* ''WebAnimation/HazbinHotel'': Angel Dust was a ruthless member of the Mafia when he was alive, and was very gay. In his scrapped backstory, he was killed by his older brother Arackniss for being gay. In canon, he died of a drug overdose, but he was still on shaky terms with his brother due to his sexuality and it's implied that was a major reason why he turned to drugs in the first place. In hell, he's turned into an anthropomorphic spider demon who dresses in pink, wears knee-high boots, and has a tuft of fur on his chest that resembles a pair of very large female breasts. He's also an extremely famous gay porn star and has no chill when he wants to have sex with someone. Even after seeing how terrified Charlie and Vaggie were of [[TheDreaded Alastor]], Angel very bluntly offers to give him a blowjob first chance he gets, even smugly saying it was Alastor's loss when he gets turned down due to Alastor being asexual. But the fact that he's turned the "gay" part up to eleven doesn't mean he's lost any of the "gangster" part of "gayngster". He's still willing to shoot up a territory at the drop of a hat, especially if his friend Cherri Bomb asks him to.

* ''Series/{{Caprica}}'': Sam Adama is hitman in the Tauron Mafia, he talks to his nephew [[Series/BattlestarGalactica2003 William]] about the days in the old neighborhood when he'd keep striking out with guys while his brother Joseph got all the girls. This is a subversion in the sense that the Twelve Colonies have no discrimination or stereotyping against homosexuals and bisexuals and never have, so the fact that he's gay is completely non-significant (the word doesn't even exist). Sam also wears a wedding ring, as he is HappilyMarried to Larry.

* ''Series/GangRelated'': The member of the Lords gang who gives up the shooters turns out to be a closeted gay man with a boyfriend. He agrees to go into WitnessProtection in the deal if they're together. They marry before going in, with the cops commenting he probably likes the fact they can be open about their relationship now.

* Gauron from ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic'' could count, though he's more towards the side of being a terrorist than a gangster. However, he does do shady dealings with smuggling in the underground world, and generally ''acts'' like one. His brutal, macho behavior is definitely a contrast to his [[StalkerWithACrush twisted and obsessive love]] for Sousuke, making him a pretty good example of being a StraightGay.

While V can never become a fully-fledged gang member, they can take different jobs from fixers who have strong ties to them (like [[DeterminedWidow Wakako]] or [[BadassPreacher Padre]]). While all Vs count for this trope, the ones with a [[MultipleChoicePast streetkid lifepath]] are openly stated to be raised by different gangs. No matter their sexual orientation, V will always be a tough-as-nails mercenary. While the player can customize V's looks and make them look as [[CampGay camp]] as they want, V can't really act in a camp way (and, since kitch is the hottes trend in 2077, their looks might not mean much in-universe), so untill V hires a same-sex [[OptionalSexualEncounter joytoy]] or starts dating [[GayOption Kerry Eurodyne or Judy Alvarez]], nothing really points to them being gay/bi.
