Apparently according to his boyfriend, Rock had big crush thing on Marilyn Monroe and when he met her at the 1962 Globe Awards, he had to hand her the award for the most popular actress of the year, he was so happy, he was beaming and really nervous.
When he died he said, at least I'll get to see Marilyn again.

He had no "crush" on her. They were friends, tho not close (MM was not really into the Hollywood social scene) He was very attentive to her the night of the 1962 GG's because she was quite drunk, and he was literally holding her up. I think they both would liked to had made a film together. In fact, MM very much wanted "Pillow Talk." And she considered him for "Bus Stop" but because that film was her "comeback" after a year away from Hollywood, she thought heapproaching the peak of his careermight overshadow her.
He certainly liked her well enough to narrate the 1963 tribute film, "Marilyn."
Rock's real MM crush was Marilyn Maxwell, who truly adored him, understood his issues, etc. Everybody expected them to marry and have a very successful marriage of convenience. It didn't happen and Maxwell was devastated.

All men loved Marilyn. It didn't matter if they were gay or bi.

He may have been 'bi' (or pretended to be-remember Elton John's marriage??) when he was younger but after 30-years-old I doubt there were any more woman.
He seems to have followed a path many gay men do when they are coming to terms w/their sexuality. Attractive willing woman are VERY available (probably more available than confused young gay men in those days) and the guy probably was just horny-the same way a straight man will let a gay man 'pleasure' him in certain circumstances-it's pretty common. If Rock was really 'bi', there would have been a string of women later in his life but they're apparently are'nt any or any claims by any. For younger gay men, bisexuality is commonly just a stop on the road to being gay.

Hudson was gay, but he also liked women, and had affairs with them, so that WOULD make him technically bi. He had a wild tryst with Mamie Van Doren on her kitchen floor, lol. It's in her book. Fun read.

No need to be rude.
I understand what you mean. I've been attracted to women before but not in a way where I wanted to have a relationship or be physical with them.

Rock like many gay men were/are in awe of Marilyn Monroe. It is NOT a sexual thing. Just like straight men being in awe of another man.
