Walt actively denies Jesse's masculinity by sabotaging his relationships with women. Jesse having a girlfriend, a legitimate relationship with a woman? A ridiculous farce - she doesnt really love you, she's a whore and a junkie. Walt lets her die to keep Jesse for himself. Jesse has another girlfriend, this time a mother? Walt tells him to break up with her and later poisons their son to keep Jesse for himself.

Walter sees Jesse's relationships with men as a threat to his role as patriarch, and he sees Jesse's relationships with women as a threat to Jesse's role as bitch. If Jesse gets to step into his role as man, provider and protector, he'll stop being Walter's bitch.

I don't ship waltjesse in the "i think they should fuck," nor do I think there is actually sexual subtext in the show between them

I do, however, think that waltjesse is "canon" in the fact that Jesse as he is now is who Skyler once was. A young, vulnerable companion who is alone and reliant on Walt. Someone who looks up to him and views him almost as a god.

At the end of the day, I do think Walter is heterosexual, as there's nothing more heterosexual than seeing your wife as an object to bring you pleasure, and despising her for attempting to be anything else. Its just that Walt doesn't see Jesse as a man, he sees him as an object the same way he sees Skyler, and in that way he can project a psychosexual relationship onto him.

People reading sexual tension into waltjesse aren't wrong that its there, and I think the analysis of Walter as a closted gay or bi man is fascinating, but personally I view him as heterosexual and simply denying Jesse his status as "man." In this way, his attempts to cut Jesse off from his romantic partners makes sense - Jesse dating Jane or being a provider for Andrea and Brock breaks Walt's illusion. It reasserts Jesse's status as man instead of object.

Skyler's status as a mom, an accountant, a woman with sexual desires of her own and as someone who fights back when Walt attempts to assault her similarly breaks the illusion to Walt that she is an object.

Jesse, and Skyler at one point in her life, is too young, insecure, and vulnerable to know to fight back against his status as object and dependent. Skyler has outgrown the acceptance of this status. No longer is she a 19 year old waitress and student barely scraping by - she has an income she can live on, she has a social life/support system outside of Walt, she takes care of most of their finances so she doesn't need him to pay bills or file taxes. She's able to exist independently from Walt. Jesse hasn't. He's almost exclusively dependent on Walt, and through that status I could see Walt expressing sexual frustrations through Jesse even if he is heterosexual.

Is waltjesse romantic? Not really. Is waltjesse sexual? Potentially. Is waltjesse familial? In a way.

I forget who said it, but someone in a post on here said that Walt abuses Jesse as both a wife and a son, and that really is the most concise way to put it.

I killed a dog. I put him down, I watched him go. I was looking him straight in the eyes. He didn't know what was happening, he didn't know why. He was just scared
