Whoa, so the idea of Daryl possibly being gay came from Norman? WHOA. I casually ship him with Rick (when I'm not shipping him with Carol, haha).

Anyway, if you find Eugene attractive, you find him attractive.

[(Anonymous)]

No OP isn't right. Robert Kirkman was screwing around with his "no one is safe" thing to keep fans on their toes and he put that out there that as a wouldn't it shock the audience if Daryl was gay.

[thistlechaser]

While I usually love slash over all else, never has a het pairing worked for me as well as Daryl/Carol. She's basically the only reason I still watch the show at all, and seeing the two interact is just bonus.

I can't put my finger on why, but I find Eugene attractive as well. Maybe because he's smart?

[kaijinscendre]

I wouldn't mind the character being gay (and I know Norman Reedus is totally for it), but not feeling the Eugene/Daryl. That mullet + how much of a wuss he is = Blech. But to each their own.

And starting to watch because of the potential gay character doesn't seem any more shallow than many other reasons people may have to watch shows.

[(Anonymous)]

...is that a mullet?

[(Anonymous)]

On Eugene. Yes.

Heads up, but photobucket isn't a good host because your username is in the url. You can find your deviantart and livejournal because of it.

Next time you might want to try something like imgur.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh bloobloobloo.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't find either of them attractive, but then they just look like the hicks around here.

Wait, where is ugly!anon?

[(Anonymous)]

OP Norman never said that. Robert Kirkman was screwing with all of Daryl's female fans when he came up with that.

[(Anonymous)]

Pretty sure there are several interviews where he allegedly said that he played Daryl as closeted gay.

[(Anonymous)]

Whoever said it and why ever they said it first, Norman is actively posting interviews and articles in which he supports the concept. He doesn't know if that's the way the character will go, and the general feeling is that Daryl is a private character and his sexuality won't get explored any time soon.

[(Anonymous)]

Screwing with his female fans, really? You make it sound like they would all be against it and like it would be a personal insult.

Did I write this in my sleep?

[(Anonymous)]

I've actually had a theory about this for a very long time.
I didn't watch the show from the beginning, but after a while I thought "Daryll's never explicitly been seen attracted to a woman. Why don't they just make him gay? (or bi) There's nothing on the show to contradict it."

I don't ship him with any of the other guys on the show (I kind of ship him with Michonne and I'd be totally cool with Daryll/Carol happening in canon. I just REALLY hope Beth/Darryl doesn't happen)

But it'd be great to show a beloved character as not defined by his sexuality (but they should actually show him actually being with a man at some point, no erasure type bullshit)

The only problem I could see with this is that it would cause SO MUCH POLARIZATION in the fandom. A good portion of the fandom would be totally cool with it, but I wouldn't doubt it if a lot of the more conservative viewers stop (or at least threaten to stop) watching the show because of it.

I'd still watch the show if he turns out to be portrayed as exclusively straight, but it'd be great to have some more LGBT representation on such a popular show.

[(Anonymous)]

In a couple of hours your dreams will be crushed when he kisses Beth.

[(Anonymous)]

God, I fucking HOPE SO.

[elaminator]

The only person I ship Daryl with is Carol (If I was going to ship Daryl with a guy, it would probably be Rick. Predictable, but they have a bond and spend lots of time together), but I don't see this as a bad reason to watch. If you want to watch, watch, no matter your reason.

And I don't have a problem with Eugene as a character, but I'm not loving him yet either. As for the mullet...I don't think it suits him (I think the only person who call pull off a mullet is Solid Snake. HE makes it sexy), but whatever. It's the zombie apocalypse, they have bigger shit to worry about.

[tabaqui]

Daryl and Rick would be awesome, but only if Daryle and Carol doesn't happen. (luffs)

And, while i enjoy WD, it's been uneven to say the least, so saying you came back for the possibility of a character being gay isn't shallow. It would certainly have been an interesting development in the yawn-fest that was the Farm season and the Governor season(s).

[nayance]

The only reason I'd want Daryl to be gay is to shut down all the Caryl/Bethyl bullshit. Other than that I'd be unamused.

[(Anonymous)]

I always pictured Daryl asexual, but him being gay works with my headcanon too. Also I am kind of looking forward to where they go with Eugene and what he's able to do in the story. I hope they don't kill off his character for the sake of drama.

[(Anonymous)]

daryl's been setting off my gaydar since day 1 but... nty to eugene

[(Anonymous)]

SHIP ON, OP. It's all for fun, enjoy! Also dat mullet is cute as hell idgaf.

...That said- and I'm prefacing this by saying that I'm a lesbian and am all for lgbt representation- all of these "rumors" (which feel like Kirkman stirring shit because god forbid the show stands on its own merits and he doesn't wave his dick around like I AM THE MASTER) are really rubbing me the wrong way, I don't know how else to really put it. I don't like that it feels like it's a publicity thing, and that's the overwhelming impression I'm getting here.

WRT Daryl as a character... Look at his upbringing. Look at how he was raised. There is no way in hell he would EVER admit to being gay (and I hate that term but lbr that's probably how he would see it- he isn't Merle but that mindset is very hard to escape especially when you're already insecure). We saw how he reacted to Beth implying that he'd been to jail, can you even imagine how hard he would try to hide something like being gay? He's come really far as a character but having him act on anything like that- assuming that is how he feels- would be completely ooc. Not him being gay, but him acknowledging it and acting on it. He would never risk his place in the group by letting anything like that slip so imo it's pretty much a non-issue. I'd like to see this sort of thing done in fic over the course of a longer period of time tbh but idk about on the show. I don't really trust them to handle it in a way that isn't splashing DARYL DIXON IS GAY!!!! across headlines everywhere. And that just seems cheap.

...I have a lot of feelings about Daryl Dixon sorry f!s

[dharkapparition]

Eugene is disgusting. Is doesn't look like they've changed his character much from the comics and I won't be surprised by any shenannagins he gets up to. I can't see Daryl looking at him with anything but labored tolerance because he's such a waste of effort. Eugene talks great gamer tech speak and no one else in the group understands that..
