Real Freddie Mercury Lovers - Jim or Mary
After finally watching "Bohemian Rhapsody" (not so young that Queen was new to me) and seeing the threads online by these dizzy young gaylings arguing with Frau about whether Jim Hutton was wrong or Mary Austin was a gold digger I got Jim's book. I kind of believe him about 80 percent but, after seeing interviews with her, I somehow can't see her being a gold digger or archetypical Fag Hag. What do you think?
I personally like both Jim and Mary.

Can we not start this nonsense AGAIN??? It’s tiresome.

Freddie and Jim are both dead for many years. Let them RIP.
Mary is alive and doing well with her many millions

I think it is safe to assume Freddie Mercury loved them both and they both loved him. But, each of them were jealous of the other.

Jim was a skank. Mary was obviously the one whom he always loved.

Freddie himself chose both!
He officially had Mary on the books as his secretary and Jim as his gardener, but he loved them both and kept them around. My guess is that he'd have married Mary and had kids, if she was willing, and had his Jim and his orgies on the side. Well she wasn't willing, but his will treated her like the official widow anyway.

Younger gays, even Gen X-ers, maybe don't quite get the lives gay men like me lived back then. As "liberal" as the 70's and 80's were...they were not, except in our own venue. A LOT of us married or were engaged to women...some even grew to love them in a way. I still love my ex wife who died of breast cancer 10 years ago even though we divorced and she remarried but became my best friend. We simply couldn't deny our sexuality and, if we were lucky, we found the right man. Things were more complicated and we had to adapt. The only good thing was that we learned about various types of love which today's Millenials, with their "swipe" culture just don't get.

They were all three very nice people in a confusing situation. Jim seemed funny and sexy in a adorable way and they really broke the mold when they made Mary. Freddie was a legend and seemed genuinely kind but a bit in his own artist universe. The movie didn't do the three of them justice. They all had interesting lives.

Today we are all about perfect looks. I like how Freddie stood apart from other successful men and loved two very natural people.

I don't think Mary was a gold-digger, because like I said, she probably could have married him, if she were willing to put up with ten or twenty thousand side pieces.
