John Wayne Gacy, in an interview with retired FBI Profiler, Robert Ressler Ressler: The media have called you a homosexual killer. What is your position on homosexuality? Gacy: I have nothing against it. I am an outpsoken liberal. I don’t care for the labeling. I don’t care for any labeling, for that fact. Ressler: Do you claim to be a homosexual? Gacy: No, I would definitely not be homosexual. I have nothing aginst what they do, and I don’t deny that I engage in sex with males, but that’s - I am bisexual. Ressler: You’re bisexual? Gacy: Right. My preference is women, and I have been married enough times and have children, and I see nothing wrong with it. They blew this out of proportion, because, again, it enforced their sexual angle of the case. I am not homosexual, not in any sense of the word, I says, ‘cause I was married twice; and just because I didn’t get along in my marriages - My marriages went down the drain only because I was a workaholic, working seven day a week and that - Gacy always expressed anger that he was accused of having sex with his victims. His second wife had reported that they rarely had sex, and their children were adopted. Gacy’s father reportedly often said to him, as a child, “you’re queer”, or “you’re going to turn out to be a queer”. Robert Ressler writes: “Gacy had a great need in general for denial, and specifically to deny the notion that he was a homosexual. In our previous conversations, however, Gacy had indicated that homosexual acts were a matter of convenience to him: he was the sort of guy who’d put in eighty-hour workweeks, and because of this heavy schedule he didn’t have time for dating women…It was much easier for him to pick up a young guy to give him oral sex and it wouldn’t cost much; that would hold him for a few weeks and enable him to go back to work. But why didn’t he go to a female prostitute, which would have been accessible? Gacy goes to great lengths to deny his homosexuality, as though there were some aspects of homosexuality that he finds reprehensible”. -- source link
