Line 44:
* Narumi from [[Gakuen Alice]]
* Kazuma aka Sheila from ''[[Aishite Night]]''. He's very feminine-looking and crossdresses when on stage... and he's also [[Happily Married]] to his manager Marimo and has a daughter with her.
* Due to the frequent amount of [[Ho Yay]] found in the series, several characters from ''[[Code Geass]]'' could easily be mistaken for gay due to their... ''theatrical''... [[Large Ham|mannerisms]]. Especially Lelouch, who is ''[[Memetic Mutation|
** Being a chick magnet doesn't prove your interest. We didn't see Lelouch having interest in girls before the infamous "comfort me" scene in R2 (there is also the siscon interpretation, of course). Take this scene from the show, and Lelouch can be gay or asexual.
*** You're forgetting several of his scenes with Shirley and C.C., not to mention calling Euphie his "first love". The asexual or "hetero, but emotionally fucked up" angles seem most likely overall.
Line 66:
* ''[[The Fifth Element]]'': Ruby Rhod is flamboyantly camp but also a voracious sex machine to the ladies. To a large extent, an [[Affectionate Parody]] of [[Prince]], below in [[Real Life]].
* Hedley Lamarr from [[Blazing Saddles]]. A buffoonish [[The Dragon|Dragon]] with Ambiguously characteristics, likes women. [[Depraved Bisexual|He's, at least, Bi]].

** Don't forget how he [[What Do You Mean Its Not Symbolic|molests the statue of Justice]].
* Played [[Incredibly Lame Pun|straight]] in ''[[Snakes on a Plane]]''. The sole male steward is highly effeminate, and all his co-workers roll their eyes when he talks about his 'girlfriend'. When they finally land, the first thing his does is make out with his incredibly hot girlfriend...who is just as Camp as he is.
Line 94:
* ''[[Monty Python's Flying Circus]]''
** In the sketch "Biggles Dictates a Letter", Biggles (Graham Chapman) asks Algy (who is sort of a [[Sergeant Rock]]) and Ginger ("camp flying gear, sequins, eye make-up, silver stars on his cheeks") if either is gay. Algy is the [[Straight Gay]], while Ginger is the Camp Straight. The latter is lampshaded by Biggles.

** Eric Idle played [[Camp Gay]] or [[Ambiguously Gay]] roles (or at least slightly effeminate ones), but is in fact straight.
* [http://www.nndb.com/people/384/000049237/ According to the NNDB], Christopher Lowell is straight, but acts flaming because he knows no-one would believe an interior designer isn't gay, and wanted to preempt the ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' jokes.
Line 119:
* Martin Short's [[Fat Suit]] character Jiminy Glick is flamboyantly fey, and married...and prone to give too much information talking of physical relations with his wife.
* In ''[[The Nanny]]'', Fran meets a pretty-boy male nanny, and assumes he must be gay. Her reasoning: "For one, [[Incompatible Orientation|I was instantly attracted to him]]!" Then, as she's trying on clothes in front of him, he starts kissing her.

** [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: Fran Drescher and her real life husband divorced after 20+ years of marriage. He later comes out as gay. They are still [[Platonic Life Partners|best friends]].
* [[Friends|Chandler Bing]] is consistently mistaken for gay (he has a "quality"). As the show progressed, his character became more and more feminine. The show's creators pondered whether to out him, but in the end decided he was just metrosexual before that was cool.
Line 171:
== [[Web Comics]] ==
* Noah in ''[[El Goonish Shive]]''. Elliot has trouble pegging him as a guy at first and is astonished to hear he has a girlfriend.

Line 179:
* ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series|Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series]]''
** Pegasus is, believe it or not, even more flamboyant than in the source material. He actually tries to kil - uh, [[Never Say "Die"|send Yugi's friends to the Shadow Realm]] when they discover he's straight lest his secret get out (which makes him a closet heterosexual). In contrast, his servant Croquet is a [[Straight Gay]].
{{quote|
** Also [[Butt Monkey|Bakura]], in contrast to [[Straight Gay]] [[Super-Powered Evil Side|Florence]].

'''Florence:''' I'm not British, I'm just gay. }}
* Hoity Toity moves from "camp" to "camp straight" in the ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' fanfic "Dance 'Til We're High". Twilight's first thought after Rarity admits that's who she's dating is "''Hoity Toity likes mares?!''"
