As fun as that fanfiction is, there is no textual evidence for the Joseph's kitonet pasim being made from his mother's bridal gown (especially as first marriage bridalwear was plain white cloth, something Joseph's cloak was famous for not being.) Additionally, Joseph's story is chronologically VERY VERY early in what wasn't yet even Hebrew culture, so would likely bear zero resemblance to post-Canaan Hebrew culture.
The reference to 'long sleeves' has to do with his brother's jealousy at the quality and material excess of the garment. Not the source the garment was made from.
It's kind of bigoted of you to assume that he was gay just because his brothers picked on him.
"Pasim" probably doesn't mean multicolored. It can also mean long-sleeved or fine-quality, and the only other place it occurs in Hebrew scripture is when it's referring to Tamar's robe, where it's described as the type of clothing worn by virgin daughters.
I can see you're emotionally invested in this because it probably empowers some aspect of your identity, so there's really no point in continuing.
Some day you may understand the value of seeing clearly, I encourage you to pursue that.
Dude, it's literally what's written in the text.
Just because Donny Osmund wore a multicolored robe and danced on stage doesn't mean his portrayal was accurate to the text. The New Testament also doesn't include Charlton Heston trying to give water to Jesus at the crucifiction.
