now. i definitely think that he is attracted to males more than he is to woman. the way he is with his members more specifically jaehyun, mannerisms, lyrics, i could go on forever pinpointing specific moments where he pinged but this is not a full on detailed analysis. my conclusion is that he is attracted to males with maybe having a slight attraction to women as well still but as i said i'm not solid on him yet. i also believe whoever taeyong is attracted to that it is more of a romantic attraction than sexual but that is another post for another time.

 

yuta - straight. idk he never seemed to show any kind of genuine attraction towards males? although i think that it's established that he is an open person so i wouldn't be surprised if he didn't really care about gender in general but i'm not sure so for now i'm gonna go with my gut and say straight.

 

ten - gay. do i even need to go into deep analysis about this one? haha

 

doyoung - straight. similar to taeil i think he seems to have a good relationship with the members but has never seemed to show any type of major attraction towards the members or males in general.

 

jaehyun - he confused me for the longest time but i think its safe to say that he is bi. he has shown attraction towards both males and females. this boy knows how to maintain his lil image but that hasn't stopped his attraction towards males from being clear. regarding his attraction towards males some examples include: ex. his crush on gong myung (!!!), him and taeyong's relationship, questionable displays of skinship with certain members (lmaoo him & ten in chiang mai tho), getting flustered when johnny teases him on night night, these are some examples to name a few. i think jaehyun is definitely one of the most confusing members tho

 

winwin - straight. this guy seems to confuse a lot of people since he seems to engage in skinship with quite a bunch of the members and gets babied a lot but i haven't really seen him display any kind of genuine attraction towards males. the only time i have really been suspicious of him is when he is w/ jaehyun (bc let's be honest yuwin is one sided af). also i'm pretty sure in one of his old weibo accounts he said he was straight so 

 

mark - not straight. okay hear me out now. i firmly believe that mark isn't straight. i had ulted him for a while and before i did i was POSITIVE that he was straight but after starting to pay close attention to the dude it became clear that he wasn't straight. now this isn't really a full out detailed analysis and i believe an analysis in detail has been done before on nct but i'll tell you some things that has happened with him. ex.when the members were doing that pillow quiz thing they had said about mark that he "doesn't express his inner thoughts". i thought that this was something that could possibly be alluding towards his sexuality. this may not seem like anything but what i would like to pinpoint was his reaction. his automatic reaction was "this is weird!" and i have noticed a certain trend with mark is that when a situation involving him alludes at the possibility of him not being straight his reactions are telling as he gets all itchy and anxious about it. his relationship with haechan is something worth mentioning as well as there have been some moments there to consider. i know this might not sound convincing but i've been following this thread for a while and i know this has been discussed but due to my dustiness when it comes to nct (& kpop in general) i cant think of justifying points rn on the top of my head warstarplz.png

 

haechan - i'm leaning towards straight but i definitely accept the possibility of that being wrong because of these reasons. he is one of the most affectionate members and likes to display skinship. he always wants to kiss or hug his members but at the same time him engaging skinship does not necessarily have to have correspondence to his sexuality as he could just be a typical affectionate dude. him and mark's relationship with each other should not be brushed aside as they have been slightly suspicious at times. however i'm going to wait and see with him.

 

as for the dream members i haven't really picked up much from their contest yet to make any solidified opinions or get a general vibe and i think something that contributes to that is the fact that they are still growing and developing. however some members that i will keep an eye out for is jeno and jaemin.

 

 

 

OMG FINALLY SOMEONE GETS IT DOWN TO A T rlytearpls.png

 

too many people in this thread are distracted by looks and mannerisms, to a point where they think anyone even slightly feminine has to be gay. i definintely agree that taeil, yuta, winwin, doyoung and haechan are all straight.

 

on a scale from "obviously flaming" to "pretty suspect", i would rank the rest of them like this:

  1. ten
  2. taeyong
  3. jaehyun
  4. mark
  5. johnny
