Is flea gay

Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea says fans who buy his new memoir won’t read about the gay experiences he had when he was younger.

The 57-year-old musician admits he wrote at length about his same-sex encounters in an early draft of Acid for the Children but decided to accept it all out.

“I didn’t want it to be sensationalized,” Flea told The Guardian. “To me, it wasn’t a big deal. I was experimenting and it turns out, ‘hey, I’m not gay’. So, it’s not really my story.”

Flea, who married planner Melody Ehsani last month, does write about male identity in a chapter titled “Men Don’t Brush Men.” He recalls feeling hurt as a six-year-old boy when his father admonished him for wanting a kiss.

Fast forward to the early days of Red Hot Chili Peppers, who posed for a Los Angeles gay porn magazine.

“I felt honoured that they wanted us in the magazine,” said Flea. “The gay community in Los Angeles were the first ones to really embrace the Chili Peppers.”

As for the band's fondness for stripping down on stage and for photos? “I grew up running around naked,” said Flea. “There’s a freedom innate in it, a rebelliousness, that I find beautiful.”

 

THE MAN AND THE FLEA

by: John Gay (1685-1732)

      HETHER on earth, in air, or main,
      Sure ev'ry thing alive is vain!
      Does not the hawk all fowls survey,
      As destin'd only for his prey?
      And do not tyrants, prouder things,
      Think men were born for slaves to kings?
      When the crab views the pearly strands,
      Or Tagus radiant with golden sands,
      Or crawls beside the coral grove,
      And hears the ocean roll above,
      "Nature is too profuse," says he,
      "Who gave all these to pleasure me!"
      When bord'ring pinks and roses bloom,
      And ev'ry garden breathes perfume,
      When peaches glow with sunny dyes
      Like Laura's cheek when blushes rise,
      When with huge figs the branches bend,
      When clusters from the vine count on,
      The snail looks r

      Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers - "I've Had Gay Sex, But I'm Not Gay"

      In conversation, Flea revealed that he had gay experiences of his own growing up, episodes he wrote about at length in an preliminary version of the publication. But, he wound up taking all that out. “I didn’t want it to be sensationalized,” he explained. “To me, it wasn’t a big deal. I was experimenting and it turns out, ‘hey, I’m not gay’. So, it’s not really my story.”

      He seemed into it when I fucked him in the East Village in the preliminary 90s. I'm not a fan of the band and didn't keep up with his career and was shocked when this book came out and it turns out he's not an out same-sex attracted. I was sure he was out. And a lot of gays in the East Village idea that, too.
