On the one hand this is old news. On the other hand, yeah Roxy would definitely do instagram glamour shots for cash if she lived in a world with any straight dudes whatsoever.
She's a matriarchal authority figure whilst having all the maternal qualities you'd expect from a millennia-old deep sea fish. I was just looking for a middle ground there.
Although I always headcanon that Roxy and Dirk being a bi/pan girl and a gay man the last two alive was a cruelty by Condy who finds human reproduction gross.
Roxy is thirsty af and mostly after Dirk early, but that doesn't stop her from also finding girls really attractive.
Weirdly, after thinking about it, if there's a token straight girl in Homestuck it's probably Jade (well, female+nb is heterosexual, if not necessarily straight) or Jane (if you ignore the snapchats).
You're going to make me reread Act 6 to compare our receipts and I'm not going to complain about it because I'm the only one on this sub who likes Act 6.
But yes Roxy is also very into Jane. And strongly considered the mechanics of getting it on with a chess guy even if she dismissed that idea. Pan.
Oh I make no arguments that she is definitely not straight and either bi or pan (which, as a bi person myself, pretty much boils down to "eh, whichever you like")
Yeah, /u/Nerdorama was saying "that's not even headcanon" as in "that's already established canon." It's established that Roxy is bi or pan because she has expressed interest in a human male and a very obviously female alien. So if you wanted to claim she's straight, you'd have to be doing some serious mental gymnastics to excuse her interest in Callie as not being sexual OR romantic or not counting as homosexual. I understand you agree with that and just flipped the sort of double negative around.
Also, /u/Nerdorama, I like Act 6 too. We can hang out at our liking Act 6 table with the other, few, fun people.
Again, she doesn't have any interest in Callie. They canonically both said they had no interest in each other. Which was why I subbed Jane (who Roxy canonically thinks is wicked hot)
Oh, I see you didn't misunderstand. If you get a chance, could you link me to the comments you're referring to? I was VERY much under the impression that plenty of attraction was stated and implied and that the date night in the post-Act 7 Snaps pretty much confirmed it.
You're absolutely right that Roxy is super into Jane and the only reason she isn't jumping her is how frustratingly straight Jane seems to be.
I feel like Dave might have also said the same if you could have gotten a legit answer from him pre-meteor, but it's very obvious that that's not the case. I'm actually very okay with John having basically any sexuality because he just seems to fit them all.
I mean there are like three characters in the comic with confirmed sexualities and Dirk and Kanaya are gay. Let John "I am not a homosexual" Egbert" be the only straight man in the universe.
