The real culprit

She was wink-wink-nudge-nudge "unconfirmed." Very close with a female companion.
don't they literally kiss near the end?

I'm a fairly cishet man and I think she's responsible for my appreciation of queer lit. I'm definitely a little gayer than I otherwise would be.
You misunderstand the math equation, much like how there is nothing manlier than two men (Femboys not accounted for due to unstable variables) there is nothing straighter that someone heterosexual appreciating homosexual tendencies of the opposite sex. Mind you this is operating on simplified variables, trans and bi folks make the math far far messier and I shall leave such matters of gayness and straightness to others who aren't me.

I seem to remember Xena doing the exact opposite of turning me gay

Oh definitely 🥰 I wanted to be her sidekick/roommate so badly.

Yo I should give this show another go. I remember watching it when I wasn't even a teenager, thinking it was kind of silly. But maybe it's good as an adult?
I'll give it a few episodes maybe.
it's very deliberately silly. and it's fun as hell. i watched it as an adult a couple years ago and to me it surprisingly holds up. the characters are enjoyable in a campy way, the actors are charismatic, the ideas are interesting (certainly more so than Hercules), and the action scenes—while clearly suffering from a limited budget—are actually top notch in concept. they were taking all their notes from hong kong action movies and it shows. they even nod to it by eventually taking xena "back" to the show's version of china.

Cool, I'll give it a go then I think. My wife also grew up with it so it might be a good nostalgic way to connect over something "new".

Out another diverse chick in it and make her gay and lame.
Ftfy.
That's not the quote from the episode though..

I'm a straight dude and it turned me into a lesbian.
I’m a straight dude and it turned me gay for lesbians

You're correct, mb. I'm smashing like two or three of them together.

I was watching Labyrinth on a loop as a young boy, and I thought David Bowie was awesome, but I turned out... more or less straight. Mostly. Pretty much. I mean, of course Bowie is gorgeous, I'm not an idiot.

A masterclass in acting. A true thespian.
A lesser actor would've just read the stage directions. But he yelled them. Brilliant.

I am also more or less straight, but even I can regonize that Antonio Banderas was a very attractive man.

I mean I appreciate homosexual tendencies in men too. I think it makes for some really steamy stories. I guess that's that Kinsey spectrum.
It's just possible I've just lapsed into presumed heterosexuality because I'm in a great monogamous relationship with a woman.
So anyway, that's why I say gay-er, but not fully gay or bi. Does that even make sense? Lol

wrote on last edited by [email protected]It's worth it if you can view it with the mindset that it's intentionally silly/"camp". For a very basic comparison: It's in a similar style to shows like Buffy or Charmed, just more self-aware.
Although it has to be said: It was technically a spinoff from Hercules, and there are crossover episodes. But that show is not nearly as good, for a multitude of reasons. And it got to the point where Kevin Sorbo(Hercules) is still salty about how a lot of the crew went over to Xena. He has even accused Lucy Lawless on social media of "stealing" crew from his show. To which she just laughs and mocks him, like she regularly does when he says stupid things.

The fuck do you mean, "was?"

I just wanted her sidekick.... As a young boy that seemed to be more my speed.
Xena was a bit much for me when I was watching Xena on TV.... At like... 5? 10? IDK. What year is it?

How many young lesbians do you think watched this show vs horny straight boys?
wrote on last edited by [email protected]She and Gabrielle (and their sexual energy, which might be completely imagined by me) definitely had an impact on me. I've had many wet dreams of those two, without me or anyone else being involved. I'm a bisexual dude but my adult content watch history is 99% lesbian stuff. Specifically where one or both is extremely into it and orgasms, for real, at least once. No porn industry fake lesbian shit, and no men involved in any way.

I like George Clooney, he was batman. ....now looking back that movie was a little horned up.

Still is, you're right, but there was definitely a sweet spot.
