Openly gay characters in ff14

I always assumed the Carpenter's Guildmaster was gay. He is very sensitive to the needs of that one Gridanian soldier(and the feeling seems reciprocated), and I kinda thought they were lovers, though I don't think it is actively pointed out in-game.

I think Beatin and Gairhard were childhood sweethearts that are still carrying around a lot of complicated feelings for each other, Beatin also mentions the relationship in the Siblings and Sidewhiskers mail moogle quest and certainly frames it like it was a very messy break-up. Mind, he's implied to be romantically attracted to the dance mistress in the Harvest Dance quest so he's probably bisexual rather than gay and also his emotional life is an ongoing disaster.

. . . I am really disappointed we didn't return to it with the HW Carpentry questlines.

Also among the U in forgotten springs is a gate guard who comments about the way U'lamana makes her tail curl in a way that very few others do, she is either a lesbian or bi, as U'lamana is female.

Loonh Gah is tsundere to both genders..lol..
