His Tonto was gay, too.

His character was supposed to be drunk, that's all. Anything else is you reading into it.
If it matters, heterosexual encounters of his are alluded to in the fourth one, where Bloom/Knightley's characters do not appear. I doubt it is a case of retconning with "the not-gays", it's just that Jack Sparrow's lovelife wasn't exactly relevant to the earlier plots. But if you want him to be bi, I see no reason to contradict you.

It is like watching Paul Lynde play, as he sometimes did, a married man with children. He is supposed to be straight, but he doesn't act like he is. And Jack Sparrow acts like he would rather be with the boys. Why does Depp do it? Because it is fun to camp it up. He would probably sissify James Bond.

No not threatened just think that pirates esp a feared captain would have to be tough not a prancing fool or they would have been killed by their own men. And I guess I could be accused of fearing strong women because I felt that girl was a super bitch.

Was He supposed to be gay like in Willy Wonder?
just cause he lived alone with all those male (or did the females just look male?) midgets doesnt make him gay.
"Depp's weird super feminine pirate captain WAS he ment to be gay or bisexul?"
Just cause pirates had a huge tradition of sodomy on the high seas (hence the term butt pirate etc) doesnt mean they where gay if doing it or even receiving!
