Ziro the Hutt, Jabba's uncle, is being called the first gay character in the Star Wars galaxy. Well, aside from the "love that dare not growl its name" that Chewbacca feels for Han Solo.
George Lucas asked his animators to think of, no shit, Truman Capote when constructing Ziro's character. Who wants to bet that Lucas didn't know who Truman Capote was till he saw Philip Seymour Hoffman in Capote?

It's kinda sad that even in a galaxy far far away the "gay uncle" stereotype holds fast.

I suspected it once... Hutt and I were having drinks together and he ordered a tangerine martini. But I just thought he really liked citrus.
