WAS RAWLS ON "THE WIRE" GAY?
Rawls is a married man wh children and a closeted homosexual. In a scene which tak place a gay bar, Rawls is shown briefly the background. In S3E10 of The Wire, we briefly see Rawls the background of a gay bar.
Not once is ever explicly stated Rawls is gay and I love how nuanced the flhg out of his character is.
And we learn one of Lamar’s sutg trips that Rawls is also gay. Gettg back to Rawls the gay bar, that half-send glimpse is lerally the only time the show will ever discs this, though there’s a joke a later season where Landsman fds a b of graffi a BPD men’s room suggtg that Rawls prefers, shall we say, the pany of gentlemen. You n read whatever you want to Rawls’ past and future behavr based on the revelatn that he’s a closeted gay man, but that’s all you get on the subject.
