"Yeah. He's doesn't show any signs of being gay. Xavier is very prestigious judeo-christian high school. If he IS closeted. He'd be out by now."
Oh, yeah. Everyone knows gay people don't attend "prestigious judeo-christian" high schools, because everyone knows there are no gay Jews or gay Christians. LOL
"He's doesn't show any signs of being gay." Oh, really? And just what signs should one look for? Does he talk with a lisp? Wear eyeliner? Lip gloss?
Does he show any signs of being straight? Hmmm.
But most theater people are gay, and Pitoc does theater, so by your pseudo-logic, he must be gay. Yeah.
It's amusing the way you accept5b4 stereotypes as easily as little children accept Santa Claus, then use stereotypes to reach conclusions that fit your preconception that Pitoc is not gay. -

"Regarding questions of him being gay, I can confirm that as of high school days, unless he was closeted, he was not gay, although some people liked saying he was (probably just because he was in drama club or something).
Had he been gay, he would have had a very rough time because it was a Catholic school and there were a lot of homophobic people there. "
It seems to me that if he was gay in a high school with, as you say, "a lot of homophobic people", then he would probably have been closeted. And if he was closeted, how would you know he was not gay?
In other words, you can't confirm anything. You are merely trying to force a conclusion that fits your preconception or bias.
BTW, there are a lot of homophobic people at most high schools, not just Catholic high schools. Nevertheless, gay people do attend high schools, even Catholic high schools, even homophobic, Catholic high schools. Also, many gay people don't come out until their 20s.
How many out gay students did you know of at your high school? And if you of any, would you conclude that all gay students at your high school were out?
How would you know a student was gay if he wasn't out?
LOL
