While the Gaybian Ruse [[Fail|failed]], Chris was still able to slip in "subtle" hints that he was less than sincere about his confession. Viewers familiar with Chris's YouTube videos will notice that he is not wearing his [[Medallion]], and he is holding his [[Optimus Prime]] toy throughout both recordings. Conspicuously, a [[Sailor Moon Poster of Fail|Sailor Moon Poster]] is also present in the background. Also, Chris states that he's being forced to come out the the closet, which is a surreptitious way of communicating that he is being forced to come out of the closet.

Threatening Julie with harm, vengeful Clyde Cash demanded that Chris come out of the closet on YouTube in exchange for her safety. Ambivalent about how to handle the situation, Chris posts a video in which he filibusters for nearly three minutes and finally declares himself to be a "gaybian". This didn't satisfy Cash, and so Chris went back and made another video shortly afterward, this time saying the all-important words "I'm gay".
While the Gaybian Ruse failed, Chris was still able to slip in "subtle" hints that he was less than sincere about his confession. Viewers familiar with Chris's YouTube videos will notice that he is not wearing his Medallion, and he is holding his Optimus Prime toy throughout both recordings. Conspicuously, a Sailor Moon Poster is also present in the background. Also, Chris states that he's being forced to come out the the closet, which is a surreptitious way of communicating that he is being forced to come out of the closet. Chris would later disavow these videos on the following day, confirming that the medallion, Optimus Prime, and Sailor Moon posters were indeed clues that he was not, in fact, gay. This would seem to put his agreement with Clyde in abeyance, but Julie has apparently been unharmed ever since.
Notable in both of these videos is how averse Christian is to even saying the word "gay", even when he isn't using the word to describe himself.

And, uh, it can be… very infuriating… when, uh… people misinterpret, uh… th-things into slanderous, uh, misunderstandings.

[inhales sharply and groans] I have—so, like, I'm being forced to, uh… come out of… a closet, even though I already came out of one closet… emotionally, where I have learned… to, uh, put my emotions into a good… sound assortment of words… and, uh, ho—and honest input. And it—s—and s—and even though it really… pains me a lot… to…

Yep. I'm gaaay.
[sigh] Okay. Yep. So… did I really come out of the closet there?
That just depends on y'all—how y'all understand it!
Peace.
