Yes, Bryan Singer is indeed gay if that's what you're asking.

I base that off of the following facts:

Bryan Singer graduated in 1989 from USC cinema school. In a 1998 lawsuit, he was accused of hanging around the school to pick up male lovers.

On April 2, 1997, a group of teenage boys arrived on the set (a boys' locker room at Eliot Middle School in Altadena, CA) of Singer's film Apt Pupil, based on a Stephen King novel.

The extras were told they'd wear Speedo-style swim trunks or a towel in the shower scene. Once on set, they were told to wear flesh-colored g-strings. That made many of the boys uncomfortable.

According to lawsuits filed a few weeks later, the boys, promised their roles wouldn't involve nudity, were asked by Singer to strip. The youths stood around naked for more than four hours as the cameras rolled and an "obviously homosexual" set photographer snapped pictures of them in "indecent positions," their lawsuits allege. The crew subjected them to "ogling, leering, and suggestive glances." The lawsuits claims the boys were subjected to sexual harassment, invasion of privacy, false imprisonment, and other outrages by Singer and his crew.

Apt Pupil's screenwriter Brandon Boyce told New Times LA: "It's an absolute smear job. I think [Rub and Gordon are] trying to blackmail people based on their sexuality...[They're] saying, 'we know you're gay [and] you better do this or everybody's gonna know you're gay.' "
