Does anyone think Smith is legitimately bisexual? I know it's possible to come out as bi later in life, but he was an out gay man just a few years ago. I'm sure there are plenty of women who would sleep with him. I just have to question whether he has legitimate attraction to women.

Stating he would date a woman if he's not actually bisexual, is this internalized homophobia? Or is it internalized misandry (is that even a thing?) that he's saying he's no longer a man? I feel bad for him that he seems to have such turmoil over sex and gender, but I find his whole deal very confusing.

I think Sams Smiths is saying he's so hard up that he's open to dating/shagging anyone who might be interested in hims. Sams complains that finding someone to date in London is so incredibly difficult as to be basically impossible - which is the opposite experience of most human beings who've lived in or visited that metropolis of 9-10 million people for many generations.

But no, I don't think anyone with any intelligence or understanding of human sexuality thinks Sams Smiths is legitimately bisexual. I don't think he is attracted to women; I don't think he's capable of even seeing women. He's an attention-seeking narcissist, sexist and misogynist who is quick to take umbrage and who seems like he might also be a fetishist. Not exactly qualities that most people are looking for in a date or life partner.

Or maybe his mental health issues are getting in the way of him having a relationship. He's a conventionally attractive man and a rich and famous one to boot. Theoretically, he should have no trouble getting dates.

To be fair to Smith, I don't think he's ever harmed anyone, has he? I guess I view him more as a lost soul. I feel sorry for him. It's pretty clear that he has issues that aren't being helped by the mainstream media playing into this fantasy that he's no longer male.
