Y'know, I'm starting to find Nico to be quite disingenuous and touristy in his public explorations of sexuality and gender. Which is not to say I want to devalue people who identify as fluid, I don't. But he rubs me the wrong way. Perhaps I'm wrong to feel that way, I dunno.

Consider this for a moment: I was very fortunate to know that I always liked guys. However, I came from a very small town in out-state Nebraska. I dated girls but never went very far with them. After high school, some of my closest friends knew that I was gay. Some people knew me as bisexual because it was easier for me to tell these "fringe" people that than to come out fully. And even more people didn't know at all/had their assumptions. Out of the blue at 19, I entered into a purely physical relationship with a girl because, well, I was horny and bored. There weren't many gay dudes around for me to have fun with. That further muddied the waters of my sexuality, in the eyes of other people. I finally told my parents at 20, because I was in a relationship with a guy. Still other people who knew I had a sexual relationship with a girl just months prior, figured I must be bi, or assumed I was straight, depending on whether or not they knew about my new boyfriend. Some people caught up and understood I was gay. Some remained blissfully ignorant, and some don't give a shit either way. I'd bet there are at least a couple people I knew from that time period who still have no idea "how I turned out".
Now imagine if I was a celebrity of any sort, with the media reporting on my ongoing sexuality. If I had some notoriety and had a million people trying to follow along and interjecting their own suspicions, hopes, and hearsay. It is often hard for anyone to come out, let alone someone in the public eye. And remember, nobody is OWED an explanation. Nobody HAS to come out or talk about their sexuality. Cut the man some slack, and let's see some hot pics of him.

Idk, I used to think he was attractive and quite cool for advocating for the community, but now it seems like he’s trying to advocate for EVERYTHING at once and quite heavily, that I’m starting to lose interest in him.
I’m glad I’m not the only one feeling this way. Lately, Nico feels very forced, the way he is expressing himself doesn’t feel genuine.
I think you'll find most are feeling this way.
It feels like he is playing dress-up constantly with the different labels - for attention, and that's completely out of order as there are people that genuinely live day-to-day as those things.
Yeah, I guess it sort of feels like he’s playing LGBT tourist and all of this is some kind of joke or hobby for him? Again, I fully admit that I may be completely wrong here. Like, these are identities and labels that people struggle with for years and he’s just kind of throwing things around willy-nilly
yall are drawing so many conclusions that have no basis in reality. most male actors don't even feel comfortable coming out as gay because they know they'll get less roles, so I doubt Nico is gaining anything as an actor from coming out as genderfluid. i'm happy for him for speaking his truth, and being someone other genderfluid bi people can look up to.
Nico and his giant man clit must just disappear. He is the Michael Hoffman of the film industry. Tired, used, was kinda hot once, but over.
i dont care about his sexuality i just wanna see his cock
He'll label himself as something new in a month.
for a forum occupied by so many gay men in the LGBT community i'm real disgusted by yall coming at him for coming out as genderfluid. yall really love shitting on trans ppl.
I have no problem at all with him being genderfluid. That’s great.
I have liked Nico for a while. When he did his podcast, I started to notice that each time he had a guest on he sort of became that person. He seemed to take on that guests personality and interests.
He would interview someone he barely knew and suddenly his social media was plastered with that person, they were dating and he was in love. He seems to take on the personality of others, he wears a lot of hats.
For example, listen to him interview a yoga instructor and his voice is soft and tranquil and he is talking about spirituality. He interviewed a medium, he suddenly was a medium. He interviewed a vegan, he used to be vegan. He speaks to a gay man or a drag queen and he is tongue popping and “okuuuurrrr yesss hunny”. I’m sure some of it is real but some of it feels fake to me.
I hope he is living his true self but I can’t help but feels it doesn’t feel real and natural.
