Is Superman Gay?


 Many of us grew up watching the exploits of Superman in movies and cartoons.  He was always awesome..."faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!"

Of course he did wear those revealing, tight stretchy pants and he had a cape...which served no purpose in his flying ability.....

But yet he always seemed to be interested in Lois Lane...and he also seemed to team up quite a bit with Wonder Woman....

I am so confused!!!

Was he gay?  Was he Bi sexual??  Was he overly friendly with The Boy Wonder (aka "Robin")?

Maybe Superman has just been evolving...much like our beloved President Obama?

Could Superman be gay?

Honchos at Superman's comic book home, DC Comics, said this weekend that one of their most identifiable (but as of yet unnamed) straight characters will soon be coming out of the closet, according to a report.

At the Kapow Comic Convention held last weekend in London, DC co-publisher Dan DiDio said the publisher would be reintroducing a previously existing character who would now be “one of our most prominent gay characters," the website BleedingCool.com reports.

Didio said DC's position had shifted on the subject since he said in an interview last year that any homosexual characters would be new introductions, and that none of their existing characters' sexual orientations would shift.

DC vice president Bob Wayne likened DC's change in tune to President Obama's shift on gay marriage, explaining that DC's policy “has evolved,” the report says.

Holy gayness!!  Who could the character be that is going to come out?  Aqua Man?  Batman??  The Hulk???  No!!!  If it's anyone...please let it be Robin who also allows himself to be called "The Boy Wonder."

Of all my friends and I, who faithfully watched Superheroes on Saturday mornings...not one of us EVER wanted to be Robin...I'm just sayin'....
