He could have been hetero-romantic, and sexually gay. Or it’s also possible that she was the only woman he loved.
Sexuality is weird. Anything goes. People get crazy about it when they try to control it. It’s sex. It’s uncontrollable. Just get out of the way of it, and everyone will be a lot happier.
I don’t know much about Freddy Mercury (or even sexuality), but couldn’t it also be possible that he STRONGLY admired her, just not in a sexual or romantic way?
Like, could he be saying something like “if I were into women, I would have married you in a heartbeat”?
I’m a straight guy and I have friends that I feel similar about
He really, absolutely loved her, and she did love him profoundly back. After this, it gets complicated. Maybe she couldn’t bear knowing he was having sex relationships with men. Maybe the issue was the AIDS wave from one or both of their perspectives; Freddy wouldn’t risk her or she wouldn’t risk herself. Maybe she demanded monogamy and he couldn’t give her that. It’s complicated.
No, I’m saying that straight people with 0% repressed bisexuality typically don’t think about whether or not they would marry their same-sex mates if they were only a little more gay…

…rrriiiggghhhttt, cause that’s something that someone who’s not even a little bit bi in any way would say, okay…
You saying a straight person has to be Bi to love an opposite gender person in a non romantic way?

Or get in the way, if that’s your thing
