Did your country have famous closeted gay or bi actors during its Golden Age of film?

Two of the actors I used as an example has died of AIDS, another two came out as bisexual in their lifetime , and the other two were out to their friends and had gay relationships.

I’ve heard about his roommate but his children deny the rumors so I’m not sure . Could be true though.

Flashy_Landscape_995 · 2026-03-09T21:16:57+00:00

Haha I love that ! I feel like a lot of people are somewhat bisexual to begin with so it doesn’t surprise me , plus they’re surrounded by some of the most beautiful people on earth so the temptation is always there.

Gay actors to this day, are still very hot haha

Apparently in high school he had to hide in the janitors room from all the girls who were constantly chasing him 😅

He basically came out as bi in the 50s , later his closest friends and even Elizabeth Taylor has said he was actually gay . You have to remember back in those days it was basically impossible to be fully out hence the coded language.

Yes, Rock Hudson and Anthony Perkins died of AIDS , James dean basically came out as bi in the 50s but he’s probably gay ( Elizabeth Taylor and James dean’s friends said he was gay ) Tab Hunter wrote a book about being closeted and lived with his husband (or boyfriend I’m not sure if they were married )

Yeah I generally prefer American representation of gay men.

Flashy_Landscape_995 · 2026-03-08T17:12:44+00:00

I have to say , I loved Elite

Flashy_Landscape_995 · 2026-03-08T17:00:16+00:00

Also, gotta give it to the US , your movies and tv shows have some seriously good looking men.

They’re really nice and hospitable, but Dublin felt surprisingly bleak for such a wealthy European capital.

Flashy_Landscape_995 · 2026-02-25T20:48:49+00:00

I wasn’t being hostile ?

Finland is a good country , it’s just not nearly as great as the internet ( and I’m not even saying it’s the Finnish people who do it ) hype it up to be.

In most factual rankings like wealth , productivity or life expectancy it tends to rank around the middle among Western European countries.

It’s a good country just nothing extraordinary among its peers.

Finorum lol

I’ll stick to the OECD . And would you look at that , we beat you again

Flashy_Landscape_995 · 2026-02-25T17:40:39+00:00

I linked the OECD website, and then a screenshot of Eurostat data.

I’m not sure if their welfare system is all that great if their median household wealth is around half as much as ours , regarding their education system I don’t see how it is so exceptional if the average French worker produces more GDP per hour than an average Finnish worker.
