Being a Gay Wrestler in Japan’s DDT Promotion
Danshoku Dino is known for portraying a hyperbolic, hypersexualized gay character in Japan’s DDT promotion. Some criticize Dino’s provocative style of wrestling for relying on gay stereotypes, but Dino sees his character as a comedic element in DDT’s pastiche of American pro-wrestling. From THE WRESTLERS, Wednesdays at 10p and 11p.
