From what I heard from friends of mine meeting her, yeah. I also have friends who have met Tre and had bad experiences meeting him. So personally, I really don't care for either of them. Yeah, I don't disagree. No label is no label. But with him adding that he wouldn't say he's not bisexual, I consider it acceptable to say he is 2 minutes ago, Strychnine. said: "From what I heard from friends of mine meeting her" Tell us more, now I'm super curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcyMoffatt Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 23 minutes ago, Strychnine. said: Because she's kind of known for being a bitch and having jealousy issues. Years ago, I read in an interview Billie saying that Adrienne was getting mad when he was kissing fans on stage. He continued to do it even if he knew she was going to give him a hard time after. It was a long time ago. Maybe things changed since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was also an alcoholic back then and probably didn't care. She could have gotten on his ass about it since then and since he's sober now he might have decided to listen to her. 14 minutes ago, Jane Lannister said: Yeah, I don't disagree. No label is no label. But with him adding that he wouldn't say he's not bisexual, I consider it acceptable to say he is I think that was more of his way of saying "I still like men and women." He still said he doesn't personally have a label for his sexuality, so putting a label on him (like bisexual or straight) is a shitty thing to do. I think he more so threw that in so people wouldn't attach the straight tag on him. I get the feeling that Billie really doesn't give a fuck for labels, kind of like how he never gave a shit about fitting in with the punk scene. He's just himself. Just FYI from a queer person, it is NOT okay to say someone is a sexuality that they aren't. It doesn't matter if they aren't personally offended by it, it still isn't cool at all.

Meliciraptor Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Regarding the "Adie is a bitch"-discussion: I don't understand how you can make such statements about someone's personality or how they feel when you don't even know them. And before the argument comes up: Hearsay ("friends of friends told my cousin...") doesn't count as knowing something as personal as that. Regarding the "Billie is bi or not or yes"-discussion: To repeat myself, I don't understand how you can know how someone feels when you don't know them. No one knows about such things but themselves so why try to guess? Lets all fangirl over Billie's and Mike's epic chest bump at 0:25 instead :-D Can someone GIF that?

No one knows about such things but themselves so why try to guess? We know facts that Billie has said himself, like stating he has no label for his sexuality. Based on that alone, Billie is not bisexual. Only he knows his sexuality, and that was the statement he made about it. Despite this, there are still a lot of fans he claim he is bisexual. That's what I am talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caroline Truong Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 1 hour ago, neverdone2000 said: Glad somebody finally brought this up and I totally agree with you. Having someone very close to me who is gay, I can spot sexuality bullshit when I see it. Billie has stated since the original overblown bisexuality statement that he now believes he is not, and that he has never had a sexual relationship with another man. I totally don't hold it against him that he said he was bisexual because he was very young and at that age it's very common for people to mistake an appreciation of the hotness of someone of the same gender as bisexuality. But yet this myth is still very pervasive, with many on social media referring to him as a "bisexual icon", which just cracks me up. As far as his kissing fans, or fans kissing him, I think it's just pure affection and he loves it, male and female. He's an affectionate guy. Billie is not gay..but Billie stated that from few interview: He is always been Bi it is just that Some people at the time in 90s doesn't believed or understand it. He said in Out Mag.2010? that is reason why he wrote the song "Coming clean" from Dookie. It is about him coming clean with being Bi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just listenned to her or he just thought that he was too old for this... we just don't know what's going on with him for not kissing fans at every show like before.

The promotion team did a terrible job. RevRad album is ignored by all radio stations (except one) where I live. But I agree that we need more footage videos. The RevRad era is so special to the band and the fans. I hope we get something like a cd, dvd or book by the end of it. It would be awesome; like a souvenir of a very great time.

Billie-non-straight songs: Coming Clean,Basket Case,King for a Day,Blood,sex and booze?..etc.. and Gum?..Billie is funny little man. Basket Case has a one line reference to bisexuality, but it is not a non-straight song. It is about panic attacks. Blood, Sex and Booze is a song about BDSM and he actually refers to the dominatrix as a she. King for a Day is about cross dressing, not about his sexuality either. 2 minutes ago, Caroline Truong said: and "I went to Whore,He said I was bored?"

pacejunkie punk Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 And I thought Coming Clean was written as a tribute to the guys in Pansy Division. Not everything he writes is about himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grohl Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 2 hours ago, neverdone2000 said: I'm not sure of what you mean by that. It's kind of like what other people have been saying. He's bicomfortable. I see it as a way to be labeless regarding sexuality. It has a lot to do with his ideology as well. I'm sorry I'm not really explaining it well! There's not one neat answer to what queer means - it's a large umbrella term. I just feel Billie falls somewhere in that. Ultimately, it doesn't matter. As someone who identifies as queer, I always thought it was cool when Billie identified as bi. Am I disappointed that he doesn't anymore? Not really. He's still super supportive of the LGBT community. I think he might've said that so long ago because maybe he didn't have a word for what he was feeling. It's hard to figure out who you are and how you identify in a society that pushes binary labels. But anyway....how about Billie in the new tour promo?

Not necessarily. Dominatrix's often like to be called "Sir". Or so I've heard. However, the point I was trying to make is you can't say any of these songs are proof that he is bisexual. He often writes ambiguous lyrics. As someone so appropriately coined, I see him as more bicomfortable than bisexual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strychnine. Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 So I just want to throw out a little thing about Billie's sexuality. Everyone quotes Billie saying "I think I've always been bisexual" and leaves out the part where he is quoted as saying "I mean, at least I've always been interested in it." To me, I always took it as being he retracted the statement where he said he's always been bisexual and corrected it saying he's actually always been bi-curious.
