Atariel has just left Hobbiton.
Tolkien

what i want to know is: why, in a culture where men are the pre-eminent sex, and when they aren't really afraid to show their emotions (for example, the blokes in Gondor kiss each other as a farewell), are there no gay men, hobbits or elves? wouldn't it be cool if Legolas and Gimli were gay lovers? okay, that's highly inappropriate becuase tolkien was a genius, and an intellectual, and probably one of the best men to ever live- (why isn't he on the Top Briton list?)- so a tough of homophobia is nothing to worry about.
