Batman's gay?

Since when has wearing tight shorts, spandex and taking in underage kids to become your partner considered gay? In all honesty I always could tell the queer undertones of the Batman franchise but I always assumed it was just me being immature. I guess the mere basis of superheroes could be construed as gay. A guy with a secret identity, always have a “partner”, usually wearing tights, always buff, most of the time have trouble with women or just no heterosexual romantic relationships. How are they not gay? With Batman Forever especially, I must say I did not realize all the gay things in that movie. Such as Jim Carry’s spandex or tiara, or the towel scene or the thousands of other scenes that have a lot of gay iconography. Personally I don’t care if Batman’s gay let him be gay. I just find it ironic that in the cartoon series when Batman and Superman had a cross-over, Lois Lane (Superman’s girlfriend) was in love with Bruce Wayne (gay batman). Ironic don’t you think? But I guess you put a piece of visual out there ten different people are going to take it 10 different ways. I guess that goes with anything. I mean, I never thought there was any actual evidence of Batman being gay or any other superhero for that matter, course I have not done the research to prove or disprove that point. I’ve never been a big comic book fan. I know the basic stories of the major superheroes but beyond that I am at a loss.
