#jack also defaults to queer tho i think.

Davey seems like the kind of person who at one point was very concerned with "knowing himself" and wanted to be able to put a label on things and wore himself out trying to pin himself into a box because he wanted to understand his identity and how it all fit together so he could sum himself up in a few words but after a long time of trying and failing to fit into self-imposed boxes he finally gave up and was like fuck you I'm queer and that's good enough for me.

Jack on the other hand did not think twice about what his sexuality was until he was in a relationship with a guy and now it's a 50/50 shot if he remembers the word bisexual or ambidextrous first (he's both so he's never technically wrong just answering the wrong question)

#jack also defaults to queer tho i think. #my jack sexuality headspace headcanon has always been and will always be that there is too much other shit going on in his life #to waste mental space on worrying about something like who he's attracted to. what happens happens. whatever. #jack kelly #newsies #davey jacobs

Jack not knowing Matt is bi makes sense to me idk why lol. I am curious as to why you think that is tho

TWO BIG REASONS

There is no reason in hell that Jack Garrett needs to know Matthew Simmons is bisexual because when he looks at Matt he sees a married man (married to a woman) with a family

Also Jack is canon catholic and Gary Sinise is a republican which I feel like makes Jack also republican by default

So he has no idea that any of his chaotic IRT kids are queer

He assumes they're all straight

But they're are all queer

NOT THAT JACK WOULDN'T STILL LOVE AND ADORE HIS CHAOTIC CHILDREN

But the four of them agree it's just better if Jack never knows

And he never asks because he doesn't need to know
