STRAIGHT PORN SUPERSTAR JAM DEEN TALKS GAY SEX, ONSCREEN AND OFF

His last movie, Giant, h theaters sixty-five years ago this culture has endlsly reimaged Jam Dean om the moment he died—he is straight, bisexual, and gay; sensive and aggrsive; misunrstood and manipulative; victim and predator; the bt of and the worst. Ple Kael, then a risg film cric, plaed 1955 that watchg him was like stumblg onto the vulgar eroticism of homosexual cisg grounds—“grossly explic, ” too dulgent of boys and their “toerotic” fixatns.

Too often, his negative experienc epted , aggrsive, or dangero behavr, what Bast spected was Dean’s way of takg revenge on a society that wronged Hollywood mors started as soon as Dean ma the papers, whispers that he was bisexual or gay.

A LIST OF JAM DEAN’S (ALLEGED) GAY LOVERS

His stud, Warner Bros., promoted him alongsi Rock Hudson and Tab Hunter, two closeted gay men, as their most eligible bachelor. Much k would be spilled over the years tryg to p down his sexualy—straight, bisexual, gay, asexual all found their advot—but he risted labels, not least bee the labels were tied up bigger qutns of masculy and manhood. In those days, “homosexual” was synonymo wh a mpy, effemate stereotype he uldn’t intify wh.

“I’m not a homosexual, ” he told a reporter who asked if he was gay, “but I’m not gog through life wh one hand tied behd my back. In the heart of the homophobic ’50s, he and director Nicholas Ray quietly weaved a queer love story to his most famo film, Rebel whout a Cse, a movie filled wh qutns about what masculy meant the postwar world. ” Roger Ebert only acknowledged s homoeroticism prt 2005, and mimally at that.

Somerset Mgham read and unrstood, as did future gay activist Jack Frscher. “Jam Dean was mascule; he was blond; he was hot; he was California; he was Amerin; he was gay, ” Fristcher relled of his teenage fatuatn. ”“I’m not a homosexual, ” he told a reporter who asked if he was gay, “but I’m not gog through life wh one hand tied behd my back.

Worse, after the Stonewall Rt signaled the start of the gay rights movement, openly queer men like culture crics Parker Tyler and Jack Babc claimed Dean as an in of gay liberatn. His picture hung gay bars.

Gay magaz and newsletters discsed his sexualy, and San Francis’s first leather bar, Fe-Be’s, missned a statue of a biker that remoled Michelangelo’s David as a leather-clad Jam Dean. A generatn of wrers, both straight and gay, began claimg he was a sexual predator, a socpath, someone who should be shamed for his sex life, which they wrongly envisned creasgly baroque ways. Bgrapher Venable Herndon alleged that Dean had been a gay sex worker for whom no act was too gradg or too extreme.

Bob was married, Larry was gay, but they were always havg big-name parti — I met Ingrid Bergman at his hoe, I met Barbra Streisand at his hoe, they were always grand Hollywood parti. Alongsi Prton this sexy, myster settg is openly gay Queer as Folk hottie Robert Gant as well as The L Word's lovely Er Daniels.
