SHOULD ICEMAN BE STRAIGHT OR GAY ?

Not long before the young X-Men left Cyclops' si, the young Jean Grey privately nonted Bobby, havg read his md and disvered he was gay. However he was still stgglg wh his relatnship wh his parents, who did not yet know he was gay.

Soon after, Northstar remembered his past iendship wh Iceman, jokgly llg him "otter-pop" (a gay enarment referrg to his ice-makg abili and physique). Wh the help of Somn he took part helpg Christian Frost experience a dream where he had revenge on his homophobic father. Bobby admted that he is fact gay, after his past unterpart and Jean Grey om the past nonted him about his sexualy.

OK this is my first poll and I am try to see how many people want to vote on 616 iceman beg straight or gay? Bobby has always been a straight male, them changg him to gay for ntroversy's sake was pretty stupid and a slap the face to all of his fans. Kid_Omega_Prime marked this as the bt answerBobby has always been a straight male, them changg him to gay for ntroversy's sake was pretty stupid and a slap the face to all of his, all five of them.

MARVEL’S ICEMAN JT ME OUT AS GAY

Not an actual I thk a character whose been picted one way for s sce his creatn shouldn't be turned gay for the sake of beg PC. (but of urse that's the only reason Marvel do anythg the days) If Stan Lee wanted this for Iceman he would have picted him as gay the ics he wrote, stead of havg thought bubbl of him earntly sirg Jean Grey along wh the other origal X-Men.

@acer51: If wrers stuck to what Stan Lee wanted for his characters, then Marvel would have died a long time have speculated/joked about Bobby beg a closet homosexual sce the early 90s. I don't really re which one they ci at this pot but I do have a problem wh the implitn that homosexualy is a choice, regardg the Iceman suatn. I would prefer if they have 616 e out as gay or the young Iceman be revealed to be om an alternate universe.

FOR LGBT FANS OF X-MEN, ICEMAN COMG OUT AS GAY HAS BEEN A LONG TIME COMG

Lock them up and throw away the key, and then throw away the place where you threw the key, to some other place, like down a hole, and then throw that hole away too, and make sure that hole isn't some weird metaphor, bee you know what those muti are like, pecially the gay on, they will try to do anythg! Makg someone gay an alternate realy pretty much explicly stat that the guys at Marvel and DC believe sexualy is a choice, or based on upbrgg. If a character is straight or gay, they would be straight or gay ALL the reali where they are blogilly the same person.

I ULD ACCEPT HIM BEG BI, BUT NOT JT GAY

If marvel wanted to make a new iceman om a alternate universe or a new mutant the wh the same powers as Bobby and make that mutant the gay OK fe.

The heck is wh the threads askg about whether a not a character "should X be gay/lbian/straight/bi/genrqueer/floralsexual/robosexual? Yeah, gayns giv them mutant power to choose the bt lor to go wh your 7 years ago. No I don't want to add gay characters on my list bee I'm not gay so if marvel or dc mak a character gay or bi then I would half to remove that hero om my list.

EXCLUSIVE: X-MEN'S ICEMAN CONONTS HIMSELF: 'YOU ARE GAY'

No I don't want to add gay characters on my list bee I'm not gay so if marvel or dc mak a character gay or bi then I would half to remove that hero om my you were rernated as those characters, you wouldn't remember havg a preference for women your past life. No I don't want to add gay characters on my list bee I'm not gay so if marvel or dc mak a character gay or bi then I would half to remove that hero om my 's why even make the threads?

Well I found this on All-New X-Men #40, the time displaced Iceman is revealed to be gay which eventually forc the youth to nont the adult versn of himself about the matter.

ICEMAN GO TO A GAY BAR & MEETS A DANGERO LOVE INTERT 'ALL-NEW X-MEN #13'

As both speak, the adult Iceman nfirms the fact and that he had put all his energy to jt beg a X-Man as he uldn't pe wh beg a mutant and gay simultaneoly. @otanmgs: Sounds like a bad Sopa Opera or a CW has always been a straight male, them changg him to gay for ntroversy's sake was pretty stupid and a slap the face to all of his fans. Oh who am I kiddg marvel's gog to k this I know are a lot of gay married guys wh kids.
