>>25315536I am normal, but I don't ultimately dislike homosexual men or women. Provided that they are not allowed to marry, not allowed to adopt, don't host sexual parades for families to see, don't constantly campaign for undefinable and endless rights (if its legal you have all the rights you need), don't teach about it in schools, don't make it the crux of their character, then I don't see a problem. I am not religious btw, I am a former atheist leaning towards agnosticism, but believe religion is the foundation of all human societies and at least a cultural form of religion is required for a functional civilisation. As for literature >Petronius' Satyricon>William Burroughs - Queer/Junky/Naked Lunch>Sappho's fragmentary poetryThese are the only homosexuality adjacent works I have ever read.
>>25315586A little (a lot) off topic, but I think your take on religion is illogical. If we separate the cultural form from the divine and thus unquestionable source, what separates this cultural set of ethical laws from the law?If you dismiss the infallibility of the divine authority to make these cultural commands, why shouldn’t these cultural ethical and moral laws be implemented into earthly law? Shouldn’t common earthly law be the proper place for the backbone of functional civilization? What my ESL ass is trying to say that imposing divinely authored codes as ”cultural form” is dishonest at best, especially if you don’t believe in the divine authority. Also if the subjects have no option to make choices outside of these codes, so of course it becomes ”their culture”.
>>25315536>Platos Symposium>Marcus Aurelius faggy letters to his tutor>Fragments from Sappho>something about all the fags in renaissance Florence >Mishimas complete works>you're diary OP
>>25315600I'm sure you're right, but I just struggle to believe in a specific deity. I think it benefits everyone if the vast majority do believe in the divine that hovers above this cultural and moral religion. I just haven't been able to make that leap of faith, yet.
>>25315536Blood Meridian, it contains a surprisingly graceful and historically accurate treatment of homosexuality before the 20th century. I'm surprised it doesn't show up on more lists of books with prominent LGBTQ characters.
>>25315638>CatullusBut why? His desire for his Lesbia (nothing gay about that name, I named my son Analfag and he's hetero) is strictly heterosexual. References to a previous homo, Sappho that is, doesn't make his poems gay.

>>25315536Reverend Insanity.
>>25315600An appeal to rules external to what's verifiable is an appeal to divinity. Atheists don't exist. But in this case he isn't even doing that, it's verifiable that living by religious rules is a better survival strategy than not. The appeal to divinity comes into it as the unquestioned will to survive.
>>25315536you shouldn't read books where you expect there to be a lot of ungovernable poop and bodily fluids.https://www.brighteon.com/3260c0c4-070c-4b6f-96c0-e65725407833

>>25317291>/co/>not a fag
>>25317503>/lit/poster calling anyone else a fag
Michelangelo, the painter, wrote beautiful poems about his boytoy Tommaso dei Cavalieri in the tradition of Petrarch.>>25317291The past is surprisingly gay, in the male sense, and since nothing worth reading has been written after the year 1928 there are surprisingly few lesbian works. I recently read Carmilla, a vampyre tale that's basically Dracula replaced with a hot milf. I recommend it.
>>25317511>implying I'm not also a /co/mrade and a fagTakes one to know one.
>>25315536The gulag archipelago
>>25317503Since when is /co/ gay?I mean, feminists are still screeching at every superheroine for being a 10/10 cumbucket.https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/21504857.2014.916327And even beyond the capeshit stuff, they got Manara, Jodorowsky, Royo, Gimenez... I know only one gay comic book writer, and even his latest series has the main villain being a 10/10 whore who is constantly completely naked.Insane that Jodorowsky is still alive at 97, btw. How does he do it?
>>25317538Since at least 2011 when I started lurking the board. '/co/ is love' was a common saying and /co/ was known as an extremely woke board, even if the term woke was not used back then.>his latest series has the main villain being a 10/10 whore who is constantly completely nakedEhrm, sauce?
>>25317573>Since at least 2011 when I started lurking the board. '/co/ is love' was a common saying and /co/ was known as an extremely woke board, even if the term woke was not used back then.I barely ever been on /co/, didn't know that. I used to read boomer comics back when I was younger, but /co/ was too focused on cartoons and capeshit, so it didn't land for me.>sauce?W0rldtr33.The author is probably an oldfag from /b/ too, judging by how he knows about cp and gore spam (Picrel is from the first few pages of W0rldtr33).
>>25316285Perhaps your last will and testament as well, in which you leave everything to your secret gay lover?
