Leo DiCaprio doesn't like his rep as a womanizer

He is very aware that everything he does will be commented on, so goes out of his way to be extra polite. More polite than a non-celebrity would be, or I am. Tips very well. Doesn't pretend to remember my name but acknowledges he recognizes me. "hey man, good to see you again"

I have seen women intelligent, attractive, accomplished women go insane being in the same room with him.

It would be impossible to be normal in his shoes.


That sounds so tiring after a while. Your guard can never be down.


It does sound tiring and I wonder if he could go back in time would be choose to do Titanic again and be propelled into next level stardom and inspire almost psychotic reactions in women.
I'm sure in some ways it's been fun and a wild ride.
But he is human and you'd have to think that all gets old at some point and maybe he would trade it all for a lower level of fame

But the model thing is contractual.


But there must be a printed issue of that Interview magazine. I really want to see that interview now and how significant it is really.
Pretty sure he is just another Hollywood alpha male enjoying having beautiful young women throwing themselves at him. For decades.


Leo had a role in a film where he played a young gay post involved in a live triangle

The interview was probably spun to play up that aspect.

Or maybe he was figuring out his sexuality at the time not uncommon for a 20 something

https://www.interviewmagazine.com/film/leonardo-dicaprio-ingrid-sischy-1994-cover-story

He was laying in a bed with Paula Shore talking about sex.


Nothing in that article says he was questioning his sexuality or implied that he might be gay.

It was Pauly Shore who had a detailed conversation with him about sex and women when he was 14 or 15.
All this article does is point out that he's been sexualized for a very long time starting when he was underage. Which no doubt has screwed up his ideas on relationships.
And as some posters mentioned a few pages back may actually be a coping method for genuine trauma.

+ 1. I once saw a video of a young Leo in the set of Growing Pains and there was an older male can't remember if it was an actor or what but he was an adult. The guy is a known child abuser and he was all over him touching and flirting it literally made me sick
And given what we now know happened to a lot of kid stars in the 80s and I would not be surprised at all.

Would totally explain the bizarre surface level relationships.

PP who dated the abusive DJ here. Yes, this is likely. Look at how Leo DiCaprio treats them like pretty ornaments - why would he be faithful? His "boys" probably come first and they'd feel threatened if he actually fell in real love and put a woman before them. (Again...my ex had this dynamic too.) If you look at Leo's history with Tobey Maguire and some of the stuff they've done together, going back to the Nineties and including a rapey film they made, you'll see the same pattern.


Perhaps you should spend time in therapy instead of worrying about the live life of a man you don't know and projecting your issues with your ex onto him because you don't like a movie he made

Oh grow the F up. We get it, you hate women. We're over it. Go wail about us to your bathroom buddies, okay? Or ask your mom for a pacifier.

Well it would be weird to hate women given I am one. I'm just not going to accuse a man of rape and abuse without actual evidence. That's not feminism. That's insanity.

If you want to make wild accusations without accountability Twitter is probably a better fit for you.

You could just be projecting

You could just be a rapist.


That's uncalled for.. Rape is a serious crime. Not a comeback for someone pointing out that your reaction is disproportionate and not based on facts

What, don't like it when someone makes assumptions about you? Then don't do it either. Thanks for playing.


I said you were projecting your issues with your jerk onto aman you don't know and deciding he was a cheater because of that and a rapist because of a movie role.
I point out that that's ridiculous and you likely need therapy.
You then accuse me of being a rapist as some sort of gotcha.
That's imbalanced and poor debate skills.
Seek help or stay on Twitter

I'm actually not the original PP who dated a DJ, but looks like I saw you for what you are. I can call you whatever the hell I perceive you to be if you clearly want to run around telling women they need therapy instead of actually addressing their points. Don't like it? Then don't make ad hominem attacks yourself. You are nobody to speak of "debate skills" because I saw EXACTLY what you did up there with the original PP. You ignored every point she made, didn't evaluate the film she mentioned, and made a reductionistic "argument" (that's being generous) that ignored everything in her post in favor of your little misogynist judgment. I saw it. She saw it. Likely hundreds other saw it - I haven't read this whole thread.

Take your gaslighting and shove it up your a**, why don't you?

It's really messed up how comfortable adults were with discussing sex and the sex lives of teens back in the 80s and 90s

You are now derailing the thread and being abusive.

Time for you to stop

If you were a child actor I assume you at least had some inappropriate interactions with adults. Hollywood is toxic and the powerful in charge are narcissists and sexual predators.

I don’t believe this. Why do it? I don’t think he would have trouble getting cast.


If he's gay I could see him hiding that early in his career. Coming out in the 90s ass gay men would have killed his career before it started.

He'd probably be okay if he came out now. Especially since he doesn't always play the romantic lead

DP. I think he’s gay but I don’t think he’s still with Lukas Haas. And I don’t think you can come out that easily when you have been faking so hard for so many years. It makes him look kind of bad. Plus it also makes the women who went into these contractual relationships look bad too.

,

I'll admit I don't think he's gay but I think now is a time he could come out and receive a lot of support and understanding for it.

I don't think it makes anyone look bad. I think only people who have zero understanding of how horrible homophobic this country was until very recently would have a problem with it.

That's if he's gay.

I happen to think he has a multitude of issues and fearing coming out isn't one of them

Yes . And I think Leo has gone from most likely having inappropriate interactions to being someone toxic. Not willing to call him a predator yet.
But definitely engaged in unhealthy behavior.
I think Clooney even once said he's Leo was surrounded by a bunch of fake yes people.
He's got no depth in his life and doesn't seem to want it.

Despite this so called insider says he feels.
Actions speak louder than words.

I will give him credit for at least not bringing a wife and kids into whatever he's got going on.

Whether he’s gay, has deeply rooted intimacy issues, or just has no interest in marriage- perhaps he views dating young women as a kindness. They have fun together, the woman probably knowingly enters the relationship knowing it has an expiration date, she benefits from the fame and money, and then they go their separate ways when she turns 25, with plenty of time for the woman to move on in their career and personal lives- like gisele, bar rafaeli, etc.

Isn’t there some quid pro quo with his relationships? My understanding is secretly he’s getting paid to “date” these women and have someone to attend events with while they get a career boost for being with him. Amazingly he’s never really dated a super famous woman and nobody he’s ever dated has come out and said anything nasty about him. His relationships in the romance department seem mostly contrived.

Knowing Hollywood, this is coming from his camp, and he will soon magically find a long-term relationship with an appropriate woman, much like Clooney did. Clooney got the best press/career boost of his life because of Amal, and he was in a similar position to Leo at the time (I think he was actually dating young reality TV stars or something at the time).
