I am not asking whether or not Bowie was homosexual in his sexual orientation (in actuality, he could be said to be bisexual, though that may or may not be true- I think he was interested in just women).
What I am asking is if you consider his act, his mannerisms, and his music "gay."
For example, Freddie Mercury is fucking awesome (Queen is probably my second favorite rock act after Bowie). He was also most certainly gay, whether you were talking about his act, his mannerisms, or his music. Elton John is one of my favorite singers- and (in addition to being attracted to men) his entire act was gay.
So please understand that I do not mean it as a pejorative or put-down. Bowie is my second favorite musical artist of all time, and I do not care whether or not he was actually homosexual.
Ok, if this isn't making any sense, imagine this scenario.

Person A: Want to go grab dinner and then see the George Michael concert?
Person B: Uhhhh, dude, you do realize that we're not dating.
Now, replace "George Michael" with "Led Zeppelin" in the first scenario. Completely reasonable question, and Person B likely says yes without thinking twice.
Where does "David Bowie" fall in on this George Michael/LedZeppelin concert scenario scale?
