ON ‘GOTHAM,’ PENGU IS GAY AND LOV RIDDLER; HERE ARE 4 ROADS TO ROMANCE OR CRIMAL BREAKUP

One group was appalled that Gotham would ter om Batman non so abptly by makg Pengu "gay" (this spe the fact that Gotham has never had a strict adherence to non). It means that Pengu may not intify as a 0 on the Ksey sle, the soclogil ia proposed by Aled Ksey 1948 that humans aren't strictly heterosexual, homosexual or bisexual, but land somewhere on a sle between heterosexual (0) and homosexual (7). But Pengu's number is not necsarily enough to label him as all-out gay.

Labelg Pengu as gay, or even bisexual, and rootg for this uple assum that they are a normal LGBT relatnship, and they aren't at all.

Ten years ago, when you uld unt the number of gay TV characters seri regular rol on one hand, was cril that those characters be fully flhed out and not rerce stereotyp to the mastream dience at home. ), but the amount of gay, lbian, bisexual or qutng characters on TV wh varyg backgrounds giv Gotham some leeway to not pict a perfect, all-enpassg gay relatnship between Pengu and Nygma. Did you know “Gotham” character Oswald Cobblepot (aka Pengu) is gay?

WH PENGU & RIDDLER, GOTHAM GAVE US DC'S BT GAY RELATNSHIP

Nygma wasn’t too keen on this ia, not bee he’s homophobic but bee nfirmed his spicn that Pengu had killed his love tert (Pengu’s thkg: Get rid of the girl and Riddler’s all me).

Furthermore, you thk Gotham wrers are shakg up televisn (and ic books) by announcg Pengu is gay?

Oswald Cobblepot also known as the Pengu, is a gay character om Gotham.

Adaptatnal Sexualy - Pengu is typilly straight the ics, but is gay the TV Seri. Badass Gay.

GAY PENGUS IN ‘GOTHAM’: FOX’S SUPERHERO SHOW FALLY GETS QUEER RIGHT

Gayngster - Gay and head of the mob. Queer Character, Queer Actor - Rob Lord Taylor is also gay.

Wh Pengu & Riddler, Gotham Gave Us DC's Bt Gay Relatnship. By stg Pengu and the Riddler as a romantic pairg, Fox's Gotham has given the bt superhero (OK, supervilla) gay relatnship, ever.

Can you thk of any show that would take a character who is straight the ics, wh the same level of name regnn as the Pengu, and turn him gay? In fact, this relatnship might very well be DC’s bt gay relatnship, ever.

GOTHAM STAR SHUTS DOWN THOSE WHO COMPLA A GAY PENGU IS NOT ‘CANON’

The relatnship has s issu, y, but ’s never prented as a “gay relatnship” jt... Thk of some of the “bt” reprentatns of homosexual characters ics -- Midnighter and Apollo for stance -- and you’ll realize there are always some issu, to put dly.

The problem wh Midnighter and Apollo -- wh homosexual characters ics general -- is that most of the time, attentn is drawn to them, or the fact that they’re homosexual is pated as a big al. Even amazg shows like Supergirl, the fact that one of the characters is gay is a big al -- wh plot l alg wh the character g out and how others will react.

Homosexualy n happily ri mps. Thk of the Village People’s YMCA -- a song that appears to many to be a no more than a simple and mpy song, but is actually a homosexual anthem about public sex!

The mastream world has long shunned homosexualy, and even now treats as some strange other. When was first revealed, Gotham was still s first season, and was prented to the dience wh all the flair and dramatics as typil gay relatnship reveals, wh a smatterg of male gaze.

They’re huge, huge villas, and Gotham has turned one of them gay, and the other? What's your guys opn on the whole pengu beg gay and attracted to the riddler? I don't have a problem wh homosexualy at all I was jt batg s place the characters.
