Marilyn Manson?

[edit]

Why isn't Manson included in this list? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.231.65.112 (talk) 05:25, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Because you haven't given us a reliable source. Ward3001 (talk) 16:08, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Jeordie White is bisexual and said that he is bisexual but I think that Marilyn Manson didn't say something about his sexual orientation.--Varg Luka Berhing Rodger (talk) 19:49, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Some problems with Jörg Haider

[edit]

Two things are problematic with the mentioning of Jörg Haider:

  • A subtitled picture of him is shwon, but he is not listed in the table, which is inconsistent
  • The article about him claims that it is forbidden to make statements about him being homo- or bisexual, so maybe Wikipedia shouldn't do so.

John F. Kennedy, Jr.?

[edit]

Why isn't John F. Kennedy, Jr. not included in this list? REFERENCE: Heymann, C. David (2008). American Legacy: The Story of John & Caroline Kennedy. New York: Simon & Schuster. ISBN 9780743497398. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.123.3.136 (talk) 16:37, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    • I have removed John F. Kennedy, Jr. from the list. The assertion that he was bisexual is only hearsay that was written by C. David Heyman, a Brown University classmate of Kennedy's after Kennedy died. American Legacy: The Story of John & Caroline Kennedy is a spurious "tell all" that has been renounced by Kennedy's friends and family. If someone is going to be placed on this list merely by assertions made by tabloids, or posthumously by authors, you would have to include nearly every celebrity. I think the list needs better sourcing than some aquaintance making the claims after the subject is deceased with little or no evidence other than an assertion. C. David Heyman is not a historian, and his biography has been decried by many as being nothing but filled with falsehoods and sensationalism (not simply involving his alleged bisexuality). If a person is to be included on this list, there should either be a consensus of historians or an open admission while the individual is alive. ExRat (talk) 01:35, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Robert Mapplethorpe

[edit]

I've removed Robert Mapplethorpe, which is likely to be controversial. The sourcing for the existing statement refers to "Mapplethorpe: A Biography", Random House, 1995, a book I happen to own, without a page number. I have not read every page, but I've spent some time looking through, here's what I see as the pros and cons of his inclusion:

In favor of inclusion:

  • He had unquestioned relatiosnhips with Patti Smith and Lisa Lyon. I think it's fair to say, at least with respect to Smith, that if we were descriptively talking about sexual behavior that RM's history was biseuxal.

In favor of exclusion:

  • While it may be in part bisexual erasure, but there's no sourced indication that RM ever identified as bisexual, the reference uses gay or homosexual so far as I've seen. On page 230 comes as close as I could find to countering that saying that [Robert] thought of himself as "mostly homosexual". It's my understanding that WP's policies on describing sexual orientation give preference to self-identification, and we have no sourcing at all for self-identification as bisexual.
  • The word bisexual does not appear in the index.
  • The pages identified in the index under RM's orientation do not refer to pages that use the word bisexual, save for a reference on page 59 that "numerous Pratt students were declaring themselves "bisexual" (note scare quotes) but with no usage of that word, directly or indirectly, attributing that label to RM.

I think the latter argument is (sadly to me) stronger and more in keeping with Wikipedia policy. --j⚛e deckertalk 20:03, 14 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Robert Mapplethorpe was bisexual so he should be re-added to the list.

Jenna Jameson

[edit]

Here is the source that indicates that Jameson now identifies as "totally hetero". http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,359596,00.html . Please do not reinsert her. Asarelah (talk) 01:56, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Michael Huffington

[edit]

Michael Huffington is openly bisexual —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.28.150.106 (talk) 21:00, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If he's notable and you have a reliable source, put it in. Asarelah (talk) 19:31, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Madonna

[edit]

Madonna has slept with Sandra Bernhard and Jenny Shimizu which are both very publicized relationships. Not to mention there are a bunch of lesbian pictures of her in the sex book

Nicki Minaj

[edit]

Um, Nicki Minaj is ASEXUAL, not bisexual. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.160.251.25 (talk) 23:15, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Jack Kerouac

[edit]

Why isn't Jack Kerouac on this list? He was bisexual and it's a verifiable fact that has been written about for decades in various biographies about him and even Allen Ginsberg has said this about him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.175.74.104 (talk) 04:12, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]


John Maynard Keynes

[edit]

Not sure why he's not on the list, but he was certainly bisexual. Had many relations with men before marrying his wife. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Loudcolors (talk • contribs) 00:33, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you have a source then feel free to add him. Asarelah (talk) 02:00, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
He was gay and not bisexual.--Varg Luka Berhing Rodger (talk) 19:46, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keeley Hawes

[edit]

She should not be listed - the source is pure speculation, and she herself has said she was misquoted originally, here's the follow up article to the source on this page: http://www.afterellen.com/keeley-hawes-still-delectable-but-not-bisexual/03/2008/ 62.253.26.53 (talk) 08:07, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to remove people if they don't belong. Asarelah (talk) 00:53, 15 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
