The Gayest Zodiac Signs Ranked (By Actual Gay People)


We polled hundreds of gay people across social media, friend groups, and gay bars to answer the question: Which zodiac signs are the gayest? The results are in, and they're exactly as chaotic as you'd expect.


Why This Ranking Matters


Before we dive in, let's be clear: everyone can be gay regardless of their zodiac sign. But there's something undeniably fun about seeing which signs align with the gayest energy. This isn't about astrology being real—it's about vibes, stereotypes, and having a good laugh.


The Methodology
