This is my conclusion on Chet:
At first I didn't think he was gay either. I thought he was just a guy who was probably a bit sheltered and a bit ignorant and that was why he was so caught up in the whole "people think i'm gay" situation.
And I could relate because for the longest time, people assumed i was a lesbian because of my mannerisms and the way i dressed, to the point where everything i did was to prove the point that i liked guys. so, in my mind, he was just a straight, mormon guy who was into fashion. no big deal.
then i was watching one of the real world dailies where ryan was telling chet that they were going to Chelsea(a predominantly- gay district in new york). You can watch it for yourself. there was a specific moment that instantly screamed out to me :chet likes boys.
as much as he's trying to prove to others that he's straight, its pretty obvious to me that Chet is actually trying to convince himself that he's not gay. He's trying to repress any sorts of feelings or attractions he has to other men by constantly stating how much he likes girls, how he wants to attract girls( by wearing eyeliner), how he likes to dance with girls etc.
He's very insecure about his sexuality.
I personally find this extremely fascinating but very unfortunate. I have a couple of Mormon friends and they tell me that if someone came out as homosexual, they'd be excommunicated from the church.
wow... i wrote a lot. :/
