I don't know if they're gay, but they all look about fourteen to me.

I can't believe I know this. There is a die-hard group of 1D tween fans who are convinced that Louis and Harry are not only a couple, but are married, at whatever tender age they are. Maybe even have a baby. These Larry shippers would rather these boys be gay and involved with each other rather than entertain the idea of any of them with another girl, or even another guy. FWIW, I'm sure Harry is gay. Can't say about the others. My DD doesn't fixate on this aspect at all, she laughs at the shippers.

Isn't it a statistic that one guy out of every boy band is gay?

all boy bands give off that metrosexual vibe. they will "come out" when they've passed their appeal for tween girls, e.g., Lance Bass, Ricky Martin. For now, who really cares.

I guess that is why I am asking. I spent Christmas with my preteen nieces who went on and on about One Direction. Would it traumatize them to know they are gay? I am not going to say it to them, but I am curious.

Not traumatize them, but kill half the appeal. All of those little girls are fantasizing about Harry singing to them, about him being their boyfriend

They'll be fine with it. Teen girls are very accepting of bisexuality, and won't bat an eyelash or stop having a crush.

Gay isn't the same thing as bisexual.

Based on the rumors Niall is the only straight one.

I have heard Louis is and some others.

Why do you care?

Are they gay or is all of the horseplay intentional to drum up rumors? Why don't they just come out of the closet? It's 2014, I think the 8 - 14 year old girls can handle the truth.
