If I had to guess, I'd say they're all bisexual.

I get the feeling Tre is bi, but Mike is straight and maybe a tad bi-curious. I always wonder if Billie and Tre had a little fling in the past, mainly cause of that Out of Focus interview they did years ago where Tre says he has a boyfriend called Bill,while looking at Billie, but I suppose it's just wishfull thinking, :shifty:

Contemplating is a word, but I always thought it meant to think of. Like you were contemplating suicide.

I know what you mean, they aren't bisexual PER SE, but they're open for ideas, haha. That's what I think.

Ah, okay. I meant something like, talking about it and trying to find out what a quote exactly means.

Yeah, I think that too. Although I think of Mike more as straight. and I kind of forgot what I wanted to say.....

^ I think that was mostly just a teasing for the interviewer thing. I don't think Billie and Tre have had anything.

No Freddie? :(

That's always been one of my favorite Billie quotes. I just love how he worded it. I'm also bisexual, so it's cool to see this guy I really love and admire speak about it like that, because I agree with what he said.

I think its so cool that billie never made a big deal out of being bi or not........ Hes honest and thats what makes him so authentic.......

agreed.

the way he describes it is kinda sweet. :happy:

Yeah, and Mike's legendardy yellow suit :D I wonder as well 'cause of the TRL interview where Billie randomly says that he had sex with Tre. I know their joking, but I wonder if it's oine of those things where it's a joke but it's actually true? Yeah I'm just over thinking it, *stops being pervy*

I guess things like that will stay a mystery forever. But yeah, I wonder that too.

this conversation has become sort of ... hmm, what's the word?

I remember this statement he made, that was quite a long time ago. I remember another statement too which was made a few years after that one posted, I can't remember if it was on tv or in an article but it was basically about the original statement and he backed it up but also added while he has no problems kissing men etc he has never gone the whole 9 yards and had no desire to either. So while I believe he is Bi it seems he does have limitations on what he would or would not do in that sense.

I never saw a later statement about his sexuality... :huh:

Does anyone else remember this?

Don't worry. You're far from alone in your creepy speculation. It's not like your thinking is unfounded and delusional... Those guys really do make you wonder sometimes. :lol:

I've always loved this quote, a lot. :happy: I admire Billie Joe for speaking so openly about it, and i agree with his theory!

it still puzzles me why people think he is. bi. that interview was in 1995, he has been married all that time and has two kids. people's minds change it is quite possible that his has. the fact that these people are having to quote a 15 year old interview to make the point says a lot, really.

I personally don't believe that your sexual orientation will have changed just because of marriage, I understand that people constantly evolve but something as significant as that I am not sure of whether it would change. I also don't think you need to have had a relationship with a member of both sexes to be bisexual :)

Why is it that I love reading about stuff like this from Billie? :eyebrows: Ohhh and most bisexual people (on this article) are all very good looking, why is that? :eyebrows:

That first sentence is pretty much how I feel as well. But Billie and Mike are both married now, and Tre is in a relationship so I guess it doesn't really matter much.

i would imagine mike is straight. he just seems that way.

tre is flamboyant. i think most people mistake that for being gay. this is not necessarily the case. otherwise, there is no evidence to suggest that he is anything other than straight.

Other than him initiating makeout sessions with Billie Joe back in the day and claiming Billie (Bill) was his boyfriend. :thumbsup:

But that was all in the past, of course.

beautiful words

Hmmm, well, I just don't see Tre as being against the thought of a guy... I mean, I could be wrong, that's just the impression I get from his overall behavior and words. I would not take him kissing guys and talking about having Billie as a boyfriend at face value, however. Those guys make jokes about that stuff all the time. If it was serious, all of their female significant others wouldn't be too happy about every time they kiss someone.

Posted

Hmm, well I think none of them have very strict boundaries, given the kisses and stuff, but that doesn't mean they're really attracted to guys (anymore). None of us can possibly know that.

Posted

At any rate, I don't see why Billie Joe's quote wouldn't still apply to him. It just doesn't matter much, given he's in a committed relationship, whether he is attracted to men or women or both.

The singer from Pansy Division said in his book that when he asked Tre if any of the band were gay he said they weren't gay, but bisexual. But like Lorraine said it's not clear whether he meant himself, Billie or all three of them. And that was in 1994 so of course we don't know how any of them feel now.

I don't think any of their jokey comments, antics or kissing guys means anything, anyone can do those things for a laugh whatever their sexuality is. All it shows is that they're comfortable with themselves. The only way we know any of them are bi is if they say so.

yep..

And we all know Billie loves Mike, Mike loves Tré, Tré loves Billie, and the love is mutual :)

Well said, and I love them so much for that

You're absolutely right on this.

I was just refuting Disappearing Boy's claim that there wasn't anything to suggest Tre wasn't completely straight. Of course there is, and that's why there's even any speculation at all. But yea, we will probably never know. I think I like it better that way anyway. Lol.

I think they know how much fun the fans have speculating, is what it is ;).

Back in the day? They've been quite touchy-feely lately...not that I'm complaining! They're two BFFAE showing their love for each other. :wub:
