Obviously, Silhouette was explicitly stated to be a lesbian in Watchmen. I also recall some mentions of the possibility of Hooded Justice being gay as well. Now, I have someone telling me it was confirmed that Captain Metropolis was also a faggot and in a relationship with Hooded Justice. Is there anything to even imply this? While I can accept a naked blue man that controls matter in my comic book, I'm having serious difficulty believing that 3 of the 8 Minutemen were homosexuals.
Also, let's talk about homosexuality in general in Watchmen. There seems to be quite a bit of it. Silhouette, the two lesbians on the street corner that got squidded, apparently Captain Metropolis and Hooded Justice, possibly Veidt (must investigate further), and even some retards seem really convinced Rorschach is gay for Nite Owl. Looking back, there's a lot of homosexuality in Watchmen. Is Moore a closet gay or something?
Jayden Howard
Don't you have to go to school or something?
Grayson Brown
It is strange that there are three Homos in minutemen.
Grayson Martinez
This is a dumb post, if you didn't read the book you shouldn't be discussing it.
Jaxson Torres
Gee it's almost like Watchmen is from the 80s or something

If I remember correctly, not in Watchmen itself, but it quite clearly implied in the prequels. > I'm having serious difficulty believing that 3 of the 8 Minutemen were homosexuals. >Also, let's talk about homosexuality in general in Watchmen. There seems to be quite a bit of it. Isn't that kind of the point? It's a suggestion that if you run around at night wearing a latex suit then well, there probably is something at least slightly off about you, perhaps in a sexual way. I'm pretty sure that one of the characters quite clearly states that in Watchmen's written sections, either Mason or Silk Spectre(senior)

I just started reading Before Watchmen: Minutemen, and Hooded Justice and Captain Metropolis are definitely doing gay shit in that. As far as I'm aware though, there weren't any hints of Captain Metropolis being gay in Watchmen.
Fuck off nigger, the Minutemen stuff made up like 5% of the actual content of Watchmen, and almost none of it actually happened on panel other than Comedian trying to rape Sally. Hooded Justice was suspected to be gay, but I don't have any recollection about the book ever hinting at Metropolis being gay. Since you clearly know the answer, why don't you fucking tell me instead of acting like a smug cunt? All I'm asking for is evidence in Watchmen that Captain Metropolis is gay.
Colton King
Not even claiming there is, but you know what I mean Also, since I have nothing better to do, I find those fragments. They're from "Under the Hood" chapter III, that is, the end of Watchmen's chapter 2: >"Some of us did it because(...), some of us did it out of a sense of childish exciment and some of us, I think, did it for a kind of excitement that was altogether more adult if perhaps less healthy. They've called us fascists and they've called us perverts and while there's an element of truth in both those accusations(...)"
>"Yes, I daresay some of us did have our sexual hang-ups(...),(Silhouette case) provides proof for those who need it that for some people dressing up in a costume did have its more libidinous elements"
>"Yes, we were crazy, we were kinky(...)"
Also remember that Alan Moore has quite an obsession with sexuality
Adam Long
>As far as I'm aware though, there weren't any hints of Captain Metropolis being gay in Watchmen. True, but to be honest there is hardly any info about CM in Watchmen. He only appears in this one retrospection in which he doesn't even do that much except for giving a speech and then breaking down when Comedian bullies him and in Sally's retrospection in which he's only in the background. From what I remember the written sections also don't tell us anything about him other than the facts that he's ex-military and the originator of Minutemen.
Nathaniel Reed
> only GAYs could possibly write about homosexual relationships.......
Benjamin Green
When you consider that it's an organisation with a dress code involving a flamboyant costume and tights, it doesn't seem as strange.
Jeremiah Gomez
>I'm asking for is evidence in Watchmen that Captain Metropolis is gay. I think Hollis Mason mentions that him and Hooded Justice used to bicker like a married couple or something
Carson Walker
>I just started reading Before Watchmen Why would you EVER do this? I haven't even finished that turd, it's so universally hated and for good reason.
Hunter Jackson
You think hooded ever try to hit on one of his teammates?
Angel Rivera
Fuck off, some of the series are pretty good. Some of the others, arguably not so much. But Minutemen and Silk Spectre were really solid.
Parker Martinez
Also there is a section where Nelson is explicitly referee to by Silk Spectres husband as gay (calling him Nellie and CM), outright stating Hooded Justice used to beat up/tortured male hookers, and Silk Spectre outright stating that Sillouette being expelled for on the team was bullshit due to the fact that "we let gay teammates stay on the roster" in reference to HJ and Captain Metropolius
Joshua Brooks
Minutemen make me hate the comedian even more, which I didn't even think could be possible.
Julian Sanders
Here are all the obvious faggots >Hooded Justice >Silhouette >Ozy >Probably Captain Metropolis >Not Rorschach I'm pretty sure some of the villains were gay too, but I don't remember. wouldn't be surprised if Moloch was. >Is Moore a closet gay or something? No. He was just trying to make the Velvet Underground of graphic novels.
Wyatt Brown
What does he do in that?
Sebastian Powell
None of them are worth reading.
Jaxon Bennett
Hooded Justice only gets an erection when he beats dudes until they're bruised and bloody, so the only one I ever see him hitting on is Comedian.
Elijah Gray
Hooded Justice was not only gay but also sadomasochist, it explains why the Comedian tell him he likes making pain.
Andrew James
>gays make up less than 1% of the population >3 of 8 superheroes were gay
This is all OP is saying, calm down niggers
Jordan Adams
>faggots >nothing wrong pick one
Lucas Evans
Yeah, it should've been way more.
Jack Watson
Let's talk about your obsession with homosexuals first.
James Harris
watchmen is making fun of how unintentionally gay superheroes are.
>Possibly homosexual. must investigate further.
Luke Anderson
I might be misremembering it, but didn't Ozy have a gf in his prequel who died of overdose or something, and that's what pushed him into crime fighting?
Easton Flores
Oh, and one of the main points of Moloch's arc in Before was his obsession about a teenage crush of his, so nah, he's not gay either. Unless you choose to ignore the prequels, but I still don't remember anything implying his homosexuality in the original
Brayden Rogers
>fag detected
Camden Cruz
>possibly Veidt (must investigate further) If you think that this is an indication that he was gay rather than Rorschach being repressed, you're fucking retarded
Lucas Ross
I cannot even begin to understand your warped and deranged mindset. According to your insane thought process, everyone who has ever called anyone else gay secretly wants to gobble cocks. I don't think Veidt is gay, I was just making a shitty reference to Rorschach's quote, but if you actually think Rorschach is a repressed homosexual because of that line you have severe brain damage.
Alexander Morgan
He frames HJ for murder to the point even Nelson turns on him, then gets him killed and admits he did it all out of petiness.
Connor Fisher
Don't even get me started on this crap he pulled off in Silk Spectre prequel, I don't remember any comic book that made me feel as legitimately sad as this
Jeremiah Collins
Didn't Silk Spectre become a porn star?
Wyatt Thomas
[Boys]
Eli Williams
The prequel comic confirmed Ozzymandias is bisexual
Jonathan Mitchell
>[Boys]
that's just Zach Snyder's repression sneaking in
Blake Walker
The prequel is about Laurie, not Sally.
Lincoln Hughes
Never understood the Rorschach is gay headcanon when it's pretty clear that he's asexual and so traumatized/repulsed by sex that he probably hates his own dick by this point.
Lucas Ross
This. He surely has deep feelings for Dan, but they're not romantic and definitely not sexual - he's just pretty much the only friend he ever had, or at least as close to that as possible, and he's the only person he could share his "quest" with.
Julian Campbell
Pretty much. I always saw the handshake between the two as a pretty good example of Rorschach's mental state. He's so unused to affection and closeness that he doesn't know how to properly express himself. It's really sad but also sweet because you're able to see that he's still human, he's not soulless, and he does take the only bond he has left seriously.
Samuel James
I think Rorschach gets humanized a lot toward the end. Another example is when he's retrieving his spare "face", and confronts his landlady. A lot of people for some reason misinterpret this as Rorschach sexually harassing her, when it's made abundantly clear that she lied about that to the press for her 15 minutes of fame. He could have done something horrible to her for slandering him, but he didn't. He's always resented her from the beginning of the book because she's the spitting image of his whore mother, but the way he looks at her kids during that interaction shows that he sees himself in them. I think when she begs him not to let her kids know about the truth, that she fucks men for money, he finds out that maybe she's not as awful as his mother and reserves his judgement of her. Another obvious example is when he pulls Dan off the guys that killed Hollis. I mean, I know there are a bunch of memes of Moore hating Rorschach and not understanding how anyone can like him, but that has to be bullshit. There's no way he wrote such a compelling character, yet sees no redeeming qualities in him.
