Elvis Presley

Did he have a large gay following back in the day?

Or mostly overlooked?

We didn't have gays back then!

I wasn't around back then, but I've met some obviously closeted old men who are HUGE Elvis fans. I did karaoke , one time, where this creepy older guy cornered me afterward and kept praising me saying I was a mixture of Elvis and Judy.

Gays used to hate sexy men like Elvis. Gays only started being attracted to men in the 80s.

Why bother with Elvis Presley when Clint Walker was in Hollywood?

Jeez. I hate that rock-and-roll rubbish!

Elvis was heavily rumored to have gay relationships himself. The names are out there. After his divorce he was lying in bed with his girlfriend of that time and she finally got up, went into the next room where his cronies were and stated that she felt that Elvis liked guys better than girls.

That would explain where his daughter got it.

He was worshipped by everyone. Gay, Straight, Demiromantic humanoids and draconians. Fun times.

He certainly had the mother issues. He couldn't deal sexually with mature women because they reminded him too much of Mom (and let's just not go into that).

Whether the result was gay, or straight pedo, or both, it's hard to determine at this distance.

The other question, and I don't know the answer to this, was whether the Colonel saw him as a meal as well as a meal ticket. Eldergays?

Once he DID have a large gay following, but he managed to give him the slip by ducking down an alley.

Your homophobic tropes are not only offensive, they're inaccurate. 'Mother issues' do not result in a person being gay, or a pedophile. The two are unrelated to begin with except in your bigoted mind.

Kindly fuck off with this shit.

Gays hate the white South.

by Anonymousreply 15March 6, 2020 2:04 PM

The white South hates gays.

by Anonymousreply 16March 6, 2020 2:05 PM

r15 and r16, utter nonsense. I live in Savannah, Georgia and love it here. I've never experienced hate from anyone due to my sexuality. I'm not saying that no one in the south hates gays; I'm sure there are some but what state in the union contains no one that hates gays?

by Anonymousreply 17March 6, 2020 3:36 PM

Try again, R17. If you live in Savannah, GA, your life is organized around straight people's hatred of the gay community.

On November 2, 2004, Georgia voters approved Constitutional Amendment 1, which made it unconstitutional for the state to recognize or perform same-sex marriages or civil unions. Obergefell made that unenforceable in 2015, but Georgia has not removed that language from its own Constitution, so if the US Supreme Court should back down from Obergefell, Georgia can immediately begin refusing to recognize same-sex marriages.

Georgia law does not protect against employee discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity.

Georgia law does not protect against LGBTQ discrimination in the provision of goods and services.

Georgia law does not protect LGBTQ persons from discrimination in the rental of housing.
