In over 936 episodes, multiple mangas, movies, and specials, not once has James ever shown any interest in a man (I have googled relentlessly on this). Not once. He never says it or shows any interest in another man. Poor James has been stereotyped. Why? Because he occasionally likes to wear a dress, has lavender hair, babies his Pokémon, and ran away from marriage like six times throughout the series. Also, in the English dub, he used to have a cute camp British accent, which according to some is the official ‘accent of the gay’. James does act feminine (he likes fashion, keeping clean, cooking, dancing, decorating, doing hair and makeup), so naturally he is softer than most guys. In addition to that, in the Japanese version of the anime, in the motto, he is called the ‘soft-heart’ of the trio, and so yes, he is ‘less evil’ than Jessie and Meowth, this is brought up a lot in the TRio’s arguments.NONE OF THESE THINGS ACTUALLY EQUATE TO HOMOSEXUALITY.And last but not least, in HIS OWN WORDS at the 11:55 mark."SHE was my first love."KTHXBYE.
