Tony's sexuality - Discussion

[beautybecks.livejournal.com]

Hi y'all,

Just wanted to start a little healthy discussion/debate about Tony's sexuality. Do you think he is Tim-sexual, bi-sexual, homosexual, pan-sexual etc? How do you factor his on-screen relations in regards to his sexuality, particularly Jeanne Benoit?

Personally, I see Tony as being very gay and all his talk of women is over-compensating. His infactuation with Tim has been there since the very beginning. I see him being mostly celibate and having slept with women in his past until he realised he was gay and sort of stopped the sex all together. Alas, the sexual frustration he gets from working round Tim day in and day out has driven him into the arms of a few men, but he tries to forget about that. For me, the forced relationship with Jeanne Benoit actually helped sell him as gay to me, he may have fallen in love with her eventually but I think a part of that was acting and sex, sex which he was reluctant about to begin with. It was supposed to be a fake relationship to begin with but I think that can be extended to include the fact it was fake because he is gay. Cole Porter married and loved his wife but that didn't make him any less gay.

What are your thoughts?

First: Tim-sexual xD Roflmao.

I don't Tony is gay, or bi, or straight or whatever. He is just Tony. When it comes to physical attraction, Tony loves everyone and everything.

When it comes to feelings things are a little bit more difficult, experience tells him that things like relations and everything never end wel. Than he gets forced in the whole Jeanne things and well, that is also one bit crap.

After the whole Jeanne fiasco Tony finds that Tim helps him trough his problems by just showing up, and after a few weeks he realizes that he is head over heels in love with him, and what scares him the most is that what he felt for Jeanne was nothing compared to what he feels for Tim. So when Jeanne shows up during internal affairs he can tell her that none of it was real.

Rigth then he realizes that what ever he feels for Tim, he can't ignore it anymore. He goes over to his house that evening and kisses him. He leaves after that, leaving the ball in Tim's court. He tries to act all cool about it the next day, but he is terrified that Tim blows his off.

Well we all now what happens next! (H-- M----- S--)

Nice scenario. I do think Tony's feelings for Tim are scarily intense, especially compared to what he felt for Jeanne. I've said it before but I love Jeanne/Tony being the catalyst for Tony/Tim.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts x
