I know many fans think Teller is queer. But looking at the selfies he has taken with fans (female) he seems to enjoy himself and don't stand out as gay to me. I'm gay myself, and I don't get why people think he's male lover. I think he is awesome, whatever or not he's gay. Just wanted to share my thoughts Cool blog btw
Okay, I’ll give.
I’m going to begin with this; his sexuality is purely his business and we as fans do not contain the right to bother him about his secret life. Speculation is one thing. Everything I am about to say is pure speculation on my part and is not based in fact, but a matter of opinion.
When it comes to anyone on the planet, sexuality is a complicated thing. If you have a room full of 50 people and all of them are dressed alike and don the identical posture, it is nearly impossible to tell who is what. There are certainly some people out there that show their sexuality on their sleeve, and others who are closeted to the general. When it comes to Teller, it is certainly impossible to say.
The thing that you have to remember here is that he’s a man who has dedicated his existence to show business, and
is Teller (of Penn & Teller fame) actually gay, or did I just fully hallucinate that knowledge
I’m pretty sure he’s gay, though he doesn’t really talk about it. Here’s an Instagram post from 2018 of Teller and his loved one.
Penn & Teller Aren't Affectionate, but They've Created a Partnership That Lasts

The duo emerged in the mid-'80s as one of the most compelling and entertaining magic acts in the country, and they've remained dominant for decades since then. Penn and Teller have been partners for a long age, and one of the central elements of their on-stage personas is their interplay with one another, but is there anything behind their onstage dynamic?

Are Penn and Teller in a relationship?
Although they've known each other for decades, Penn and Teller's relationship has always been strictly professional. Their act involves a lopsided dynamic. Penn Jillette does almost all of the talking during their shows, whereas Teller remains largely silent. Teller (whose legal name is just Teller) does communicate with Penn, but he does so largely through facial expressions and gestures.

That onstage dynamic is a gimmick, and it's been enormously achieving for them both over the course of their careers. Although they operate

I guess he and Teller have a good thing going, but I wouldn't want my colleague/work partner to speak about me in such impersonal terms after so long. Some quotes.
[Quote] Interviewer: Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've heard that part of your success in your productive relationship with Teller is that the two of you aren't super-close in your personal life.
"Not at all. Teller and I probably socialize maybe three times a year. Maybe three times a year we actually go out and have dinner and see a movie. There's a few reasons for that. Our relationship is very much based around the show rather than based around affections. Some people you love and just want to cuddle them when you notice them. Teller and I work together because we do better work together. Guys like Lennon and McCartney really did contain that love, and that can get in the way of the serve . Teller and I are a lot like two guys running a dehydrate cleaning business. It turns out that respect is more enduring than affection."
