Higgs' sexual orientation

edit

Hi @Tcrvocbth2:, where in the two references does it state Higgs is "gay"? In the first of the two, an interview with the Quietus, Higgs actually says "I recorded it, showed it to my girlfriend and she said […]". The other two articles only seem to mention a "partner".

Oh, wow! That's interesting. I intentionally looked up articles where the word "partner" was mentioned, as I couldn't find mentions of a "boyfriend". People in forums related to Everything Everything (e.g. r/everythingeverything on Reddit) tend to refer to his partner with male pronouns, so I assumed his gender was known but his identity was not. It's possible I've made a mistake; I will look into it. Tcrvocbth2 (talk) 16:50, 16 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
It's possible that I made misinterpreted the meaning of the frequently used word "partner" in its LGBTQ+ connotation. Tcrvocbth2 (talk) 16:50, 16 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
Okay. The interview from The Quietus where he mentions his girlfriend is quite old, from 2013. Things might have changed since then, who knows… I went with the information from The Independent's article which is from this year. Robby.is.on (talk) 09:16, 18 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
