Pokimane discusses her sexuality with fans on Twitch

Olivia Richman Published 13/09/2021

Fans are once again wondering about Imane “Pokimane” Anys’ romantic relationships. Pokimane’s sexuality, relationship status, and even if she would date a fan are all questions that have constantly come up during Pokimane’s streams. Now, Pokimane has decided to address a fan wondering about her sexual orientation.

During a recent Valorant stream, a viewer asked Pokimane what her sexuality was, stating that she didn’t have to answer if she wasn’t comfortable. After a bit of thought, Pokimane decided to open up to her fans. She admitted that she had a “weird” answer that she hoped wouldn’t be “offensive.”

“My whole life I felt straight, but I also I feel like sexuality is on a spectrum. Who knows how people feel at one point in their lives or another?” Pokimane said.

Pokimane said she “doesn’t care to talk about” her sexual orientation because it shouldn’t matter if she’s straight, bisexual, or homosexual. The streamer said that she won’t correct people who call her bi or a lesbian because it shouldn’t affect what they think of her as a person.

Does Pokimane have a boyfriend?

At the moment, Pokimane doesn’t have a boyfriend as far as the public is aware. Some fans of the famous streamer have wondered if Pokimane is lying about being single in order to not anger fans who have a crush on her. But there is currently nothing that shows Pokimane to have a significant other.

Pokimane has also recently admitted that she would date a fan. While she wouldn’t be interested in dating anyone who sends her creepy messages online, Pokimane said she would date a non-streamer if they approached her more appropriately, even if they were a fan of hers.
