The Vampire Diaries TV Show Does Anyone Else Think That Ian Somerhalder Looks Gay?

lizisme posted on Feb 18, 2010 at 04:44AM
i like the actor and i loved him in lost but i just think he has always looked gay. and no offense but i never thought he was cute. i think paul is so much hotter not that this has anything to do with it but it just seems that everyone on this site is like in love with him.
To me ian looks so homosexual i just find him gross like not bad boy hot or whatever most of you guys say.

so yeah why or like what do you guys see in him?

I do agree that Paul is hawt,but well,Ian isn't gay,he has a girlfriend and he doesn't look gay either,reasons why he doesn't look gay(you asked),he's handsome,you can tell he works out,he has gorgeous,normal(not too big not too small) muscles,he has really manly facial lines,and beautiful face too,but he's so cute too.he has those gorgeous blue eyes you get lost in.he has a gorgeous smile.i could go till tomorrow like this,but I won't,so why do you say he's gay,gay men look like women(not necessarily,but most of them does),they are all walking like..idk,weird,and they care more for their look than women,Ian is just a normal,handsome guy,and a great actor.so if you say he looks gay you have to give reasons not just say it like that.

I don't think so. He's just that type of guy who looks "pretty", but in a good way of course, not gay-ish. :] He's an amazing actor and nothing else matters, right? Just my opinion.

So what if most fans find Ian hotter than Paul, that is not a reason for you to attack the guy or insult him. "i find him gross" what is that supposed to mean??!!!! Besides, Ian is hot whether you liked it or not , and he's NOT gay nor looks like it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

at one point I thought so to but then i dnt care for a person's sexuality and its not any of our business and also i thought this man cnt be gay, even though hes acting he has some serious sexual skills.

@Lizisme:

This is a crack up. Young lady, tell me something! What does gay look like, lol?

Personally, I think Ian would make an attractive transgendered person. Stick him with a wig and a dress and he's the spitting image of Brook Shields.

But yes, I know what you're getting at. It's difficult to read posts admiring Ian Somerhalder's (looks) when you don't feel the same. I understand! And yes, Paul Wesley is an attractive and wonderful man. He has the sweetest smile I've ever seen. He's a shy one!

I've got go back to this one...

I've asked a couple of people in the LGBT community whether or not (and this is where I handed over a pic) Ian looked gay, and a few of the guys said he could pass for one by looking at that pic.

So, the answer is YES; he can pass for a bi-curious bloke.

loll I don't think he looks gay but I asked my mum's opinion on him and she thinks he looks gay lmaoo

I personally, don't think he is gay, but I think he is one of those men, who has the look or can be made over in such a way that he can appeal to a lot of men as well as women.

@lizisme: I can see how you have written your post that it can be taken the wrong way, but IA that fans here, love Ian and then there are some over obsessed fans, who are going to take what you say as offensive. People have got to understand that others have their different tastes and dislikes of what they find attractive and vice versa, it's just a matter of personal preferences. Your just going to find some people are going to be ignorant.

r u fkn kidding me? he does not look gay at ALL?!!!!!!!!!! i do not see where u see this from. I think its rude for u to put this post up. This is not related VD at all u talking about the actor and not in a nice way.

@EpicDelena4Ever:

Ian doesn't "look" gay? Um...what do you expect a gay man to look like? Are they supposed to look effeminate, masculine or are they a cross in-between, lol?

By the way, I didn't think the question was rude. It's one of the more intriguing threads and I've found people's reaction to it to be somewhat revealing.

Ooooh, you just set yourself up for the bashing! 1) that's still a really rude thing to say. 2)he's like the farthest from gay you can get in my opinion.

I am very unhappy with what AnaRoseCullen said about Gay guys! I am gay and if you did not know me you would not even think that I were gay! I do not like to be put in a stereotype! Yes there is gays out there that are exactly as she described But I am not one of them and I know hundreds of gay men that are not that gay. These days you can not tell if anyone is gay by looking at them.

Oh snap ...get her blake....i feel the same way bro....im gay too and you would never know unless i told you....its hard to explain that when everyone is inundated with the commercialized sense of gay.... Now that gay marriage is becoming real....the stereotypes you see some guys embracing makes it even worse.....im a guy before im gay....i have never had anyone ...including plenty of chicks in high school and college, roomates friends and family.....peg me for gay....everyone is always surprised when i tell them.......so id like to know how one can look gay

NO he doesn't looke gay but like a guy who ove to take care of his look. He is metrosexual but not gay. Just all his ex girlfriends

He looks very gay. Needs a better wig, too.
over a year ago MalexisSwerve said…
Uhh??? No Ian sexxxy Somerhalder is not gay. He played a gay before but he isn't gay. He had countless girlfriends in his life I.e. Nina Dobrev. He has kissed a guy before on the lips IN A MOVIE HE WAS IN. He kissed some guys on the cheek too, but as a playful banter. He could be bicurious for all we know, he doesn't look gay though. He may have when he was a teen model, but in my eyes, no. HE IS STRAIGHT BUT HAS KISSED GUYS ON THE CHEEK as far as we know.
Uhh??? No Ian sexxxy Somerhalder is not gay. He played a gay before but he isn't gay. He had countles
