@@lecherouslibrarian9924 I agree with you, it's very important having straight men represented like Jake and Charles are, it's one of the things I love most about Brooklyn Nine Nine. However, I also think having someone like Jake as an out bi character would be great because it isn't often that you see lgbtq characters portrayed as in a hetero relationship, and I think it would mean a lot to a lot of people to see that. Also, usually with representation they sort of go by a "collect the whole set" sort of system where they have either one gay man, one lesbian etc or two of each so they can make pairings, and I think it would be cool to have two bi people in one show, you know?

honestly im happy to have a married straight white guy in the police who really doesn't care if he's affectionate or appreciative towards men. it's so rare we get male characters like that on TV who so openly express those types of emotions. and when we do see them, they're almost always associated with wanting to bang the same sex, which isn't a bad thing (everyone needs more representation in the media, this is coming from a bi gal). but the fact that we've only ever seen jake be involved with women, it's just niCe to see him openly admit to having crushes on guys and experiencing no shame or stigma doing so. i really hope it's starts a lot of guys doing the same thing. although i'm definitely not gonna pretend jake is entirely heterosexual, that man has some fEELINGS wow

[@angelicat-m8236]

I’m incredibly conflicted between having Jake as canonly bi or as a heterosexual person comfortable in their sexuality.

[@astridleblanc]

IMO we need more male characters who can show emotion and have healthy relationships with other dudes but, in this case I think we can have that AND bi rep. He's got such a good relationship with Charles and his first partner (I forget his name) in a solely platonic way. Even his relationship with Holt is healthy and emotional (even if it is mostly daddy issues). If they do make Jake bi it's also showing that bi men aren't just attracted to everything and they can actually have strong and meaningful friendships.

[@pesticide271]

well charles is straight and one of the "softest" men we've ever seen, he loves his son more than anything, is incredibly close to jake in a completely platonic way and unapologetically enjoys "feminine" things such as cooking and he expresses his appreciation of good looking men just as much as jake. i personally think that it would be better to keep him as the straight man while making jake bi so it normalises bi people in happy relationships with people from the opposite sex

[@morgaaaaaa]

honestly this show just does away with most typical sitcom tropes, so i have good faith that the writers are going to do well with however they take jake's storyline

[@blackk_rose_]

@@pesticide271 Agreed, we don't need two straight men like that, when we can have a straight AND a bi man instead. Especially because I never see people get a bi vibe from Charles, even though he and Jake often have conversations about men together. That has to mean something, there's just something different about the way Jake talks about guys. And how beautiful to have such an affectionate friendship between a straight and a bi man too! Also, apart from that, as important as it is to show that it's ok for men to be affectionate with one another and enjoy more "feminine" things, it's even more important to show that men can flirt with men too without it being a joke or them being "just comfortable in their sexuality".

[@annacibiniak2268]

Most of the guys on the show are comfortable with their sexualities and show a healthy form of masculinity but there’s a reason that nobody considers Charles or Terry as bi. The reason people think Jake is bi is not because he randomly thinks a few guys are attractive, it’s because gay and bi people recognise certain behaviours or even a certain “bi energy” if you will, in him. So yeah, healthy straight masculinity is important, but in a show that has a lot of that ALREADY I think it’s more important to show Bi men which are practically nonexistent in TV

[@deanderthal]

here's the story line I want: Jake has an 'old buddy' that he was 'super close with' that calls him up out of the blue/that he runs into. Jake doesn't explain that he's married, and the guy gets the wrong impression....turns out that from the friend's perspective they actually DATED and Jake is 'the one that got away' - hilarity ensues when Jake continually sends the wrong signals and then has to explain to this guy AND AMY that he's not trying to hook up and is happily married. Ends with a really good talk with Kevin (maybe Holt) and the revelation that Jake is maybe a little bi, but no real confirmation because the show likes to do that to us. Also subplot where Hitchcock and Scully have to lose weight to qualify for some police benefit/keep their jobs and Rosa, Charles, and Terry all try to help in different ways.

[@maryam-zk4vy]

[@daisyisnotreal]

The "buddy" should be played by John Mulaney

[@blackk_rose_]

Because I have no life, let's analyse this because I think some of these showcase very perfectly why Jake is seen as bi by so many. So I definitely think that some scenes are pretty much just there to be funny and have no deeper meaning, but I would look at them a little differently if he were to be confirmed bi. These are scenes like "hot perp alert" or "What are you doing after this, Gerald?". Some scenes that are supposed to be funny, however, do seem to go deeper than that, like his "coming out" speech. It feels too genuine to not matter to him as well and I don't feel satisfied with the explanation that he just perfectly managed to see the whole thing from Rosa's persepective. I also believe some scenes featured here show more of a professional admiration rather than attraction. Like when he meets police officers he admires that happen to be good-looking, I think it's obvious he's primarily awkward and interested in them because he admires them professionally. Though again, if he were to be confirmed bi, I think attraction might as well be a part of that. The more compelling scenes, in my opinion, are those where he ernestly agrees with female characters who are into guys that some guy is hot, especially when other straight male characters do not have the same reaction. For example, the very first scene where his facial expression not just shows his agreement with Gina but it's pretty much the same as Amy's as well. Also the second scene where he says he's with Rosa that you can hate someone and still think they're hot AFTER she provides her example and Charles looks appalled. Then there are moments when he admires guys who are physically attractive. I feel like there are three categories: jealousy, admiration and attraction. What matters here, is the tone. When he talks about Melvin, for example, you can tell he's just jealous and Charles points that out as well. It's totally different to how he says "he's so strong" about Terry. However, I do think the tone in which he says that about Terry is still quite different from the one he uses when he says "Brazilian mobsters are so good-looking". There is really no heterosexual explanation for the latter while I find that the comment about Terry could still be read as simple admiration without attraction thrown into the mix. And last but definitely not least, the "there's no heterosexual explanation for this moments". I already mentioned the Brazilian mobsters, but there's also: Brandon Bliss. The way he said "He was hot, Rosa", which I find very different to other times when he described guys as hot. The reaction Gina has when Jake says "We all had a big crush on A. C. Slider, get in line". And especially "My God, you're even more stunning up close" and "You're under arrest, you beautiful man". Like, non of this is heterosexual, not just the statements themselves but especially in combination with his facial expressions and the way he says it. So yeah, when will they finally make it canon that Jake Peralta is bi?

Unpopular opinion, but this is just my thought on it. I think Jake is straight, but he is a perfect example of positive masculinity. Like, he openly cares about his guys friends emotions and opinions, he’s verbally and physically affectionate to them, and overall he can appreciate the fact that guys can look hot too, without wanting to get with them. But if he is bi, cool. I just find straight Jake cool too, cause of how open minded he is and how he treats everyone he loves with the same amount affection.

I used to think Jake just appreciated men physically but nah he really does give me bi vibes. It’s probably just his schtick tho, being that goofy, open minded, I love everyone character.

Anyone says Acab: THEY SAY IT TOO!! Season 8 was Confirmed To be About the Blm Protests!!

[@HauntingMarikh]

Where was it confirmed?

it has come out yet so no. Don't give premature praise.

Miss they said that they scrapped some season 8 episodes to rewrite them about blm

when he helped rosa come out he got so into it like it’s something he’s been wanting to say for a while. no one just has that speech at the top of their head.

[@randomopotato]

It would be hilarious if one day he meets his "friend" from high school and introduces him to the 99 then the friend is just like "wha--are you joking!? What do you mean 'friends'. We weren't friends?? Yo we were bf" "...wha..."

[@Yellow-sawyer]

I also feel like the fact that he helped Rosa come out as bi, could have been foreshadowing for him also being bi.

[@amandaenriquezstudent8854]

i heard him start the speech and went "shit no this is too real no straight person can say this with that much clarity i mean even rosa can see that look at her face"

[@PatyTWD]

Kinda was...🤔

[@sofiarigamonti1489]

Okay so, if we take out some things that a lot of people could interpret as “non-toxic masculinity” there’s still two scenes (maybe more but these two specifically) that I feel like it only means he’s bi. First scene: he literally says he had a crush on a guy, I don’t think any straight man even if they’re super comfortable with their sexuality would say that. Second scene: when he was helping Rosa at first he was of course helping her to come out, but then you can’t denie that it got personal.

[@clemmiemayhew456]

not necessarily for the first one, I'm straight and I've definitely had girl crushes before

[@chill3845]

@@clemmiemayhew456 then you are not straight. lol your sexuality isn't based on your current partner's gender

@@chill3845 I'm not normally attracted to women, like sometimes if I saw a girl who's like, super hot id be like oh she's so pretty but I wouldn't be attracted to them u know

@@clemmiemayhew456 that's not really a crush, you just thought they looked good People can be aesthetically pleasing/ attractive w/out you wanting to date them like a crush

[@visiblycomfortable]

i’m hoping next season they have him come out because he’s already married as a way of just saying that just because bisexuals like both doesn’t mean they cheat and won’t be loyal, that would just about complete me

[@aviezerscop401]

If Amy found out Jake was bi, she'd just be super happy that he chose her over EVERYONE, instead of just all females.

[@Urmomisdele]

I think the writers made these kinds of scenes for comedy and since people have started pointing out that he could very well be bi they started toning it down in season 7 because they don’t like him being bi and just made it for comedy

[@user-lz5nd8lh8b]

it would be hella cool if they had 3 lgbt main characters

[@pigeon2584]

I feel like they should make him openly bi but like have the story set to that he's een open about being bi for such a long time that people just find it obvious except Hitchcock and scully and that's how they make it canon

[@fredddielewis]

As much as I would love it, I think Jake is just comfortable with his sexuality.

[@brookevangelderen704]

Me too, there's also the theory that he doesn't know it yet, but I think that he's just comfortable. It would be fun though 🤗

[@prairieN]

He says he has crushes on men! Charles is the straight man who is comfortable with his sexuality. Jake is bi. Stop bi erasure.

[@fredddielewis]

@@prairieN ok, no one's tryna get rid of bi people.

[@prairieN]

@@fredddielewis erasure isn't getting rid of :) It looks more like saying someone isn't bi or calling them gay or straight Of course sexuality is fluid
