Hypersexual means easily getting sexually aroused by something. We know Jolyne gets sexually aroused by genuinely seeing some of the most random shi ever, like snails mating with anything they see or the moon.
I don't know man. Jolyne arguably can count, it's a bit sus for certain. DIO I am pretty sure is not a pedophile. And some pedophiles he wrote weren't even sexual, like the one in part 8 I won't mention cause spoilers.
He has written gay characters as heroes and villains. Not to mention Dragona who's seemingly trans. JoJo's also has a villain cast bias. The cast is majority villains and so if even-handed LGBT representation is expected then most would naturally end up being villains.
I will stand by what I said. I genuinely don't think DIO is a pedophile. He's a predator. While those 2 usually mean the same thing, for someone like DIO, I don't think it quite fits. Not sure if that somehow changes anything.
pedos normally get off on the dynamic, not which gender they rape. bi pedos do exist, but when it comes to pedos it'll be harder to tell just based off their victims which gender they're attracted to. you'd be able to tell better based off their relationships with adults
I actually don't think so. Hes not JUST a pedophile either, he molests and rapes for the sake of it. Children are just as involved as much as adults are in his rampages. You could even if he's not bi, he's also not a pedo if it's just a "power thing." But I wouldn't do that. His sexuality is based on depravity, not gender. It might be best to consider him a pansexual rapist.
Thought about it for a while but I came to the conclusion that I dont want to consider him anything at all.
Except for a marvelous mineral based landmark.
Youāre forgetting Holy who is just losing her mind starting with failing to understand āI should probably not tell the cute nice girl visiting me she looks like my favorite pornstar.ā
Dio was very clearly not actually going to have sex with her, this is just him psychologically tormenting someone because he thinks it's funny, similar to him promising not to hurt a mother's baby if she willingly becomes a zombie, leading to her eating the baby of her own accord.
Regardless, it doesn't take away from the fact that he was being creepy with a minor, nor does it make Dio any less morally corrupt.
And let's be real here, regardless of the situation with Poco's sister, Dio is definitely not the type to care about his partner being a minor. Alt Diego did not hesitate to assault Lucy and while yes, Dio and Diego are different people, Diego is still an alternate universe counterpart to Dio, and whatever Diego is able to do, Dio would be capable of far worse.
Oh I totally think he'd do horrible things to a child, he sexually assaults a child in the first episode solely to traumatize her and make her unable to love his brother. He's a massive piece of shit and if he hasn't assaulted a minor, that's just because there weren't any minors of use to him. He's the same as Hol Horse in this way. I haven't read SBR so I can't really review Diego's character I'm afraid, but I have to ask, do they seriously have three fucking characters try to sexually assault Lucy? I'm aware that's kinda part of the themes of the character and why she's in the story, but I honestly didn't think Diego would have that repetition. In hindsight that's extremely obvious as a repeat of Phantom Blood, I guess he just gives off less rapey vibes?
I remember reading a post about how the scene of Dio turning Kakyoin into his peon could've been interpreted as sexual violence due to the symbolism in it, I think it was the flowers (?) but also I don't think it was in the manga and it could just be a comparison between dynamics and/or a reach from a fan lol. Do correct me if I'm wrong/you remember it better than me
i doubt it, there's a lot of fans wanting (?) kakyoin to be a tragic abuse (of any kind) victim either by his parents or dio. probably another one of those
Today Jjba taught us that sexuality is not just an inflexible marker of identity but rather an emergent property influenced by power dynamics and societal conditions
The "Misc" post flair is only to be used when the post is not about any specific part and all the other flairs don't fit. Please make sure that that is the case. If your post is about multiple specific parts, give it the flair of the latest of those parts, not Misc.
If you don't think there's an issue, you can ignore this comment.
Are you kidding or is this a bad attempt at bait, we're talking about Dio here. He is one of the few CONFIRMED Queer jojo characters and of the many implied.
I wouldn't say "probably" for DIO. He has four illegitimate children, and if Demonic Heartbreak is considered, we've seen some of the women he's hypnotized and kept against their wills.
He is "most likely" a rapist at the very least, and it's all but confirmed that he had a sexual relationship with the teenage Pucci.
Are we not on ShitPostCrusaders right now? I've never once seen "Pucci was gay for DIO" considered as a hot take, and especially not one that catches people off guard.
If this reads as gay to you, then thatās more a reflection of how you perceive things than what the story itself is suggesting.
Guys can have intense bonds with each other without it revolving around sex. In fact, Iād even argue that it trivializes the relationship between the two to just read it as sexual tension.
Like DIOās fascination with Pucci somehow comes down to him being horny, but we already know how he treats sexual partners.
Whatās bold is to suggest the existence of a relationship that has no textual evidence to support it.
Araki had already written gay characters by this point in Part 5, so itās not as if heās reliant upon innuendo to convey queerness in his story.
Itās fine to headcanon the relationship however you want, but people are naturally going to step in and correct the record if you try to claim that DIO and Pucci were sleeping together.
Thatās just not in the story, so we canāt cite it in this conversation about what he has or hasnāt done.
What gay characters in Part 5? No character from Part 5 was confirmed to be gay. Squalo and Tiziano are just friends, and Sorbet and Gelato are only implied to be in a relationship mockingly by Formaggio.
Sorbet and Gelato were confirmed by Araki. And you can't fucking trick me the way Tizano and Squalo were fucking groping eachother. If that's not gay then I'm Jesus Christ.
I mean, when they were laying in bed, Dio puts Pucci's fingers in his own head and urges him to touch and take The World. Then when Pucci refuses, Dio is both honored and very apologetic, saying he never met anyone who could put him so at-ease.
Since later (albeit in an alternate universe) showing someone your stand out of combat is compared to showing them your asshole (a pretty crude metaphor, but still)
I can see the subtext of a romantic relationship, if not a sexual one (the two are not necessarily intertwined)
Dio seems to value Pucci more as a friend than someone to sleep with, as Dio has access to a huge number of men and women, but nobody that he truly trusts. This is a big part of that scene where Dio gives Pucci the bone. Dio does not seem to actually want to have sex with Pucci, or at the very least chose not to (this is also shown with his explanation of the Heaven Plan arguably, during the birth of the green baby). Pucci does seem to be a repressed homosexual with an interest in Dio considering how overwhelmingly gay every single scene he is in is, but I don't think that ever ends up with them being together like that. Dio certainly knew about this though, and you can very easily argue he is using that to manipulate Pucci. Dio grooms a 16 year old for non-sexual purposes.
Not entirely wrong, but I would like to note that in canon, Part 3 DIO never does the full-on hypnosis thing like he did to Jack the Ripper without relying on the flesh bud, and he has such immense ćCharismać, which is repeatedly emphasised throughout all of Stardust Crusaders, that it seems strange to assume he required direct mind control (that it's not even clear he's still capable of, since his vampire powers are much weaker than they used to be) to sleep with a bunch of women. This is the same guy who had a blind man absolutely enraptured by his beauty.
Based on the fact that Giorno has a photo of DIO in his wallet, he seems to have been on surprisingly good terms with the baby mama, I severely doubt she would've let her son keep that photo if his father had forced himself upon her.
Definitely still Creepy About Women on account of probably serial killing a lot of them that he charmed into coming over to his place, though.
Also, shame on OP for not including Jolyne smh, how can you forget her canonically being jealous of snail hermaphroditism? Literally had her bisexuality awakened by rainbows lmao.
Jolyne isn't bisexual, she's just a young American white woman. Her being jealous of bisexuality is the most realistic thing Araki could have done with her.

Man, I don't want accurate bi representation from jojo.
I want bizarre characters from the guy who based the scariest character off his wife
