Queen

Were the other members of Queen gay too, and if not what where and are their political views on homosexuality? Thanks 81.131.40.58 (talk) 13:26, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

Both Brian May and Roger Taylor are married to women, which implies that they are heterosexual to some degree. In current times, it is impossible to label a person as being homosexual or heterosexual or any of the billions of variations someone might make up. As for their views, they strongly supported AIDS charities, which were seen at the time as supporting homosexuality. I feel it is important to note that they are not American, so they don't have prudish American attitudes towards sexuality. 12.207.168.3 (talk) 14:02, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

John Deacon is also married to a woman. I remember at the height of their fame seeing an article comparing Freddie (gay, arts background) with the other three (straight, science/engineering education), and enthusing at how well they got on together. Rojomoke (talk) 16:33, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
