Tom Cruise Theory

Not gay.

AUTISTIC.

Discutez-vous.

Gay and certainly not autistic. So there.

Brendan Fraser might be autistic though.

I have always wondered too if Cruise is on the autism spectrum. The behaviors just fit.

Not sure whether or not he’s really gay, although he has always pinged to me.

by Anonymousreply 3April 29, 2023 6:53 PM

I don't think he really is gay.

by Anonymousreply 4April 29, 2023 6:57 PM

I should add: Gender and sexuality seem to be more varied among people on the autism spectrum,.

Make of that what you will, OP, but it’s interesting for sure.

I think Tammy is gay and somewhere on the asd/adhd/sld spectrum. I used to think that he was not gay because I read Andrew Morton's book and the blog of a former Co$ executive. Nonetheless, now I think he is gay again. There are too many gay rumors/people around him for a straight guy, and some of rumors came from the industry.

His first wife, Mimi Rogers, said he wasn't particularly interested in having fun in the bedroom. Therefore, he's either gay or asexual. I say gay.

by Anonymousreply 8May 8, 2023 3:59 AM

But what metrics are we applying to determine gayness?

There are only three real metrics which I think count:

#1. Effeminacy / Gay voice & mannerism (he doesn’t have them)

#2. History of hanging out with gay people (he doesn’t have it)

#3. At least one affectionate relationship with a male friend of equivalent attractiveness (never documented)

Try to think of closeted homosexuality and hidden Autism Spectrum Disorder as running on parallel tracks. There will be a lot of similarities but they are basically two different things.

There's something wrong with him, but I can't (and don't care to) put my finger on it.

R9, maybe he hires male escorts and has them sign non-disclosure agreements. He's a Scientologist so he has to keep the whole gay thing under wraps.

My theory is joint autistic spectrum and sociopathic spectrum.

Maybe he fucks guys but I can’t picture him having a deep bond with another person. Tom Cruise’s interviews inspired Christian Bale when he was playing Patrick Bateman

I'm a gay male and I don't think Cruise is gay. I do think Travolta is at least bisexual.

Rather, I think he is completely over the top, white padded room level batshit crazy. His picture should be in the dictionary next to batshit crazy.

Tom seems like he has deep sexual issues, probably bi with deep shame about sex, especially any homosexual attraction. He’s also extremely driven and into all kinds of self-help tropes, so probably practices sublimation.

Same as above.

Not autistic

Psychopath

He's decent at acting because he's been faking his personalty his whole life, learning to "imitate" human behaviors. He blew it with the Oprah couch jumping weirdness - because he didn't have a handle on how a love-dope person would behave.

It also explains his need to do such elaborate stunts for every movie. Psychopaths need actual danger to feel legit human emotions. Most turn to petty crime, risky sex, harming animals, etc but Cruise smartly got deep pocketed studios to pay for him to bungee jump off skyscrapers and hang off the side of airplanes and shit.

Is there a PhD program somewhere on this important topic?

I think he has mild Klinefelter syndrome. Low sperm count, low sex drive, behavioral issues, wide ass, mild autism.

Klinefelter syndrome people are tall with weak muscle development and poor motor coordination.

So, no.

by Anonymousreply 25May 8, 2023 11:56 AM

I definitely believe he’s sociopathic spectrum (not all sociopaths are bad people), but this is something autistic spectrum people do too: “…faking his personalty his whole life, learning to "imitate" human behaviors.”

In my mind autism spectrum and sociopathic spectrum are next to each other, think of it as divergent evolution, where two very different things evolved to come to the same conclusion, ie the moth that looks almost exactly like a hummingbird. They are similar but different. Furthermore, the evolutionary coping and survival mechanisms for autism, sociopathy and homosexuality are very similar (the child understands they are different, they fear for their safety, they mimic.)

Then let’s look at the Scientology aspect. People take one part of the Scientology promise (“we can erase your sexual divergence”) and make the connection that Cruise has Freudian psychosexual issues, which we associate with homosexuality although there are a lot of non-homosexual psychosexual issues. But, but… Scientology promises to cure a lot of things. “We understand you are different but we will teach you how to be normal and if you cannot be normal you will at least be one of us and you won’t be alone and alienated.” There haven’t been many studies because high-functioning autism is relatively recently understood but there are some articles about which suggest that cults would hold strong appeal for autistic peoples.

Cruise isn’t just a scientologist He’s a celebrity scientologist.

That means he’s one of the abusers, not one of the abused.

by Anonymousreply 27May 8, 2023 12:38 PM

Furthermore, and this is another curveball and nonsequitor, but why are the rates of transgender self identify and autism spectrum so high?! (Three to six times!)

Transgenderism is obviously not a literal cult, but the idea of transgenderism as a ‘fix” to your problems being promoted by medicine is very similar to what Scientology offers. Think of transgenderism and cults as a neurotypical solution to an autistic problem. “Why am I so different?” “Well you were obviously born in the wrong body and need to spend money to change that.” “Well you obviously have the ghosts of dead aliens living in your brain and need to spend money to change that.”

And r27 also brings up a very good point and that’s where we get to this.

But, but, the problem is that an autism spectrum person would not be good at Machiavellianism. Indeed here we get to the Oprah couch-jumping fiasco. He is unable to mimic those neurotypical behaviors.

I believe he is a non practicing homosexual. He's most likely been so indoctrinated against homosexuality by the cult that he has purged himself of any sex life at all, at least with another person, male or female. I also believe that his daughter with Katie Holmes is not his biological child and that is how he could just walk away from the child an apparently never look back.

by Anonymousreply 30May 8, 2023 12:54 PM

It's funny how since the whole Katie Holmes fiasco how quiet he's been about any relationships. Used to be he'd be doing the pap stroll with the starlet or whoever, bragging about jetting them to NY for dinner and basically very over the top type love bombing. All the scieno dirt released must have scared him and miscavige.

But why would you believe this? Again here is where the neurotypical solution to an autistic problem comes in.

Let me rephrase that for you.

“I believe that he is a non-practicing sexual.”

I think he's always acting. Always fake--even alone, even in private. All his relationships are fake. Sex is fake for him. He is truly hollow and pretending to be human. His being in a cult that makes people believe they are something other than human has only added to this mental illness.

by Anonymousreply 37May 8, 2023 1:08 PM

Well if the old story from Paul Barresi about Cruise and the late porn guy "Big Red" are to be believed, he definitely has a very warped sex life. It seems all Cruise needs is a short bout of 'catch as catch can' with another man wearing nothing but their bloomers to provide him with enough material, I assume, for some solo gratification for a good while.

Big Red also claimed he fucked Garth Brooks ("....when you are fucking a whale it seems like eternity.") as well as Antonio Banderas, Randy Travis, Garth Brooks and Andrea Boccelli.

[quote] On Garth Brooks: RED: I went into the room. Doctor Paul parked out front, sitting in his car. I saw him through the window. I sat down on the bed and not too much longer afterward, a few minutes maybe, then a knock on the door. Dressed in ordinary clothes, no cowboy hat, no boots - nothing. Mr. Garth brooks came through the door to visit me. He said he wanted to be fucked in the ass. I was smart enough to be prepared for anything goes and I recognized him immediately. So I went into the bathroom and, because he was so overweight and disgusting, I took a Viagra, got hard, and put on a condom. He just wanted to go for a ride for hours and hours and hours and hours.

[quote] On Tom Cruise: RED: They took me with them in a car and we drove, I think to the Highgate area, to a house. Nothing spectacular. We went into the back of the house where Tom Cruise was sitting on a small sofa. A mat had been spread out on the floor. Cruise, dressed in what looked like a body suit, looked so cute. Either a black or very dark navy blue body suit for wrestling. He had on a little cap thingy, but the chin strap wasn't attached. Grinning and gloating at me, he said, "Strip down to your underwear and play with me for a little while." That's really the only conversation we had. We played. We wrestled. He was nice to me. I mean, he let me win, then he asked me if it was okay if he could rip off my briefs and told me he would buy me a new pair. I remember looking very close into his eyes and (I could tell because I used to tint my eyebrows and lashes) - maybe not his brows, but for sure his lashes were tinted because they had been growing out and I could see kind of like a lighter color around the edges of his eyes and if you look closer, he is a very fair skinned man.

[quote] On Andrea Boccelli: RED: We went to a popular restaurant in West Hollywood, near the Strip. After we sat down and ordered, I said him "I'm curious, what is it that you did with Boccelli?" "I'll draw you a map." He asked the waitress for a pen, flipped his place mat over and then proceeded to sketch out the entire Mediterranean coast line, right down to the boot of Sicily. He plotted out the itinerary he supposedly shared with Boccelli, down the Italian coast onto the French Riviera, pointing out all the places where he claimed the two of them stopped along the way. I asked, "What did Andrea Boccelli like to do with you sexually?" He said, "Oh, he enjoyed the smells. You know, the natural scent of a man." I thought to myself, Oh yeah. I get it. Boccelli's blind so what senses are left?

I find him handsome, but 100% completely sexless.

I went to high school with a very cute guy, very charming, but beyond that, there was nothing there. He did well in class as long as it didn't take any creativity. He could regurgitate facts he memorized, but application was a whole other story. He was literally just a handsome, empty shell. Voted most likely to succeed, but still lives in my home town and works at the post office.

That's how I view Tom Cruise,.. just an empty shell people have tried to fill.

In 1980, 17-18 years old Tom Cruise met Franco Zeffirelli and made his film debut.

In 1981, he auditioned for the leading role in 'Grease 2' in the living room of Allan Carr's house. Carr liked him but director Patricia Birch and Paramount chose another actor.

In 1982, the Village People cowboy Randy Jones and Cruise met at Andy Warhol party. They had the same management company at the time (Maybe something related to Allan Carr?)

In the same year, he got the leading role in 'Risky Business'. Paul Brickman initially chose Brian Backer as Joel but after David Geffen told Brickman "I want you to cast someone in the role of Joel that I would want to fuck," Backer was replaced by Cruise.

There is no evidence that Tom Cruise is gay but would be surprised if nothing happened.

Huge success very early in life in someone with a learning disability. By circumstance he compensated using a batshit “religion” (they’re all kind of batshit) and withdrew further into a bubble. To his credit he has remained “stable” in his eccentric manner. I don’t think he’s gay but I do think relationships with women are very difficult for him due to his lifestyle and “religion”.

Others go down the road of self destruction when huge fame and wealth comes at aa very young age. He has not- but he’s quite eccentric.
