The thread continued, "and David basically says yes and that Ilya said that they talked about this before and he was like that's cool and then joked 'just don't try to f*** me.'" David also added that he wants to try everything (implying that he also wants to be with a guy). So is this David lowkey coming out and playing it cool? Then they completely switched topics."
Other commenters responded in the thread by stating that David has "pretty much confirmed ... he's bi-curious." Others wondered if this is just a prelude to David coming out as gay, too.

Reddit user oatmealchia writes, "I wonder if this is kind of that first step into the coming out process that lots of youtubers take. I.e. denying rumors and claiming they're straight, saying they're bi-curious, saying they're bi, and then coming out as gay. This is just me jumping to baseless conclusions and it's none of my business anyway, but regardless, he has a supportive group of friends and I'm happy for him either way."
