to ask, why does David Walliams act so camp?

[ssd]

is it part of his image or something?

I just dont get it.

Surely you don't mean Bruce Willis

Dampness would be pretty unappealing in anyone.

Yes. Bruce Willis.

it's not depressing at all.

i think dw bases his act on kenneth williams who is an interesting persona

dw is not interesting at all hence he has to base his act on another

Some of the posts are offensive, as I said. Seriously, respond to posts made, not ones you make up.

Personality does not equal sexuality. To assume he's gay is one thing, to disbelieve him is another. He's said time and time again he is not gay (though maybe not exactly straight.)
Good lord, what year is it again?

someone should tell dw that it ain't 1975

It's the apparent contradiction that attracts comment.

In fact, having checked DW's wikipedia entry, it turns out that he's made a fairly clear non-declaration declaration of bisexuality.

I think being bi still causes well-known people a problem. Whoever pointed the finger at marketing bods upthread was onto something, I think.

southeast my depressing comment was in response to the side discussion about actors in general. RTT

I am completely :o by all the posters suggesting this or that person SHOULD come out, though, TBH.

i) The world is not perfect yet

And

ii) Nobody has to do anything they don't want to.

Shit. NOT

I agree at bisexuality still being a problem for a lot of people. Still seems to be an unknown and the response carries a whiff of 'burn the witch'.

It's not something I've been that aware of one way or the other, but I accept it is probably true. In what way is Bi-sexuality a problem for some people? Is that people like to be able to put a person in a pigeon hole/category or is it more threatening in some way?

I am mainly straight, but had a brief bi fling when I was young and can still find women physically attractive, but would certainly not share that with many in RL, I'm not quite sure why as it's not something that worries me.

As a society, we like people to pick a box and climb in, I think.

The entertainment industry certainly works that way.

X post.

I think it's exactly that Silver

I also think a lot of gay men are incredibly attractive. I think that's why David Walliams is; there is something potent about his sexual ambiguity.

Maybe the fear is of bi-sexuality is just a manifestation of a particular type of homophobia. If you recognise that people can be attracted to both sexes, and sexuality is not an all or nothing divide, what might that mean about your won sexual orientation. That old idea that maybe you are suppressing something in your own make-up is a fear that manifests itself in homophobia.

*own Not won.

I love the 2 very diverse opinions next to each above (mine followed by member)

He's not right, I'll tell you that.

What a very strange thread - all these people insistent that DW is definitely gay, when they can't possibly know...

I dont care of he's gay or not I hate the way he leers at men, if it was at women they'd be an uproar ^^

as said already, thats what I dont like, the false leeriness, like we should find it appealing and funny, it just comes across as crass and boring

Don't care if he's gay or not but I find him a bit dead eyed like a reptile and creepy like his niceness is an act.

I urge anyone who's remotely interested to read his autobiography 'Camp David'. You'll begin to understand him.

As for the Saville-esque/charity insinuation....it's totally uncalled for.
