I came across an article that called Dean "overtly heterosexual" and literally laughed out loud. XD But anyway, making this helped cheer me up a little-I hope you all enjoy it too!

corrections:
-porky’s 2 is not a classic queer film, but rather a film sometimes said to have queer undertones. It’s interesting Dean references this because it’s about theater students fighting bigotry in order to put on a play where boys can play female roles. Like many parts of this video it isn’t direct evidence he’s bi, but rather something that’s very interesting to note/another layer to the character’s continual queer-coding.

+ huge thank you to @StoryDetective for helping me think of scenes to add!
Also: Please note that I got a lot of the more subtle references from the metas above, aka people who know a lot more about the context than I do, so I can't necessarily explain the relevance of everything as well as they can. Also, yes, a lot of this stuff is subjective, but when it comes to something that is never blatantly stated (such as Dean's sexuality) that's to be expected. Especially taking into account that this show started in 2005 when there's no way they'd be drawing a lot of attention to it (interestingly you can see things get more and more obvious as time goes on.) So yeah, I can't necessarily "justify" every point here, but that's not the intention. I'm simply presenting some (not all) evidence and painting a picture that I think became very obvious at some point in the show.
