It’s zero percent interesting to you? And then you decided to click on it and tell us that?
It’s interesting to me. I am fond of Simmons and the work he did just by being so visible. While paradoxically being so private. If you find nothing interesting about that, geeze man, unclench.
Your entire tone, rhetorical posture – “body language” if you will – is extremely clenched.
His sexuality is important to me because he is an icon and an activist for people who are not hetero-normative in a time that was (and still is) aggressively hetero-normative. I am exploring my own sexuality and learning things about myself, and that is in part thanks to the space Simmons created with his kindness and bravery that I even have the opportunity to do that.
Sexuality isn’t the two or three labels people like to use. It’s a universe of individual sexualities. It would have been fascinating to be able to learn more about Simmon’s unique sexuality. It would be fascinating to learn about anyone’s (to a person with curiosity about sexuality), but especially his.
My genuine question to you. How the hell can you not see any of that. How can you be so triggered as to deny that and the millions of other reasons people might care could even exist. And why did you think we needed to know. You might not realize it but it come across as homophobic dog whistling.
Aaaaaand…. Why does this matter?

I’m genuinely curious- why is his sexuality important to you?
And I’m as “unclenched” as one can get. Maybe don’t read into things. I guarantee- It’ll serve you far better than your assumptions have.
