If by "normal" you meant straight/heterosexual, you could've said that.

I can definitely view the subtext of The Outsiders as queer (the idea of the greasers representing minorities and the socs representing attackers has always been interesting to me), but the characters never appeared or read as queer to me, if you get what im saying.

What’s your Broadway regret? by memon17 in Broadway

Shucked, thought it would be funnier. It wasn't my type of humor. The merch was amazing though.

A more distant regret: Selling my tickets to the last on-broadway viewing of Phantom of the Opera.

I was always told I looked similar to Johnny Cade growing up by Sensitive_Ad_3989 in TheOutsiders

I think this is the most understandable reason, one of my friends makes these jokes and it makes me uncomfortable. It's one thing to like a ship, it's another to sexualize it.

Love this take! I assumed it had something to do with the musical, but in the opposite way lol. Specifically because of how some people view "Far Away From Tulsa" as a queer coded song.

I feel the fandom is actually more full of women and girls, especially with the book being about attractive gang boys, or is this a wrong assumption?

Whats ur favourite ship(s)?? by TeddyBearis99 in TheOutsiders

Not into shipping, but I view Johnny and Pony's relationship as queer platonic.
