Peter Sherlock conclusion
'Gay.. Ehm, hey,' clip and 'He's not!' from Sherlock show sexuality between characters in very different ways. In the clip the character of Moriarty is acting in an extremely feminine way stereotypically in a 'gay' fashion. His flirting towards Sherlock and has low tone to his voice when he say 'hi' to Sherlock in a shy little school girl way backs up the gay stereotype, other aspects of the meis-en-scene such as his low cut tight t-shirt, also his underwear and how he has used eye-brow tint as Sherlock mentions back this up. All of these things leads Sherlock to the assumption that Moriarty is 'gay'. All of these assumptions made about Moriarty from this clip completely juxtapose with Sherlock. As the clothe's Sherlock wears are very masculine as they are dark colours and very formal also he is working in a lab which I a very masculine location as science is linked in with intelligence, which is a highly masculine trait also he seems completely uninterested by Moriarty towards him. Personally I think Sherlock is defiantly straight, but there is a possibility that Moriarty could be gay, or because the time we live in the could also be classed as a post masculine male, as you do not see him perform in any sexual act's that could confirm he is gay.
