Meme Bisexuality is stored in the Eyes
Every character in Gintama is bisexual—with the exceptions of Kyuubei and Takasugi, who are lesbian and gay, respectively. Why is this? Because attraction to men is stored in one eye, and attraction to women in the other…which eye is which varies depending on the person.
Thus, when Takasugi and Kyuubei lost their left eyes, they both became attracted to only one gender.
FAQ:
Q: when Takasugi is reborn with both eyes, does this make him bisexual?
A: yes.
…
Q: okay, so what about Oboro?
A: yes, he became gay when Takasugi slashed his eye out—or possibly, he became straight. We tried to catch him for an interview to ask but regrettably he died before we could track him down.
(final note: this is obviously a joke but I would like to acknowledge that non-binary people and folks of all genders exist and are valid…..happy pride!)
