Yes, probably! She is blonde and seems to be middle aged (which is probably a big hint as to why she does that lol). Like it probably isn't that serious but it bothers me so much. Either say and do that for everyone or don't do it at all. But don't suppose everyone else likes just women and then for him be: "since I don't know his preferences..." It's almost as if they are laughing at him because "he is too obvious".
yes, that's her, I wish people wouldn't trust her so easily

I've read about it too but it's also confusing because if someone says ''I think xx idol is gay'' fans get defensive, like ''no they're not, they can't be'' so what do they want???
They want their oppas to be attracted to them and only them, no other man or woman :jiutea:

They/them
Slightly unrelated, but I saw a trending tweet today that said western Kpop fans tend to consider a lot of Kpop idols gay because they know they can’t have their bias and they’d rather have their idols not be attracted to women at all if they can’t have them and you know what? I think they’re kinda right :jiutea:

I'd agree with this like, ten years ago maybe lol. But i feel like nowadays fans want their bias to be anything but straight because they want them to be not "boring"? for lack of better choice of words. At least that's how it feels like on the stan twitter side of things.

Since Kai is back, let me stoke the flames. Bi-king or soft straight?
Ive been team soft straight for all the padding jacket guys for a while. Not that i couldn't be convinced. I did used to think they were all gay though not going to lie. I just don't really see the vision anymore.

I still see a glimmer of queer energy sometimes in exo in general, but it has definitely died down.

I personally think Suho and Xiumin are at least bi. Suho's whole actor boyfriend narrative is pretty compelling (can't remember the guy's name right now) and that Xiumin/Leo thing was a goddamn event.

I know Leo did say afterwards that it was not a romantic encounter but I mean... would he ever admit it  was? Just a couple homies getting wine drunk and posting pictures where it looks like you're making out? I mean I can see it but it doesn't really change what it looked like lmao and it could all be damage control at the end of the day.


The rest of Exo don't really ping for me (even if I wish Kyungsoo did just like everyone else lmao) but i was never the biggest Exo stan, just liked some members and paid attention to them while ignoring the rest.

D.O I think is a clear case of soft straight. He is very cute but yeah, he doesn't ping. Would love to be wrong though

I'm in the same boat with Kyungsoo. He's on my please-be-gaydar. Lol.

I know Sehun came out as straight, but I feel he still makes the list for the same reason Xiumin does with Leo.

I wanna see more from Suho. He's so reserved.

Ok, kind of a weird question BUT: who are you 100% sure it is queer? Idols, celebs, actors... Or people whose alegations/rumors... don't make sense to you because you don't understand how people don't see it because it is obvious?

For me it's jimin there have been instances that showed that he likes both men and women

The obvious Jo Kwon, Sungjong, Ten, and Key. Sunoo as well. For the girls Yerin, Yoohyeon, and Yves.

Oh really? I didn't know! I always felt like BTS was very straight, for the most part, with RM giving serious bi vibes. Didn't know about Jimin!

For sure!

Has anybody else gone through a phase of thinking literally every member of a GG or BG is queer even while fully aware that is quite rare and then realizing it is probably just stereotypes at play and the idols doing fanservice?

Cause I remember going through that with BTS. I used to really think all 7 members were fruity. I still get videos of them on TikTok and sometimes I do still wonder, but I know I need to relax on those stereotypes and wishful thinking. I have to keep reminding myself that just because someone does sassy things or moves doesn't mean anything.

When I first got into kpop I got queer vibes from way more male idols. There's just a softer version of masculinity that's accepted in Korea (especially for idols) that can be kind of a culture shock in that sense. Flower boys were the majority of popular groups when I got into kpop though so that probably pushed that idea harder to me at the time?

Somewhat related to that topic, I recently saw a post saying how enhypen is the straightest group, one of the most liked comments stating that sunoo is as well. Saying that he isn't overtly feminine and can be masculine. That he just has a sassy personality. I'm not an engene so I don't know much about him but I do watch clips of them on my fyp.
