I don't usually talk about Adam's (The Creature’s) sexuality or things like that.
(Because I'm not really into it, personally. I mean, don't get me wrong, I don't mind hearing people's headcannons, and when they talk about his relationship preferences/sexuality. I just think of him as a baby boy or a being with a childlike mentality [until he gains knowledge, I know. Please, just hear me out], so I don't usually delve into topics such as his sexuality or sexual preferences. I hope I made that clear enough. Carry on being you, fandom🖤)
Anywho...
However, with that being said, do you think the Creature could be pan, bisexual or even non-binary? I mean, in the novel, he is a construction of human AND animal parts. Whether by the distrust or humans or the knowledge of his birth, he never calls himself a man, so to speak. He does wish for a bride, yes, but he might do that after seeing Felix and Safie take each other as future wife and husband. I also saw someone say it could also mean something he feels he is just "supposed" to do in terms of existing??
For GDT, the 2025 adaptation, he is made from different men (soldiers, prisoners, regular men), so I can see how that defeats my point. However, he never feels like he has a certain identity, and he's he's constantly being plagued by the memories of multiple men (great trope, in my opinion. The idea that he carries so many people with him and experiences the memories of who they once were is an amazing detail)
In the 2025 adaptation, he asks for a companion (because The Old Blind Man said: I'd be greatly helped by your COMPANIONSHIP- stupid Victor😠😞) He asks for A companion, he doesn't care what gender, he just wants ONE like HIM. A friend. Someone, even/likely platonically, to spend the rest of eternity with.
He has long hair (love, btw)(and I only bring that up as a way to say that in that time period, long hair for men wasn't as ordinary. At least not as long as Adam wishes to keep it🖤)
In the 2025 adaptation (and I'm sure novel), he drapes himself in blouses and whatever pants he can find and calls the people of the house and those he sees around him as beautiful. He seems very baby girl coded and has the eyes of an innocent deer.
Even so, I feel he, in modern adaptations possibly, could at least be gender fluid ?? I feel he would just wear what he wants when he wants and would find every little thing about himself and his personality as beautiful, not caring if it's reserved for men or women. He would just simply exists and I think, no matter what, that's the most beautiful thing💕
*Edit to add: I just saw a post where someone mentioned how Oscar Issac said he loved how feminine Jacob Elordi was in playing the Creature, and how there was a lot of femininity within the Creature himself, so I don't feel like I'm spinning myself in circles here, but to each their own <3*
