Was Burl Ives gay?

Writer Andrew Hansen

He was in a lot of Broadway/Theater musical productions.

Burl was also in a Tennessee Williams play.

Not that there's anything wrong with it. He just sets off my gaydar a bit.

I've known quite a few BEARS like Burl Ives, who liked dick.

He wasn't bad looking when he was younger.

I can see him taking it up the poop chute.

He ran a brothel for gay men in his hometown of Anacortes Washington, not sure if he was gay himself.

Mom played Burl Ives when I was very young in the early 80's. (I'm sure very few people my age have heard his music). I always pictured him looking like the Quaker Oats quaker.

Mr. Burl Ives was no goddamn Bear, sir. He was a Daddy, and a Big Daddy at that!

I always thought he was attractive. Had several of his records growing up. Maybe that little gayling, me, was onto something?

Burl Ives liked to get fisted!

Heard a story when I was a boy that he came to visit some of my grandparents church friends in my hometown of Mount Airy, NC. Being a religious couple they would not let him sleep in the same room with the woman he brought with him because they were not married.

Poor lost R15.

You're clearly in the wrong thread.

A lot of those old lefty folk singer types - like Will Geer (Grandpa Walton) - seem to have been gay.

Why did he decide to go with the toupee?

Everyone already knew he was balding.

I honestly sang a "Holly Jolly Xmas" with him at the tree lighting ceremony at the White House back in 1979. I was in the accompanying boys choir. It was a big deal for us, but I don't recall a single thing about him.

But have a cup of cheer

There will never be another "Big Daddy' like Burl Ives. He owns the character.

His preferred lyric was "Rudolph, the pink-holed choirboy."
