The Rocky Horror Picture Show Sexuality and Sexual Identity Quotes

How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Quote #4

FRANK: How forceful you are, Brad. Such a perfect specimen of manhood. So...dominant. You must be awfully proud of him, Janet.

Frank initially comes across as gay, because he's created Rocky for sexual purposes and he flirts with Brad with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer. But he'll defy those initial impressions later on when he seduces Janet at night. Frank is best described as bisexual or pansexual.

Quote #5

JANET: Well, I don't like men with too many muscles.

FRANK: I didn't make him for you! He carries the Charles Atlas seal of approval.

Janet says this because she doesn't want Brad to be offended. However, within minutes, she declares, "I'm a muscle fan." So it's difficult to tell if she changed her mind, or she realizes something about herself that she never knew.

Quote #6

FRANK: Yes, yes I know, but it isn't all bad, is it? I think you really found it quite pleasurable.

Frank is Janet's first time in the sack, but he seduces her by pretending to be Brad. She figures out fairly quickly, but then decides she still wants it anyway. Either Janet is desperate for some lovin' or Frank is really good at what he does.
