‘Stay Gay’ is a quote comeback from the original saying ‘Stay Gold, Ponyboy’. It was originally created from the controversy theory that Johnny Cade and Ponyboy Curtis from The Outsiders had something to do with the LGBTQ community. Some of the fandom basically believed that the pair were lesbian from their tight relationship. Even though the books author, S.E Hinton has covered the theory from a Twitter thread, many individuals are yet to believe that the two boys were just regular friends.
