NOT GAY: DEAN WCHTER AND BISEXUALY
To DeSantis, if you are gay, you are not allowed to be a part of the nservative movement. * dean is not gay *
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.
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.

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.

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.
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.
KEN HAS ALWAYS BEEN BARBIE’S GAY BT FRIEND—NOT HER BOYIEND
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. Bisexualy still is, to this day, a very misunrstood and/or beltled sexualy, ually associated wh the gettg-old "'s jt a phase" or " is an exce not to e out as gay/lbian".

And 's te, bisexualy has been a eful getaway for many gay/lbian people, both on TV and real life - watch Dan Howell's credible g-out vio for that. However, as Dan says himself, jt bee bisexualy has been ed by homosexual people to navigate the trici of their own sexualy before fally g-out as gay or lbian, do not mean that bisexualy is a fict sexualy, as many people still believe.

The list also clus characters that have e out as pansexual - even though pansexualy and bisexualy are two different thgs - and homosexual characters havg dated people of their oppose genr as part of their ternalised when to bisexual reprentatn on TV, we n also realise that male bisexualy has clearly been unrreprented the favour of their female unterparts; a trend that is far om beg rolved over time, on the ntrary. See below a chart showg the proportn of male and female bisexual characters on TV per of televisn, based on the "List of televisn seri wh bisexual characters" of showg the proportn of female and male bisexual characters on TV over time(It has to be noted that I have not unted this chart characters that have explicely e out as pansexual, and characters that are clearly homosexual but have dated their oppose genr before: puttg inic lbian characters such as Santana Lopez om 'Glee' or Cheryl Blossom om 'Riverdale' this would have been que disrpectful to them and their muny.
The send trend is: there are far more female bisexual characters on TV than male reason for this is somethg that more and more people bee aware of: that bisexual men are basilly seen as gay when bisexual women are basilly seen as straight. We need more bisexual male characters, and we need more diverse stori of bisexual male characters: not the gay man that wonrs how female breast feels like, not the pansexual man that is nsired as bisexual bee pansexualy is still visible; but a man that shows explice attractn to both bary genrs, even unequally, but that has trouble g to terms wh this particular sexualy. Dean Wchter is a unique opportuny to show how a g-out n take years before happeng, how someone their forti n e out jt now bee they have lived s of reprsed feelgs bee of ternalised homophobia and biphobia.

It is an experience that too many bisexual people real life have lived: to unrstand and accept that your attractn to one genr do not negate your attractn towards the oppose one; and bee the outsi world is way nicer to straight people than homosexual on, you jt pretend your straight and ny the other part. John Wchter has never been clearly characterised as homophobic or biphobic, and perhaps he would have accepted Dean's bisexualy whout any problem; we will never know as we will never see Dean e out to his father, the latter beg ad. Most bisexual male characters on TV, when they are not eher pansexual or "the gay guy that wonrs what feels like wh women", are ually portrayed as men wh jt a big sexual appete.
This ia is due to, once aga, the nceptn of bisexual men as basilly gay, as I have argued the first part of this article. The story is wrten om Sam’s pot of view, and two of the thgs which Sam unts as “evince” of Dean’s bisexualy the fic—knowledge of a gay bar lled “Purgatory” and “forced lghter when Sam had mentned him lookg butch”—are drawn om non elements.
However, he still emphasiz that he is “not gay” and seems to shy away om discsg his relatnships wh men on romantic terms.

Other non male characters are also picted as bisexual and gay this fic, but the thgs rema “unspoken”, parallelg the way mastream media shi away om explic reprentatns of LGBT+ characters. There’s one problem for DeSantis, though: I am a gay woman. Ltle did I know DeSantis was farther to the right on issu that meant the most to me and the more than 70 percent of Amerins who support gay has ma clear the past few weeks that he’s more terted appeasg Twter trolls who abhor any Amerin who intifi as LGBTQ+.
To DeSantis, if you are gay, you are not allowed to be a part of the nservative movement. If Tmp was someone who don’t support the movement, DeSantis is an all-out gayns has nothg to do wh the fact that Florida is a boomg state an otherwise lacklter enomy. That beg said, DeSantis has ma abundantly clear that he do not support gay Amerins regardls of whether they support his nservative I first enuntered DeSantis durg his bold stance agast COVID mandat earlier this year, I was generally pleased wh the Florida ernor.
It beme evint that DeSantis was not the champn of dividual eedoms and rights that I had hoped anti-gay rhetoric and actns are not only eply hurtful to LGBTQ+ Amerins like myself but also tarnish the image of the nservative movement. DeSantis’ stance on LGBTQ+ issu not only ntradicts nservative valu but also reflects a severe disnnect om the majory of Amerins who support gay rights. Acrdg to polls, over 70 percent of Amerins support gay marriage, and this number ntu to rise.

By disregardg such a signifint portn of the populatn, DeSantis reveals a ncerng lack of unrstandg of the evolvg societal norms and a gay woman, my sexual orientatn is jt one aspect of my inty, and should not fe my polil beliefs or my place wh the nservative movement. DeSantis mt regnize that his anti-gay rhetoric is not only harmful to LGBTQ+ Amerins but also trimental to the very prcipl he claims to uphold. If he tly aims to lead the nservative movement and brg about posive change for all Amerins, he mt abandon divisive tactics and foc on polici that promote uny and far, he is only losg everyday Amerins, cludg many nservativ like myself, through his disgtg anti-gay rhetoric.
It is important to note that the same-sex soc-sexual behavr observed the study is distct om homosexual behavr bee s motivatn and purpose are social, said Jean-Baptiste Le, who studi primate behavr at the Universy of Lethbridge Canada and was not volved the new rearch.
