do you think ozians speculate about glinda’s sexuality (and by inclusion her relationship with elphaba)? like are there lesbian glinda conspiracy theorists out there in oz hanging on to every word she says in case she drops hints? i def feel like she would be a camp icon amongst queer ozians. also i think the lesbian glinda believers would call themselves gaylindas.
This is a fun theory and all but I actually am of the opinion that sexuality is not nearly as "big of a deal" in Ozian society as it is in ours
For example, in the book, Crope and Tibbett are out and unashamedly gay and no one bats an eye.
Also in the book, Elphaba's parents are in a polyamorous relationship and again, it's not big deal
Even in the musical, there's a lot of blurring of gender roles. Just take a look at some of the ensemble outfits in "Dancing Through Life"
(All photos from @wicked1280px )
So basically, gender and sexuality isn't as contentious of a topic in Oz, at least from how I understand it.
To answer your question though, I think there would be speculation among members of her staff but not so much in the general public, cause she's just so GOOD at keeping up that facade with Fiyero/Chuffrey (depending on what universe you're in)
I DO think that "Glinda The Good" would be a very popular style emulated at drag shows.
I hope this kind of answers your question? I have Opinions about sexuality in the Ozian universe so... idk

All gay + Suzie, Coincidence? I don't think so (and even if it is, it just made me laugh and feel joy for a moment so...)
