My reading was that if he wasn’t only attracted to men, but I was assuming he was gay. I still don’t know tbh, since I’m just going off this one picture
Well there we have it I guess. I haven’t even watched a documentary on it so I’ll take your word for it.
In my mind it’s more romantic if the people in the picture had a platonic bond, so that’s my bias, but the world doesn’t revolve around my aesthetic preferences, fortunately.
He loved her, clearly. But he actually left her because he was gay and needed to pursue physical relationships with other men.
He presumably was able to get it up with her when they were together so high was likely a bit bi (aren’t we all?), but that he left her while he lover her to be gay makes me think he was much more gay than bi.
Yeah, I was being facetious. Clearly some people are completely asexual. But we don’t need to gatekeep here. I think there’s a spectrum between straight and gay, with bi right in the middle, but plenty of other mixes of being attracted to the same and opposite sex. And I suspect that many self defined straight people would be into some same sex action if the circumstances were just so. The social pressures to be straight (or even gay) probably mask this somewhat.

Freddy was bi there is no doubt about it.

He was involved with her for years, left a love letter, his entire fortune and properties to her out of all his lovers and you think it was platonic?
Bi-erasure is real and entirely disgusting.
My folk, I’m bi
I’m just a spoony asexual

Nope! Only bi people are bi, there are plenty of people with genuinely no attraction to men or no attraction to women.

Sure, absolutely. But I think that normalizing the attitude of “aren’t we all a little bit bi” prevents people from discovering that they’re bi.
