Re: Question about Good Omens show

They're definitely a couple and demonstrate love for each other. Both the book and the series end with Aziraphale and Crowley realizing that they're more important to each other than their previous relationships with Heaven/Hell.

Whether that's "gay" in Eurocentric shipping terms is a religious question about a work that lampoons religion. My vote is canonically no, but I ship it regardless.

Yes, this. It is undeniably, explicitly, a love story. It's not a kissing story. (But there's a lot of room for kissing behind the scenes.)

I'm totally good with that! I was mainly curious whether there was something that explicitly ruled out a romantic interpretation (should've worded my initial post better!) and it sounds like there's not, so...yay? lol.

Alright, thanks. Everybody here seems to agree that it's open to interpretation and I'm good with that, I just didn't want something that specifically rules out a queer interpretation.

Hmm. Maybe I'm just dumb, but what exactly do you mean?

There are some pretty strong arguments about the degree to which "gay" primarily represents white and cis men. Aziraphale and Crowley are not human, not human men, and in spite of casting, not human men from Europe. But since they're also theological creatures, it's like debating whether either of them would dance on the head of a pin. (My Gods fuck, but they're not a part of book or the show.)

Personally I think nonbinary people who participate in gay community are gay since real-world identity is messy and intersectional in that way.
