He plays a homosexual in Mrs. Doubtfire and in Independence Day, so, is he gay in real too?

Kylethurna, you are a liar.
Wikipedia:
Fierstein occasionally contributes authors columns about gay issues. He was openly gay at a time when very few celebrities were, and never needed to come out, as it was simply known that he was gay. His careers as a stand-up comic and female impersonator are mostly behind him. Fierstein resides in Ridgefield, Connecticut.

His character in Independence Day is gay?? I mean of course putting Harvey Fierstein in the role automatically puts the sexuality of the character into question but I don't think its ever actually confirmed whether or not the character is gay.

^In a deleted scene, he embraces Jeff Goblum and Kisses him.
"Sanka, you dead?"
"Yeah man"

Your kidding, right? Try watching ID4 again. Listen to his character speak when hearing of the alien plot to destroy the earth."Oh my god, I've gotta call my hairdresser, my lawyer, forget my lawyer! If that isn't gay, I don't know what is.

I've always assumed that the character was gay as well, Harvey certainly seems to play him gay. But your right, it is never said not that I remember.

Harvey Fierstein is quite openly gay. There are rumors about many actors and I do not arbitrarily believe them, but in this case there is no doubt. If you think his character in Mrs. Doubtfire is stereotypically gay, watch "Torch Song Trilogy".

Yes, Harvey is gay. This might surprise you, but so was Liberace. And Paul Lynd liked to "putt from the rough" also. Did you also not quite catch the fact that Telly Savalis was bald?

The guy is a well-known out-of-the-closet activist/artist/entertainer. If any of you 12-year-olds asking the question had seen him in anything other than Mrs. Doubtfire, you'd know that. He is definitely gay and definitely talented. He narrated the Harvey Milk documentary, which is one of the best films of its type I've ever seen.

This couldn't have been a serious question. When I was 8 years old I was thinking "oh so thats a gay man" you have to be blind not to see that he's gay. I love him, he is awesome and Torch Song Trilogy kicks ass.
