Of course not! He's an innocent man-child.

Ask him to take you to the cinema and you will find out.

It's that man again!!

Well, on Pee-Wee's Playhouse, he looked up Miss Yvonne and other female characters' skirts a number of times, as well as making sexual innuendos with them.

So no, he's not gay. He's just an immature man-child.

If you go on YouTube, you can watch a number of early talk show appearances from the mid to late 80s. There's one where he explains the origins of the character to Letterman.

He is listed as bi-sexual http://www.nndb.com/people/251/000025176/here, but for all practical purposes, yeah, gay.

You might think he's gay the way he kept blowing off Dottie in Big Adventure.
