      I'm a lesbian and I don't think so. People are allowed to have whatever opinions they want, but my take is no. I think because accusing her of being one was one of Regina's main targets for bullying it wouldn't be wise to make her gay. Maybe bi, if you want to go based on stereotypes of style and personality, but if she really was gay, then it makes regina a canon homophobe, and technically correct in what she says. The reason things like not inviting her to a pool party because she's gay make her seem too sensitive and overprotective of her image, rather than outright cruel is because they aren't even true. Instead of being bigotry backed up by facts, I like reginas character as just wrong in her choices. But if the writers say it i can't dispute. Just my opinion

      He really did. I mean in the final battle scene in the books, Grantaire sleeps through the entire thing because he's a drunk bitch and when he wakes up him and Ejolras are the only ones left. And then they face the army and hold hands as they get killed. They HOLD HANDS. That's the gayest you could do at the time. It is also explained that Grantaire didn't join the revolution because he believed in it, he just joined because he admired Enjolras and wanted to spend time with him.
      You can't tell me that's not gay. Grantaire is just fully gay for Enjolras. I think Enjolras is a bit too busy with the revolution to take the time for romantic relationships, but the way he looks at Grantaire (in the movie and on stage) just screams gay.

      That’s your interpretation mate, for me Enjolras is the best representation of an aromantic asexual character I have ever seen in any media, period, and I do think that’s what Hugo was going for. When he’s talking to himself about who his mistress is, he doesn’t say me boi grantaire, or some other dude he has hooked up. He says Patria, implying that his life is just as fulfilling and meaningful and filled with passion without any romantic attachment at all. I kind of get where people are coming from when they think he’s gay. Things like “he did not seem to know that on earth existed such a thing as women” and the whole achilles patroclus thing are good arguments. But they only are good arguments until you realise that the first thing is also a very aroace thing to say and that comparing anyone to any greek character makes them sound gay because they were all gay. Enjolras being gay is just subtext while Enjolras being aroace is actually text and it’s really good representation especially considering no one had even come up with a word for human asexuality in the time the book was written and people who interpret him as gay usually don’t even consider the possibility of him just being ace. This is the hill I am forever going to die on. Grantaire really is super gay for Enjolras though.

    Okay as someone who is very into Les Mis the novel I think that Victor Hugo was definitely implying and intending homoerotic undertones between Enjolras and Grantaire. They’re compared throughout the novel to Orestes and Pylades, two men in Greek mythology who are lovers. They are continually described as being intrinsically linked as people and they literally die holding hands. Grantaire’s whole character is based around veneration for Enjolras who is too all consumed by revolutionary fervour to pay any notice to Grantaire. They are the ultimate tragic gay love story and I will literally never shut up about them

      Ehh... It's definitely stated as clearly as Victor Hugo could get away with at the time considering that homosexuality was considered a mental illness that Grantaire was in love with Enjolras, but it's also very made abundantly clear that's a completely one-sided thing on Grantaire's part. Enjolras is quite clearly coded to be aro-ace more than anything else - it's outright stated (multiple times) that his biggest love is "Patria" (i.e. France itself) and in Hugo's initial character description of Enjolras, there's an entire paragraph dedicated to explaining that said love for his country has all but completely taken the place of any romantic love Enjolras might potentially feel. Every interaction he has with Grantaire is basically about R blatantly being in love with him and Enjolras being either unwilling to acknowledge it or legitimately unable to reciprocate.
      Sorry, it's just that as an ace myself, there's honestly very little that annoys me more than ace-Enjy erasure, considering novel-Enjolras was one of the first (and still very few) examples of actually healthy (albeit coded) asexuality where it's not implied to be due to some mental deficiency or trauma or capable of being "fixed"...

      Literally her character as a lesbian just makes so much more sense because it’s said multiple times in the show that it’s only okay if she calls Damien ‘too gay to function’ and I just feel like no matter how close her and Damien are if she said this as a straight person there would be homophobic undertones too it but I’m so glad musical Janis didn’t end up with Kevin

    Fun fact about Anne of Cleves: Henry the 8th used to do this weird thing where he would dress up in a disguise and meet women he fancied. He thought that despite the disguise true lovers would recognise each other or some shit like that. Any way so he did this to Anne of Cleves and by this point he was really old and had a festering sore on his leg which made him really smelly. Anne was completely horrified and because she didn’t recognise him physically recoiled and was like ew not only are you man, you smelly man. Henry couldn’t handle this and stormed off shouting “I like her not”. Basically it was the olde timey version of a tinder match swiping right and then sending you a message like “i didn’t like you anyway-slut”
