>>95077222 The trick to this is that Bobby's just the tip of the iceberg.
Storm, Pussy Pride, Jean, Scott, Logan, Xavier, Magneto, Magik, Rachel, Havok, Emma, Mystique, Cannonball, Sunspot, and so many many others are closet homosexuals too.
(or "worse")
They've just started with outing the obvious example that (almost) everyone already knew about.
Iceman doesn't have to desire women sexually in order to play the role of straight, he sincerely cares about the women he's dated, he was just never sexually excited by them, or at least not as much as by the prospect of sex with a man...
That doesn't make him bisexual.
Think for one second about that: if he could have made one of his relationships with a woman work, given how much he constantly tried to make them work in stories that served no purpose other than to spotlight how much he tried, why didn't any of his relationships succeed?
And what were the reasons they all failed if not for there being one specific unidentified obvious issue?
After all, the point of someone being in the closet is to try to be straight. Remember?
Your demand that they just try to date women as a bisexual isn't any different from demanding that he be straight.
And Beast is straight. He's just a huge dick.
