""I've never felt massively feminine in my being female. I've always described myself to my husband as a gay man. And he goes, 'Yeah, I get that' And so I do feel at home and at ease. I feel like I have a foot in various camps. I know many people who do. I don't really spend an awful lot of time with people who are very staunchly heterosexual.""
"'Olivia [Colman] suggesting she's effectively a gay man because she has short hair and is attracted to men is patronising and insulting. Does she think homosexuality is hairstyles?'"
"The X post, which saw a lot of backlash, referenced a comment Colman made in an interview with Them about the movie which is about a bisexual mother named Hannah (Colman) who takes her non-binary child to visit her gay father in Amsterdam."
Internet posts suggested Olivia Colman is a gay man based on a mischaracterized comment. An X post claimed she suggested she was effectively a gay man because of short hair and attraction to men, calling that patronising and insulting. The post referenced a comment Colman made in an interview about a film featuring a bisexual mother, Hannah, who takes her non-binary child to visit her gay father in Amsterdam. Colman said that playing Hannah "wasn't too much" of a stretch because, although not queer, she understood the character's viewpoint. She stated she had never felt massively feminine and feels at ease within the LGBTQ+ community. Colman does not identify as a gay man and has consistently spoken out against anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric while condemning violence and hostility against trans women.
