Gay subtext?

No secret meaning, Lush - we're not playing records backward to hear "Paul is Dead" [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] -simply exploring implications and undertones. There's no difference between exploring the homoerotic undertones of Frodo's relationship with Sam, or the psych.-socio undertones of the inherent nature of the ring. If you can't explore them, then there's not much to be said that hasn't already been stated clearly in the books. Except to debate balrog wings (I'm pro-wing) and the direction to hang toilet paper (outward of course).

No book strikes such a true chord with readers without having a complete human resonance, even if it's not directly stated.

I think there are a one or two conservatives, who would go away in time. The rest just show their age. Too bad, Eve. I don't like bullies *slow wicked grin* and like it less when they win. For now. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]
