Gotham is penguin gay

Maybe he is asexual and striving emotional attachment? R obin Lord Taylor, who plays the Penguin on Fox's Gothamhas been vocal about his own personal experiences with homophobia in the past. What many of us had believed was true since the first season of Gotham, when Edward Nygma rescued Penguin and nursed him back to health, was eventually confirmed when the show had Penguin admit that he openly loves the Riddler.

Over the weekend at Rhode Island Comic Con, the actor spoke about his biggest aggravation when it comes to talks about his character's sexuality. It almost sounds like Taylor was saying that Oswald was starving for love and acceptance and would grasp onto it in any form.

At the very least, Penguin has sociopathic.

Gotham’s Robin Lord Taylor

He mentions that while many fans say they have no issues with the Penguin being gay or queer, they also contradictorily make note that this is a deviation from the character in the comics. Here's the response I was waiting for. Or does he not need to be defined?

In a recorded clip from the event, embedded below, Taylor expresses his thoughts over the characterization of the iconic villain. Labeling Penguin as gay, or even bisexual, and rooting for this couple assumes that they are a normal LGBT relationship, and they aren't at all.

We're right there with you! Does Taylor think that the Penguin is bisexual? Would it break from history so much that it would disrupt the flow of Oswald Cobblepot's story? Could they do this? More so a nurture instead of nature explanation of sexuality.

But we do love your argument, Robin Lord Taylor. I paused often thinking that it shouldn't matter, but I did want to find out what had been written before. Is he straight and is this just a bromance? If anything, Gotham's Penguin is asexual as he displays no real attractions or desires for any woman - or man.

Is he looking to have sex? It is interesting that people are focusing on this alteration, but not some of the other major tangents and changes that have occurred in the canon.
