lol What? From what I've seen, fandom wise, it's the opposite. He's 100% homosexual, and totes has the hots for Batman.

Nah, the Joker isn't homosexual, heterosexual, or bi-sexual. The Joker is Batmansexual.

Actually if you were to ask him what his sexuality was I don't think he'd even understand the question. Then he'd cut you from ear to ear, or possibly draw on you with a crayon, to the Joker there really isn't a difference.

Makes sense. I never thought about the Joker having a sexuality. I guess I imagined that any sexual harrassment he made were just to creep people out, like with everything else he does.

I think he's situational-sexual. He'll do whatever and whoever to get his jollies.

Wow. And all this time I thought being Not Straight was just about not being exclusively attracted to the opposite sex rather than a conscious choice to buck the system and become a mass-murdering sociopath for shits and literal giggles. To think, all this time I've been Not Straight totally wrong! Good thing I have all these internet anons to show me the light!

/sarcasm

Also, heterosexual =/= heteronormative, JFC.

Honestly, I didn't know this was such a big deal. Doesn't he have a thing for Batman and Quinn?

[identity profile] quiscula.livejournal.com 2011-04-03 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I seem to recall in Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth, Joker did indeed mess with Batman's heteronormality to better fuck with him. To make a pun.

I don't think Joker has any limits, and I think most fans know that.

[identity profile] xdualismx.livejournal.com 2011-04-03 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I get what you mean. I'm no expert in Batman canon, but from everything I've seen, Joker is so beyond sanity, classifying him in a traditional way feels impossible. I personally see him more as a sadist. There are real life sadistic serial killers who have no problem raping or even having consensual bdsm sex with a person of their own gender, dispate identifying as straight.

tl;dr: If he does it, he does it for teh lulz.

(Anonymous) 2011-04-03 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I've always thought of the Joker as either asexual or something I've termed "for-the-lulz-sexual"- he just does whatever if he either thinks it will get a reaction, or to fuck with people, or just because he damn well wants to.

[identity profile] p-drunkwriting.livejournal.com 2011-04-03 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't really care much about the Joker's sexuality or lack thereof, but this secret is worded badly.

It's like you're saying that just because he lacks morality and doesn't gaf about society or/and its standards, he is more likely to be homosexual/bisexual/pansexual/etc than if he was a "morally correct" character. It's very problematic, you see?

[identity profile] lilweirdomokyn.livejournal.com 2011-04-03 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
When I saw this secret, my first thought was, "Maybe he's like Lisbeth Salander. If they want sex, they'll go with whoever they want, because they just don't give a damn about what the world thinks."

Only half on topic, I know, but I only recently finished Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and its still fresh in my mind.

[identity profile] la-petite-singe.livejournal.com 2011-04-03 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I quite agree. I have a great fascination/love of sociopathic characters, him included, and I tend to assume that they'd fuck anything that took their fancy because they don't care at all about society's opinions and, you know, much about the other person as well. They're not gonna fall in love with anyone; it's really just about using other people. So why the hell would it just be someone of the opposite sex?

[identity profile] childings.livejournal.com 2011-04-03 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't get the correlation between his behavior or philosophy and sexual orientation. Are you saying because he displays deviant behavior then he can't be straight? What the hell are you implying?

I know little about this fandom, but still... WTF? what having consideration for society's norms has to do with being gay?

I really doubt the Joker cares about mundane matters like what genitals the person he's screwing has, so I agree. I don't see any writers having a huge problem with this interpretation either, especially given stuff like this:

people think the joker's straight? he at the very least has a thing for batman. i thought this was common knowledge?

you'd best not be implying that "deviant" people have to be not straight :\

b/c if you are then you're a beslubbering swag-bellied boar-pig

[identity profile] xanykaos.livejournal.com 2011-04-04 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
Yeeee-eaahh, this...comes off as implying that the Joker shouldn't be straight because he's weird. I know that's not how you meant it, but still.

I'm mostly reminded of the issue of Flash where Pied Piper came out of the closet (in fact, I think Piper was the first openly gay DC character). The whole thing happened because Wally was saying that he thought the Joker must be gay--for almost exactly the same reasons you gave. He then added that "you can always tell" with "people like that."

Piper says from what he's heard the Joker isn't gay--isn't anything but crazy and hurtful. Then he tells Wally he can't think of any gay supervillains. "Except for me. But you knew that already, didn't you?"

At any rate, implying that the Joker might not be straight is hardly a new thing, even in the comics. Read Azzarello's Joker. The subtext is but a word scramble from buttsex.

Um... what? I don't know anyone who thinks the Joker is 100% hetero.
