Matt Isn’t That Smooth When It Comes To Girls

As a feminist, Matt seems to have a limited choice of ladies by his side. But the ones that stick close to him are probably more than just lucky. One of those lucky ladies is Gossip Girl star, Michelle Trachtenberg.

Whether it is attending the red carpet event or decorating cookies for St. Jude’s Research Hospital, Matt and Michelle are always together and are having the most fun. Now that’s quite a development for someone who confessed once that he wasn’t great with girls.

But that’s probably all in their relationship. They seem to be ‘just friends,’ and Matt doesn’t seem to have dropped a single sugar on his possible girlfriend or his future wife.

Many of his fangirls weren't happy at first, but they were given a sweet treat when Matt had a shirtless photoshoot; those abs were on fire.

Okay coming back to the topic, in an interview about his views on dating with Cosmopolitan, Matt admitted that he could be awkward during a conversation and that dating was like auditioning for him.

He shared some pretty wise words on the topic indicating that if one met the right person, the puzzle would fit without a problem.

But wait, why is Matt romantic when it comes to the topic of dating and still hasn’t bagged an official girlfriend? Is it because he might be gay?

Is Matt McGorry Gay As They Say?

First thing’s first, Matt is a huge activist, feminist and a great fighter against racism. The second thing is that Matt fully supports gay rights and the concept of same-sex marriage.

He even put a series of tweets supporting gays and the concept of masculinity taken heavily in the society.

Another thing that has people wondering if he is gay, it's his way of showing his feminism.

He once posted a shirtless picture of himself photoshopping his acceptable male nipples with two famously taken down female nipples of Miley Cyrus and Chrissy Teigen to point out the double standard of Instagram’s censorship policy.

The fact that Matt is a feminist from every angle and corner of himself has showered him if questions on him being gay. Well, Matt hasn’t talked once, about his sexuality but there’s no doubt that if he does come out as gay, he will have many people supporting him from the back.

But let’s also not forget that he could be straight and that he might drop the bomb of introducing his girlfriend or even a wife. That would be a real bummer for all the gay guys out there.
