Live and die as the food of the lunar lares or die a glorious solar hero, killing government officials. That's a kind of initiation, I guess.

It might be fun to make a flowchart to help the perplexed litfag with his life choices but it would be complicated since there are such a multifarious range of options available.


WHICH WAY, WESTERN FAGGOT WITH LITERARY INCLINATIONS?

STRATEGY: Embrace fag hedonism, get anal fissure from a sailor sodomizing you, turn to the Anglican Church.
MODEL: W. H. Auden

STRATEGY: Embrace San Francisco fag hedonism but counterbalance it with strict discipline in traditional poetic forms.
MODEL: Thom Gunn

STRATEGY: Flee from the sordid reality of your fag desires into an ever-increasing labyrinth of subordinate clauses.
MODEL: Henry James

STRATEGY: Write mournful verses about the brevity of life. Pour your energies into classical scholarship. Establish dominance in academia through your excoriating reviews of other people's Latin & Greek translations.
MODEL: A. E. Housman

STRATEGY: Embrace fag hedonism, show your countrymen how to write great blank verse drama, get killed in a tavern brawl before you grow old and ugly.
MODEL: Christopher Marlowe

STRATEGY: Embrace fag hedonism, write long navel-gazing sentences about every minute detail of your pointless prissy jewish mother's-boy fag existence.
MODEL: Marcel Proust

STRATEGY: Marry & procreate. Sublimate your fag desires in obsessive concern over upper-body strength. Skip leg day. Die in an absurd coup attempt.
MODEL: Yukio Mishima

~~

STRATEGY: Embrace the "love 'em and leave 'em" role of a freespirited sexual predator. Collect snails. Chain-smoke. Die alone but unrepentant.
MODEL: Patricia Highsmith

STRATEGY: Live with reasonable decorum but write historical novels about Alexander and other fags thereby revealing your SAPPHIC LUSTS to everyone anyway.
MODEL: Mary Renault

STRATEGY: Live with a woman but cunningly do it in Scandinavia so no-one notices. Write children's books about Moomins and draw them without genitalia thereby avoiding the issue of sex altogether.
MODEL: Tove Jansson

Erm, based department?

I've always found faggotry perplexing and the OP image made me realize why. A lot of existential philosophy (existential thought of any kind) struggles to discover valid by-lanes around the materialist suggestion that human beings are mere organisms and if there is any "purpose" to the vast illusion of intelligent consciousness then it is observably to perpetuate genes and summarily, neatly perish. Elaborate thought and theory often comes off like a big cope in this regard, where the hairless ape contrives reasons for existing because it (the ape) is just so damn smart and somehow the only organism whose finger connects with that of God or whomever alleged, higher and ever-validating being awaits the penultimate arrival of the human mind, the thing and place and event that's meant to provide the struggling and mud-spattered human race with this extramaterial enlightenment and all-illuminating revelation that it's not just another organism in a biome. But then that same niggling impulse, that pesky materialism, the genetic reality, the yearning for fickity-fuck bubbles back to the surface for some mysterious reason when CLEARLY there's more to life. There must be. How could there not? The philosophizer has spent all this time mulling over riddles and complex considerations rooted in the works of people who also spent a disproportionate amount of their finite life doing that (and thankfully writing it down; imagine how unenlightened we'd be if they just had sex instead.) Then some other things happen and suddenly this enlightened and self-aware individual so above the mere rigors of animal existence is sticking their penis into incorrect holes on the incorrect gender and self-flagellating over the absurdity of the universe.
