Was Ennis Gay?

<< < (5/12) > >>

David In Indy:
I am certain Ennis was gay. The infamous "closet scene" at the end only reinforced this.

That was  true love.

Katie77:
I voted 'bi' because i think he was struggling to identify what he was.......

But as an observer, I think he looked more comfortable making love with a bloke than he did with a lady.......

twistedude:
Poor lady! GIMMIE A BREAK...

JT:
I think Ennis is a deeply closeted gay.  He's only at peace with himself when he with Jack (a man).

delalluvia:
After all this time...I don't know.  I'm leaning heavily toward the repressed gay, but in the story/movie you get the biggest impression that even Ennis isn't sure.

He loves Jack, that's beyond doubt, but allowed himself to go into male/female relationships as well, in the story he admits he likes sex with women, but in the movie, had Cassie not been aggressive, it doesn't look like Ennis would have gone with her or was never trolling for women.

But of course you also get the impression Ennis wouldn't have gone after any man either.

However, when someone is deeply in love, sometimes they don't even look at another person that way because they don't want to.

It seems Ennis has a healthy sex life with and without Jack, but it also appears he can go without sex for long periods of time without a problem.

Could he been one of those people who describe themselves as 'asexual'?  People who can take or leave sex?

Ennis gay or not?  I can't say with any certainty but Proulx and Lee were certain that he was, so that settles that.
