Enquiring minds want to know...

No joke, he is a beautiful skater and I watched with awe. I don't even like figure skating.

Yeah I think he is, I was watching an interview with him before the actual coverage of the event started, and he struck me as gay. They were shpwing some of the outfits he walks around in, and I really couldnt imagine a straight guy doing that. That was just one example, but yes i think he's gay.

Yessss he is, and he admits it which makes the people as USA fig skating unhappy....they like to pretend the male skaters are all straight

Do you think any less of him as a skater if he is gay? It should not make any difference at all.
Well, it would be shocking if there was actually a gay figure skater...

Frankly, it is pretty obvious, but what I find interesting is how NBC and the other major outlets seem to skip over that very obvious fact.

I found this article which talked about "straight-washing": http://www.washingtonblade.com/2006/2-10/view/editorial/e1.cfm

I know you hope in your heart that he is gay, but face it even if he is you dont have a chance. Jest because you want him that does not mean you can.

But cheer up you live in SF there are alot of peopl like you were you live.

I think that this was a dumb thread to begin with. Who cares if the guy is gay or not. That is his business. He is skating for the US Team and we should support him for his abilities as a skater, not his sexual preference. I think that whenever you have somebody ranting about a person being gay it is an indication that this person is not all that secure with their own sexuality and probably has some unresolved sexual issues to face up to.

I don't care who's gay and who isn't. I may be a closed minded a*hole, but I've always assumed that male figure skaters were gay. My bad.

I think the bigger question here is.... Which American Figure Skater is not gay? anyone....anyone....?

Why should they point out the fact that someone is gay? They shouldn't be pointing out anyone's preference, gay or straight.

That chick named Johnny is actually a dude?

...I better rethink some things.


Anyway, he's a real jackass if anyone watched his little thing last night. He was all like "People are just afraid of the next revolutionary thing that's going to come out of my mouth"

...uh...revolutionary? Like what, sissy?

First I don't think it matters that he is gay!!!
Second I don't think it matters that he acts gay!!!
I watched his short program? it was pretty damn amazing!!! the guy is a phenomenal skater, and looks more gracefull than many of the women skaters.

Having said that I think that his flamboyant nature is quite amusing in a "boy is this guy easy to make fun of" kinda way!!!

OH, and I wouldn't be surprised to see him get implants and skate in the next olympics as a woman!!!

I dunno. Im not a republican. And Im not a born southerner, but If I were both, he still wouldnt be big enough to rape me, and its not like he's going to impregnate my daughter.

...seems pretty harmless really.

HAHA. Then you would be ignoring the totally obvious. If you think living in SF I need RM's help to figure out if someone is gay, you probably think Weir is straight.

I think it is funny that he is openly gay. Do you have a problem with openly gay people? Sounds like it...

I saw his name on 'Today' this morning. Since I don't have to ask who he is, I ask "who cares"???

I saw that Bode Miller, now that I know who is is, messed up again.

Again, why does it matter if he is gay??? Why start a thread about it??? This is way more stupid than our "funny to us" threads.

Once again, I think it would be more shocking to find out a male figure skater was not gay.

The totally obvious is ignored all the time. People don't usually coment on someones preference unless they are gay. I think Weir is straight? It was obvious he was gay after seeing him on TV for about 5 seconds. You missed my point, I don't have a problem with gay people weather they are open or not.
