Since no one I know in real life or the general public would give a damn, I would get nothing out of making a big revelation. Honestly, I think this would be the only place that would go crazy. Even his Latino fans, who tend to come from very Catholic families were homophobia is very prominent, embrace the fact that El Moz is perhaps not hetero.
Nail on headI think it is common knowledge that he is essentially gay with some old-fashioned guilt/anxiety/self-loathing thrown in.
Everyone thinks they are so smart. The only people that would know Morrissey's sexuality are the one's who've slept with him. So, it's really stupid to speculate, but... If we have to use a term to describe him, he's STRAIGHT.
I'm not trying to shock or oppose you, but this is a fact. I am also not saying he doesn't have "homo" tendencies, but this is nothing new for the entire human race. By the law of statistics, NO ONE is 100% straight and NO ONE (and this is the kicker) is 100% gay. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE. So, knowing this, the question is: What percentage of straight/gay is Morrissey? 50/50? 60/40? 30/70? or 99/1? To know this, you'd have to be in Morrissey's head (pardon the pun). Morrissey has discussed this in the past by way of "masculine/feminine" sides... So, I really don't get why people, even at this stage, desire to BRAND him one or the other and further, why people lazily use the term Gay or Bi. He's made it CLEAR that it's impossible to do so.
I have always thought of Morrissey as straight, but INTERESTED in homosexual...shall we say..."things"... This doesn't means he's gay, far from it. In fact, does it make me gay that I like Erasure songs? No, it doesn't. They are good songs. This interest, if it even exists, we know for a long time and based on his statements, Morrissey never acted upon (nor desired to, really) and seemed to suffer as a result of not acting on these, shall we say, "impulses." Someone mentioned "Jake" and....? So what? People consider Jake to be significant in some way... He took pictures. And? It seems all these little bitchy Morrissey fans, male and female, get it in their heads that Jake was Morrissey's lover. What evidence do you have of this? Because he took some pictures? Pathetic.
Morrissey could in fact be gay and as he has stated that he's no longer celibate, he could in fact screwed or been screwed by a dude. But, I really don't see it. If he is gay, I would be let down but only because how great and shocking it would be if he turned out to be straight? Everyone would be completely BAFFLED! Questions would abound, how can a straight man write these songs? I'll tell you how...BECAUSE HE'S HUMAN. This would make a great end to the Morrissey story, in my humble opinion.
But to answer the question of the thread, "Would I tell, if I knew?" NEVAH!
Wow. Way to get incredibly angry about nothing.
Why are you so terrified of the suggestion that he might be gay?
"If we have to use a term to describe him, he's STRAIGHT". No, he isn't. In the past he has spoken openly about sleeping with men and women and being attracted to men and women, so it's hardly 'lazy' to conclude that he is, at least, bisexual.
No he can't. And he has stated it in several songs and interviews.He can have both.
Johnny Marr said in the Smiths days that Morrissey had previously had relationships with both sexes. Unless you think he was lying too?
Really? What evidence do you have of this? Perhaps they were close friends? Boz is close friends with Morrissey, did they have a sexual relationship too? Two friends can't live together without being gay? You're quite naive. You sound as if you're hoping he's gay to suit your lifestyle.Jake lived with Morrissey for two years.
Oh yeah, he did so with Linder "during that time" (or before that time) too. So now he's straight, right? He also took pictures almost completely naked RECENTLY with his current band, so surely, he's gay and having sex with his entire band, including Boz, right? AGAIN, you're naive.During that time he also took naked and semi-naked pictures of him,
Really? What proof? AND so what!? This means nothing. Guys in college swap clothes all the time with their roommates and are not even close to gay. Again, naive.swapped clothes with him,
And? So? What's your point? So if someone writes Morrissey's name across their chest, post it on facebook, they're gay and in love with Morrissey, huh? Interesting. Seriously, what planet are you from, Ms Fag Enabler?and had a fake tattoo of his name printed across his abdomen for a single insert.
Yes, I DO think it is HIGHLY platonic as you are easily duped. Look at the photo below, regardless of ANGIE MARR, Johnny SURELY was having gay sex with Morrissey while in The Smiths. I mean, look at it, if you think they're relationship was platonic, well....If you think that could be platonic, well....
This interview comes to mind...Hahaha, you're joking, right? NEVER ONCE has Morrissey stated OPENLY or specifically about sleeping with men AND women. Are you insane?
One of my physical encounters was with a man.
Really, you must be in some serious denial if you think Morrissey is straightHas he slept with women? 'Yes. I feel completely open. If I met somebody tomorrow, male or female, and they loved me and I loved them, I would openly proclaim that I loved them, regardless of what they were. I think people should be loved whatever their gender, whatever their age. I am open to everything.'
This interview comes to mind...
Some quotes for you:
Really, you must be in some serious denial if you think Morrissey is straight
Actually, it seems like he did say that here.No, Johnny Marr IS NOT lying because HE NEVER SAID THAT. And if he did use the word "relationships", well, that really isn't saying ANYTHING as we all have certain relationships with both sexes throughout the world and in our lives, if even with a bank teller. Johnny would never dare ever say or elude to Morrissey being gay, not in the slightest. And anything that is construed as such, can easily be refuted.
When you use the expression "physical encounter" when asked about homosexuality, it's pretty clear you mean sexual activity. Why are you so defensive about it?Also, off the top of my head: an "encounter" doesn't necessarily mean SEX has taken place. But I'll read it and get back to you. Thanks for the reference.
I'm not angry about anything, you're misinterpreting things.
I'm not terrified at all. Gay people can hump each other all they want, I could care less. It's his business, but as a fan, I would find it incredibly boring and predictable if he were gay. Morrissey, throughout his career, has been neither predictable or boring.
Hahaha, you're joking, right? NEVER ONCE has Morrissey stated OPENLY or specifically about sleeping with men AND women. Are you insane? He hasn't even said, as far as I can remember, specifically, EVER BEING ATTRACTED TO BOTH Men and WOMEN? Are you insane? The only thing I remember him saying is that he was BORED with both of them.
No he can't. And he has stated it in several songs and interviews.
