You know sooner or later you're going to hear someone assert that Norman
Mailer, Lugi Perindillo, Charles Bukowski, Raymond Carver and Ernie
Hemmingway were all gay.  Why is it that any 20th century male who writes
about perfering the company of men is clearly hiding homosexual
tendincies?  Why is it that someone who struggles with machoism, someone
who is trying to prove himself a man, define himself is definately hiding
sexual desires for men.  I find the whole thing upsetting.  It's not that
they couldn't be gay, but damn it let's have a little more evidence than
"repression."
