You know what also explains these things? Reading.

Wow.

"Goram it kid, let's frak this thing and go home! Engage!"



Kind of agree with storymark, gay is not the same thing as pedophile.

Though there's way too much subtext in a few of the Batman and Robin relationships and I'm not even gonna go there, beyond to say most of comes from the Robins, less so much Batman.

Batman is... probably asexual? Or bi, he has a thing with catwoman and seems to have something with superman.

I've seen it broken down on other forums:

Bruce: straight or asexual (Batman normally has no interest in any relationships.)

Dick: straight (romantically linked to Starfire, Barbara, and god knows who else.)

Jason: unknown

Tim: probably straight (dating Stephanie, kissed Wonder Girl, yet turned down Ravager cold, and tried obsessively to resurrect Superboy [which he didn't do when he thought Steph was dead].)

Damian: tsundere / whatever others don't want him to be. ;)

Selina: probably straight

Barbara: straight (romantically linked to Dick.)

Cassie Cain: unknown (she once made out with Superboy, but expressed no real interest in him otherwise.)

Stephanie: straight (dating Tim.)

Kate Kane: lesbian (formerly romantically linked to Renee)

Alfred: probably straight (he was apparently a talented womanizer in his youth)

Commissioner Gordon: straight (married twice, once divorced, once widower)

Harvey Bullock: probably straight

Renee Montoya: lesbian (formerly romantically linked to Kate, faced discrimination in the GCPD)

Nick Gage: probably straight (turned down a relationship with Barbara because he could tell there was someone else [Dick] in the picure.)

He also married and had a son with Talia al Ghul.


What reason had proved best ceased to look absurd to the eye, which shows how idle it is to think anything ridiculous except what is wrong.

Let's just call his life extremely dysfunctional and leave it at that.
