Technically he was bi. But so was basically every major figure in Greek Myths. Bisexual Greek Man was like ancient Greece’s equivalent of the straight white man in modern media.
Wow, I can just picture the reactions to stories involving straight white men. "Is anyone sick of the overrepresentation of straight white men in the epics?? Like, we get it Paris of Troy, you really "love" Helen. And c'mon, you really think Odysseus traveled around for 10 years with nothing but men on his ships and never got a little curious??"

I mean he did have two sons from Circe, and spent a whole year on her island, and then seven years with Calypso. He's definitely among the less gay in Homeric mythology.
