Shawn Mendes

Well, you seem to have the time to be fighting with internet randoms on a forum lol
I’m not “fighting” with anyone. I’m simply pointing out that decency is still important. That treating people with dignity is important. But I guess someone who makes strange, detailed hypothetical scenarios about Shawn (like this one of yours, from a few weeks back) might not understand that.

"Dear diary, today I sucked off the cameraman and he gave me a good fuck, then my hippie friends joined in and I ended up a mess With overflow cum leaking of my hole"

How is that kind of comment even remotely productive on a forum like this? How is continually coming on a forum to speculate about someone’s sexuality when they’ve publicly stated what their position is productive? The anonymity of the internet has really ruined some of yall, hasn’t it? Have you no shred of decency left?
 
LPSGites favorite fall-back anytime strictly "gay" is off the table.

"Welllll he could still be totally bisexual guys, just because he's only dating girls and has never dated any guys publicly... DoEsN'T MeAn tHaT He's sTrAiGhT. He could still be queer!!!" 🤡
I think it's funny that it kinda mirrors Harry Styles discourse

"He's never publicly dated a guy and we know of several women that he has had relationships with, but he's unlabled guys!!! He's clearly not just a straight guy fishing for attention, he's into men too for sure!!"

I don’t see the Harry correlation. Many seem to think Shawn is very queer but insecure, damaged and closeted. While many think Harry (who has talked about having queer dimensions unlike Shawn) “baits”.

The thing is, as desperate and annoying as those people can be, at least two-thirds of guys with queer dimensions are indeed not unapologetically “out”. While most guys who have queer dimensions will never seriously date someone of their sex. And we’ve witnessed quite a few public figures who’ve indulged hetero relationships for years and then enter queer ones.

The “debate” is tired as hell, because none of us knows anyone’s dimensions, struggles, journeys, insecurities, experiences with fluidity or questioning, or their current place in the gender, sexual, romantic, emotion, commitment spectrum. Folks can only speculate. And even many “out” people aren’t fo’ real about their dimensions, or they still struggle with resentments and internalized phobias. My only issue with Shawn was that he leaned into gay panic, masculine insecurities and low-key homophobia even before the rumors started. Other than that, he doesn’t owe the public anything. And if he’s actually really struggling with some things it’s probably best for him not to be publicly “out”. Because the internet will simply make a joke out of things as usual.

Once you start adding labels, you start adding expectations. They labeled themselves, setting the marker.

Most celebs simply don't get into sexuality proclamations. They know who they are and laugh it off when the public gets it wrong. Let your actions speak louder then words. Though Shawn's actions were saying A LOT!

To Styles' credit, he didn't take the labels thing seriously and is free to do what he wants without having to eat his words later.

Not to be THAT guy, but this is the LARGE PENIS SUPPORT GROUP. This is a porn forum, what do you expect? I feel like I'm witnessing an amount of decency that puts presidential candidates and political figures to Shame, if I'm being honest but it's also peoples dicks talking. You come here to wank, you come here to talk about whatever your heart and dick desires, but this isn't a decorum class
 
I don't like that he was against people sexualising him until he started losing his popularity and then the thirst traps started again. Seems a bit hypocritical.
He never said he was against it people misquote him saying seeing how heavily edited and made up his Calvin Klein shoots were gave him body dysmorphia and took it as him saying he doesn’t like being perceived as sexy. And you can see the difference between that and the interview magazine shoot and a lot of the other shirtless photo shoots he’s done after that which are a lot more real and natural.

Lol or it can just be that CK had another Creative Director than the magazines?
You clearly don’t know how the process of a photoshot goes. That’s why you making up these assumptions that only taking place in your head. Body dysmorphia? The guy that literally don’t even have buttons on any shirt…

Beautifully stated.
