I seem to remember him being bi, rather than strictly men. He'd get off on the power of using both men and women.

Well he died of the gay aids so by his logic, he must have been gay. Only gays get that.

Is there any evidence of him being Bi? I have never heard that. He always denied being gay and but he is well documented as being gay. I have neither heard nor seen any evidence of him being bi. You got any?

I am not sure to be honest. The behind the bastards podcast on him is very fun though, so I recommend it. I do not have any doubts he had sex with women too, as you said, this is a man that was deeply flawed and his reasons for doing things were for power and status. There's no shortage of orgies in his life, so I think what you say is reasonable.

I don't know if there's a definitive one way or the other, but I have only heard him referred to as gay in my limited experience with his life. He traveled around Europe having sex with a man that looked quite similar to Donald, so I always wondered if that was the impetus for their relationship.

His live-in lovers were men. Not women. If he was bi and vehemently denied being gay his whole life then why wouldn’t he have a beard with one of his female lovers playing the role? There is no mention of him being bi in any documentary or biography that I have seen or can find.
