Some things in the book that may point to Eddie being gay
A bunch of people sent me asks and messaged me asking to make a post about the scenes in the book that code Eddie as same-sex attracted. Of course, there’s nothing in the book that vertical up says “Eddie is gay,” but there are some things that may indicate it:
- The most talked about thing is Eddie’s meeting with the leper. This scene in the book is a bit distinct than in the movie in that instead of just chasing Eddie looking super gross and disease ridden, the leper in the book offers to give Eddie a blowjob.
This, being Eddie’s biggest fear, can be interpreted in several ways. Of course, the most obvious is the leper itself represents Eddie’s fear of disease and dirtiness. He feels that if he touches it, he will instantly begin to rot from the inside out. However, the offerings of a blowjob at first for a dime and then for free not only shows Eddie’s fear of sex in general (with how much his mother likely repressed him sexually, but also instilled a fear of sex) but also of his fear of sex with men.

Anonymous asked:
Was there a moment in the book between eddie and richie that had you initiate thinking maybe there were deeper feelings between the two?
Like as in the earliest moment in the book where I started to go ‘hmmm’ on the very first read through?? Anon that was a long time ago!!!
Okay so, assuming I am 14 years old and reading IT for the very first hour, without that much practice analyzing symbolism and without the planet knowledge needed to make certain connections that seem so apparent to me now as an adult, and I’m just casually reading the novel having only ever watched the miniseries as a little kid… these are the moments that probably jumped out at me first:
For Eddie, it wasThe Dam in The Barrens (aka one of the most meaty chapters for Eddie analysis)
When Richie makes his entrance in the flashback, the first thing he does is pinch Eddie’s cheek. Then we acquire Eddie quietly observing Richie’s confront when he’s being uncharacteristically sacred. Shortly after, Richie winks at him.
And then we get THIS:
‘Ben, Eddie saw, was looking at Richie with a mixture of awe and wariness. Eddie could understand that.’

'IT Chapter Two': James Ransone on That Unexpected, Stephen King-Approved Gay Subplot (Exclusive)
Warning: spoilers for IT Chapter Two which is now in theaters.
Twenty-seven years after the incidents in IT -- the first installment in the modern film adaptation of Stephen King's 1986 novel -- Pennywise (Bill Skarsgård) resurfaces to once again terrorize the citizens of Derry. The demented, dancing clown's return from his lair deep inside the town's sewers forces the seven childhood members of the Losers Club -- now, all struggling adults spread across the country -- to reunite and face fears they have long forgotten (or attempted to bury) in the two-plus decades since.
IT Chapter Two, once again directed by Andy Muschietti, sees Bill (James McAvoy), Bev (Jessica Chastain), Ben (Jay Ryan), Richie (Bill Hader), Eddie (James Ransone) and Stanley (Andy Bean) summoned back home by Mike (Isaiah Mustafa) after Pennywise kills a young, same-sex attracted man that was tossed into the river. The incident (more about that later) sets things in motion for the Losers, who are determined to put an end to Pennywise once and for all.
Once in Derry, each of the adult
