What was Shakespeare's status?

Answer 1

I don't exactly know what status you're asking about, but the question that often comes up was if Shakespeare was a homosexual. There isn't really any conclusive evidence in that direction. He was married and had 3 or 4 children, but some of his sonnets seem to be addressed to a younger man. If this isn't what you wanted to know, just clarify your question and I will do my best to answer it.
