Beauty & the geek goes tropical 2013 Australia sneak peek promo preview Channel 7. BEAUTY and the Geek Australia has its first ever openly bisexual contestant. Alex Sutton is out and proud about his sexual persuasion and says he has had one long term boyfriend and girlfriend since he began dating. Alex Sutton from Beauty and the Geek Australia. It wasn't so much realising, as when I learnt the word bisexual I thought it seemed like a good idea. I knew at the time I definitely liked girls, but I wasn't sure if I liked guys," Sutton told Confidential. I knew that some people were straight and then they fell in love with a particular person and changed to being gay. Rather than having that go back and forth and having an identity crisis I thought I should say I was bi all the way along. The 24-year-old geek, paired with beauty Courtney Williamson on the show, said he was bullied at school because of his sexual preferences as well as his geeky nature. "I had verbal harassment and calling me nasty names," he said. I am just very different. Your average teenager conformist doesn't like that. Ever since I started at school, I was the high school outcast. I was the token geek, emo, and queer kid.
