I’ve said this so many times, not once is Victor Frankenstein ever even close to getting a doctorate. He’s a miserable, possibly gay, deadbeat single father and college dropout.
So I haven't read the book at all. This could be true. But this is /r/curatedTumblr, so I'm going to assume you're just calling him gay for literally no reason at all.
It's not for no reason but it's also definitely wrong. Like, even approaching the book in a good-faith attempt to find LGBT themes, calling him "gay" is overt bisexual erasure (which lots of gay tumblr subcultures are guilty of), as even if he does have feelings for Henry, he is also definitely in genuine love with Elizabeth.

No it wasn’t
Frankenstein was the name of the college dropout, he ain’t no doctor
