MASAND: A Leading Actor is a Serial Philanderer - Page 72

Don't you guys think that the SRK thing is too far-fetched? I mean he doesn't come off as gay. At least, not in the interviews I watched him in. 🤔

Firstly, I don't care whether the actors or actresses I like are gay, straight, bi or whatever...as long as they please me with their onscreen performances - I'll appreciate them. Secondly, as far as SRK being gay is concerned, I've been hearing about SRK being gay for such a long time that I've never really looked too much into it. Yes, if there's anyone in bollywood who I'm biased towards then it's most probably SRK but this gay talk at times is beyond me. I don't know what others have seen, or heard but from mere logic it doesn't make much sense to me. If SRK is gay then shouldn't majority of bollywood know about it? you have actresses drooling over him time after time. Here, fans feel upset and cheated about SRK being gay when he's portrayed as the best lover on earth, best husband on this planet etc etc lol, yet there are these actresses who'd die to work with SRK, and I'd think it wouldn't be all the same had SRK been "gay."

I speak for myself when I say this, but if I was one of those bollywood actresses and if SRK being gay was true even by an ounce, I would not go around blushing, drooling, speaking about how I'm dying to work with SRK because he's so this/that etc. If we the people are intelligent enough to come to conclusions and infer things while sitting outside of this entire bollywood fraternity then I'm sure the people actually within bollywood know probably much much more.

Like I said before, I judge these people based on their skills and the potential they posses...but this SRK being gay thing just goes over my head every time.

Let me tell you people are drawn to his power, not necessarely his physique. They all want a taste of that power. We all know he's not the most beautiful man in the world. It's all about power and image. Best husband, best lover etc... it's all an image these actors build. There is a whole team working behind the scene to maintain that image. It's marketing and people go to school for that. Wake up people, Tiger Woods anyone??? I love SRK, really, but I'm not blind nor gullible. He's not perfect and I accept that. I'm not perfect either, but I definitely and categorically do not buy into his image. I live in NY and I've met tons of celebs like Robert De Niro, Sandra Bullock, etc... Believe me we all have dirty secrets!!

Tiger Woods....Never in my wildest dream thaught he such a sexmanic who has countless mistresses...i was thinking he is sachin tendular in Golf.

Just because a man is gay, doesnt mean it is impossible for girls to go ga ga over him. George Michael anyone? Who would have thought jhe was gay? Girls were CRAZY about him. I fell for a gay guy myself, him being gay didnt change my attraction towards him.

^ for me the biggie is possibility.

It's like falling for an old time film star. I can think he's great but I know that if the guy is dead or 90 years old, other than just an impersonal attraction, as to a work of art...there's no dream attached to it. The thing effectively becomes impossible.

So what about all the guys and men who are fans of SRK right now? Surely they know nothing's gonna happen to them, yet they will do anything to meet him. Surely they dont go to his concerts to be "seduced" by him do they?

SRK will reamain a superstar whether he's gay or not, people like to see him onscreen, so whatever he is offscreen is irrelevant, it's his life after all!

Considering all the motivations of all the guys (and women) who are SRK fans there is no way I could even attempt to answer this with any hope of covering all the bases but just a few off the top of my head...

Okay. so I ask my question again, what's the biggie if SRK is bi or gay? Okay, SOME fans who have romantic fantasies about SRK will be disappointed and homophobic people will start hating on him...why should he be apologetic about it?
