I forget which interview it was but it was for S3 re: Jaskier being queer and his relationship with Radovid, so it's recent and it's a good interview but there's one part in particular that stood out to me.

And it's when Joey is asked if he was always playing Jaskier as queer and Joey replied that, in season one, he was playing Jaskier as straight because, as far as he knows, Dandelion is straight in the books.

To repeat: Joey said he was playing Jaskier as straight in season one.

So, I have to admit that I'm very confused now. Far be it from me to accuse him of lying, especially since I don't know him and can't read his mind or anything like that. So, presuming that he's being honest....

... That's supposed to be Jask being heterosexual?

That's Joey playing the bard as heterosexual?

He's one of my favorite actors and I think he's fantastic. I'm not accusing him of bad acting, exactly, because frankly, he was born to play Jaskier in particular but he's also just good in general. I'm just trying to process that that's what Joey thought Jaskier being het looked like.

Because the interview makes it sound like the idea to play Jaskier as queer didn't happen until before S3 began but we could all see that Jaskier was fruity AF. We all enjoyed his defensiveness with "nobody leaves any tastes in my mouth, thank you very much" and we all noticed the pause before "artists". Tumblr had a meltdown over "I'm not not into it."

Again, I'm not accusing him of lying. I'm just trying to process how, at all these steps along the way, Joey was apparently like, "Yes, this is 100% the heterosexual way to proceed here."

Maybe he really does just get possessed by Jaskier and that explains why Joey's intention to play Jaskier as straight earlier in the show came off as queer? Because Jaskier just cannot come across as heterosexual despite Joey's admirable acting talents? Jaskier's fruitiness was just too strong?

I'm just so happy the bard is canonically pansexual. I'm pansexual and to know one of my favorite characters, and one of my favorite fantasy characters, is like me in that regard? I get to see someone like me in a fantasy show and it's just this healthy, positive thing? It means so much! And I'm so grateful for Joey wanting to do this and wanting to do it so carefully and thoughtfully.

Gotta love when people tell me sapioromantism/sapiosexuality isn't real...

While at the same time acknowledging that demiromantism/demisexuality exists.

So... You're telling me it's okay to be exclusively able to romantically fall in love with/be sexually turned on by an emotional bond you share with someone.

But you can't frakking be exclusively able to romantically fall in love with/be sexually turned on by an intellectual one?!?!?!

I mean I'm a frakking demisexual (not sapiosexual), and you've got zero problem convincing me sapiosexuality is real!

I feel a sexual rush SPECIFICALLY over the way I am emotionally relating with another person (regardless of the type of emotional relation), for frak's sake!

Imagining how it must feel to want to fuck someone over the way our brains work/connect together is super easy, barely an inconvenience! How is that not real?!?!?!

For the romantic aspect, all I've got to do is replace "wanting to fuck someone" by "having a crush on them", and voilà! Sapioromantism!

And yeah, I know that it's often phrased as "being attracted to highly intelligent people", but that's like saying that demi is "being attracted to highly loving people".

Guys, the way we perceive intelligence and emotions is a very intimate phenomenon. And I personally find friendships as sexually attractive as romances.

I've never been more likely to want to fuck a person I've got romantic feelings for, than I've been likely to want to fuck someone I've got platonic or alterous feelings for.

But I need to emotionally connect.

And there are many different types of intelligence a human being can express that makes them romantically or sexually attractive.

Emotional intelligence, spatial intelligence, musical intelligence, logical intelligence...

It's much harder to quantify intelligence than it is to qualify it, and sapiosexuals do have intelligence preferences.

On the TV show "The Witcher", sapioromantic Jaskier appears to have a romantic preference for (or be strongly romantically attracted to, at least) emotional intelligence and insightfulness, if you're wondering how sapioromantic attraction might look like.

I'm actually exclusively sexually attracted to people that gives off what I call a "geeky vibe". You know, that look like they tend to get really passionate about a specific subject/discipline they deeply enjoy (videogames, movies, series, science, music theory, rocks... Whatever it is!) and "geek out" about it on a regular basis.

My partner is insanely into electric cars technology, and each time he starts talking about it, the research that's being done on recycling batteries, etc., he goes from a usually introverted personality to really animated, passionate, and expressive one; his eyes get that light and happiness to them, his skin gets slightly flushed, there's a unique musicality to the verbal flow of his words, etc.

He's also a D&D player, and that's insanely hot to me (although I've never personally played D&D)!

Seriously, do yourself a favor, and watch a bunch of people play D&D together. If they're really into their characters, their quests, and have a good DM, it's pure geek porn!

Those are huge turn ons! You want to have sex tonight? Get your geek on, babe! That's what I'm talking about!

I don't care whatever gender you have, as long as you're a geek!

That's what I'm sexually into. Geeks. Not men, women, or people outside the binary. Geeks.

Actually, if "geekiness" is considered as a form of intelligence, perhaps I could be considered somewhere on the whole sapiosexual spectrum (I just can't say specifically what type of intellect geeks display that triggers the attraction), too!

Because developing an emotional bond with a non-geek fails to trigger any sense of sexual attraction.

I need to find you aesthetically attractive (let's face it, demi-pansexuals can be as "shallow", when it comes to being attracted to someone's looks as people from any other sexual orientations. There's just a secondary delay for us to get there), feel those "geeky vibes" emanating from you, and be emotionally bonded to you based on high levels of trust (specifically), in order to find you sexually attractive.

Those are the mains patterns I've noticed are a constant for me.

So yeah... Sapioromantism and sapiosexuality not being real? Get out!
