Morrissey says he's 'humasexual', not homosexual


Wonder if he would say "non-binary" today?

Following the revelation of his first serious relationship with a man in his new book Autobiography, Morrissey has issued a clarification about his sexuality. "Unfortunately, I am not homosexual," he wrote from Sweden in a note posted on fansite True to You. "In technical fact, I am humasexual. I am attracted to humans. But, of course, not many."

In Autobiography, Morrissey described his first serious relationship, with Jake Owen Walters, as the moment "the eternal 'I' became 'we'". He also wrote about his lack of interest in girls as a teenage boy, and about a number of close male friendships. However, the 54-year-old singer also said he had considered having a child with a woman, Tina Dehghani, who became a "lifetime constant".

"Tina and I discuss the unthinkable act of producing a mewling miniature monster. Had I ever previously known such a thought?" he wrote.
