I think queerbaiting can get really mucky so I personally don’t want to label anybody as doing that w/o truly knowing their sexuality. However, I think this whole thing of him being ambiguous and making these erroneous generalizations about queer experiences and cinematic portrayals and whatnot make me wonder how much authority someone like him has to speak on this stuff.
Whether he is a member of LGBTQ community or not, I personally feel like it isn’t his place to speak for queer people unless he more explicitly embraced that identity. Because it doesn’t seem like he’s at all in touch with the queer experience from the things he’s been saying, like his actions even in relation to queer ambiguity seem to be catering towards his majority straight white female audience than actual beneficial representation for gay men.
