Manly Gay: Difference between revisions

Line 72:

== [[Video Games]] ==

* [[Star Fox (Video Game)|Wolf O'Donnell]] is going to [[Memetic Molester|tan your hide]]. Wolf is written as a homoerotically aggressive [[Big Badass Wolf|dominant alpha male]], invoking Japanese [[Manly Gay]] tropes along with being a [[Testosterone Poisoning|hypermasculine]] [[Mr. Fanservice]]. To cap it all off, his appearance is accentuated to scream a variety of gay stereotypes, including [[Leather Man|leather]], and (in ''[[Super Smash Bros]] Brawl'') [[Gay Cowboy|chaps]] over his pants, and a just-barely-conspicuous touch of [[Macho Camp]] pink and purple in his color scheme.

* [[Wild Arms 2 (Video Game)|Brad Evans]] is normally [[Gentle Giant|gentle and soft-spoken]] [[Mighty Glacier|outside battle]], and ''would'' be [[Straight Gay]] in his relationship with [[Closet Key|Billy Pilder]], if not for sheer ''appearances''. Extremely muscular and at 7 feet tall, Brad is built like a [[Badass]] tank, [[Rated M for Manly|oozing testosterone]] in every scene he appears in. With buff shoulders, toned abs and [[Walking Shirtless Scene|half his chest always bare]], he's also very much a [[Mr. Fanservice]], particularly in his animated FMV clips.

* [[Street Fighter|Zangief]] is a good example of this. It's not outright confirmed he's gay but many of his win quotes hints towards this.

* [[The Bear]] Community is often associated with this trope, but not strictly so. Bears are only required to be gay ''[[Carpet of Virility|hairy]]'' men, but can otherwise be any other kind of gay trope including [[Camp Gay]] or [[Leather Man]].

* Walt Whitman.

* Anderson Cooper and Bradley Cooper, two ~~coopers~~ rumored to be gay. (Anderson lives with his manly gay partner in New York -- Chelsea.)

* Anderson Cooper and Bradley Cooper, two Coopers rumored to be gay. (Anderson lives with his manly gay partner in New York -- Chelsea.)

* Rob Halford of Judas Priest, the most badass metal singer to ever live, happens to be gay. Everyone [[Transparent Closet|already knew it]], he just didn't feel the need to admit it publically for years.

* Rock Hudson was the picture of manliness in the 50s. So much so, that his agent Henry Willson did everything in his power to stop the tabloids from ruining that image, go so far as to throw his other clients to the tabloids rather than let them get their hands on Rock Hudson's dirty little secret. He finally quelled the rumors in the form of [[The Beard|a beard]] named Phyllis Gates. They married and had two kids, but their marriage lasted less than 3 years when she found out he had an affair with another man. But with a divorce under his belt, Hudson was in the clear. Some even speculated that Phyllis went along with the charade for so long because she was a closet lesbian and he was her merkin (the lesbian version of a Beard).
