Shawn Mendes

I disagree. A lot of gays use the excuse of having a gay radar to project dated and sad stereotypes onto people. You can't tell someone's sexuality by watching someone you don't know. it is not a thing, I'm sorry. Maybe it was 60 years ago when we had to hide our identity, when toxic masculinity was at its peak, when anything considered feminine or different meant gay, but it's not now. And no, I'm not talking about celebs here I'm talking about real life people you meet. Lost count of friends who claimed someone wasn't straight because of their bsradar just to be wrong big time lol.
No, I think gaydar is a survival mechanism. It evolved as a way to help us find other partners in a very small dating pool and unsafe world.

I have had friends assume a guy was gay and he was certainly not. Likewise, i suspected guys were gay even though everyone believed they were straight and my suspicions turned out to be accurate.
 
I definitely don’t think my impression of Shawn reflects wishdar. A lot of guys that y’all think or want to be gay are 100% straight. Shawn is definitely gay and is clearly experiencing internalized homophobia.
you don’t know him to even come to this conclusion and it’s extremely weird for you to even insinuate this.
 
one thing I will not stand for is people calling shawn homophobic lol he is one of the few male artists who openly support us, at his concerts, during interviews, with his gay manager (when he came out), when one his best friends came out as a trans woman and more. Him asking to people to stop wrongly labelling him is not homophobic, especially considering people have been doing this for a way too long time when he was way too young. And if he is something else (bisexuality exists) he should be able to come out at his own terms and stop being pushed and by horny dudes who have no chance with him anyways.

I also think that he looks better without facial hair but we have to keep in mind that he's at vacation right now and tries a different look. When he's working again he'll surely shave again. But it's remarkable how old that few facial hair make him.

Isn't his whole life a vacation now?
