How safe is it to assume someone who dresses and acts as effeminately

Another pic from this year, keep in mind he's almost 40

If it's a well known musician then they're probably straight or bi.

If it's just some random person you meet IRL then there's a 99.9% chance they're gay or trans.

You'd have better look asking this somewhere where people actually know about VK culture, like the Visual Kei thread on >>>/cgl/ or perhaps even on >>>/mu/.

Crossdressing onstage doesn't indicate much of anything in that business IMO - there's almost always at least one crossdressing guy in the band so the rest of the band having dropped the image doesn't prove anything. I don't know enough about Shinya's personal life to know how he dresses in his downtime (although at least he's not as private as Mana).

jrock aesthetic isn't a sexuality anon

>people like this are hiding something

you should know that many crossdressers are heterosexual

The strongest behavioral correlation between homosexuality and something else I know of is between homosexuality and non gender conforming behavior.

It's definitely something to be aware of, but beware you aren't confusing a metrosexual for a tranny or homo. It's definitely an indication they lean in that direction, and there's a reason you see fags dressing effeminately literally throughout history across cultures.

We're near peak levels of homosexuality in society, we're approaching Greek levels of faggotry, so this distinction can get confusing. Just two decades ago, you could look at a man, see he was wearing skinny jeans, and immediately know he was a faggot. These days, that's not as reliable as an indicator. Just remember, reliable gaydar is based on detecting multiple signals from the same person which all line up with the same result.

As I understand it, Japanese culture places masculinity more on traits that those in the west would describe as effeminate and designates western masculine traits as more homosexual.

Compare, for instance, Shinya to Hard Gay/Hādo Gay.

Also, they have a dick worshiping festival ffs. You can't just look at other cultures under a western lens and expect the two to line up perfectly, come on now.
