Shawn Mendes

[CanadianGuy2017]

I bet he kissed a guy and he liked it. That’s why he’s “figuring it out.”

Well, I suppose it's possible that Shawn met somebody special. He wouldn't be the first celebrity to be motivated to go public after falling for someone.

Announcing to the world ‘I’m straight’ a couple of years ago is going to haunt him good meme material

“Fluidity” is a real thing though. I’ve experienced it. So have many others I know. You can feel hetero, homo, bi and then feel differently months or years later. Just like the type of man you’re into or most turned on by may change over the years. That’s also “fluidity.” Even “attractions” aren’t always straightforward. Arousal doesn’t always equate to desire. Desire doesn’t always equate to sexual enjoyment. While someone’s desires or arousals can increase or decrease over time. And sexual enjoyment or attractions doesn’t always connect to the romantic or emotion or relationship aspects of your psychology or preferences. All of that doesn’t even touch on how sense of gender/gender expressions or hyper-sexuality or a low libido or fetishes or narcissism may play a role into things. Then of course, there’s social, family, industry, religious, ego insecurities and pressures.

Let’s not be basic bytches. More people investing in genuinely understanding “sexuality” and understanding other people in general would allow us to have more honest discussions and would help kill some of the problematic and messy behaviors. Everyone has their own makeup, struggles and journeys. That’s something we need to accept.

Ohh, right, I remember that name. You're the fluidity guy. It's called bisexuality.

Ohh and if overcomplicating your sexuality is the only thing that can make you standout from everyone else. I feel terribly sorry for you.

I mean, I’m here for photos and videos, and I have no real interest in engaging in an argument - but being fluid isn’t the same as being bisexual.

If "fluidity" is a thing then you might as well say no one is actually gay or straight, they just haven't met the right person yet.

 

[Loverofcars]

the amount of straight women on the internet saying that Shawn ''technically didnt come out'' so he's ''probably straight but being pressured by the gays to say something'' is WILD to me, like so many women deep in denial is crazy

It’s kinda sad that so many of them are in denial in this day and age. It kinda gives off lowkey homophobia. As I’ve said before, pretty sure we have a few of them in here. They need to accept him as he is and not place the blame on us. If Shawn was truly 100% straight, he wouldn’t have made that announcement.

 

[giodeali]

I'm surprised he didn't go to any Hollywood parties

That’s not how genuine “fluidity” works. It’s not about behaviors or “meeting the right person”. Once again, it doesn’t have to be about gender. You can be thoroughly hetero or homo or bi your whole life and experience fluidity. Maybe you weren’t attracted to black guys but found them more attractive as you got older. Maybe muscular dudes used to turn you on but they don’t anymore. That type of shit is “fluidity” aa well. And people experience “fluidity” in different ways and to different extents. Some never experience it at all. And it definitely contributes to a lot of people’s “confusions” and some of the “ex-gay” and “I’m ‘straight’ but I just like to fool around” type of nonsense. Also, yes, some people do use “fluidity” to cover up being closeted or cover up their attempts to shield their dimensions or cover up simply being bi/pan. It’s all true.

Yeah, I wish it was like that. I had to do a lot of research and learning to understand myself more, understand what I was going through and be more understanding towards other. It’s fairly taxing. While I have enough wit, charm, money and am cute enough that I don’t need to use anything else to “standout.”

A lot of what I was describing was about other people’s struggles, not my own. And the main point I was making is that you have to look beyond identities and behaviors to genuinely understand people and their journeys. Maybe, just maybe, Shawn thought he was genuinely “straight”/hetero some years ago. Maybe he has some contradictions/nuances that he doesn’t know what to make of. Maybe there’s still a lot of insecurities. Maybe he experienced some abuse that triggered some mental health struggles and helped lead to some resentments. Maybe he is “gay” or “bi” and has always and has always known but felt a lot of industry and family pressures. Maybe he really is just a young, silly boy trying to “figure things out”. You really don’t know people’s traumas and makeup. So, it’s best not to be a judge-y bytch when it isn’t called for. But once again, you don’t have to be naive or a sycophant like some folks in this thread. The dude was obviously very queer years ago to anyone with decent queer-dar. And much of his public whining just made things more awkward and put a target on his back.

Ohh, right, I remember that name. You're the fluidity guy. It's called bisexuality.

I know, I kinda feel like there's some gay (or just individual sexuality, straight, bi, lesbian, asexual etc) erasure going on for the sake of fluidity. Fluidity is most likely bisexuality or pansexuality. Or hell, you could be fluid, but just don't try and discredit something that has already been on the table for centuries. He literally could have said he's bisexual or pansexual but a female attraction lean. Idk, just don't try to erase credible, real, founded, proven sexuality, and disparage it for "fluidity".

Had a dream last night that he was dating Fai Khadra. What a hot couple they’d be!

That's just being queer, dude. It's not that complicated. You are either attracted or not.

You're mistaking something else entirely as "fluidity." I'm gay and at times I'm more drawn towards twinks, other times to jocks or whatever but never women. A bisexual also experiences this but theirs would also include women.

I bet your research entirely consists of reading anecdotes and unfounded, cherry-picked "studies" from the dumbest political publications.
