DRAGON AGE INQUISN'S DORIAN CHARACTER IS "LEGIMATELY GAY," BWARE SAYS
I have only read three chapters The Picture of Dorian Gray, and the homosexual and homosocial unrton are impossible to ignore as a 21st Century rear. By wrg a story which homosexual ias or actns uld be seen jt as homosocial, allows Wil to talk about ias that were taboo at the time. After all, if anyone tried to make a fs about this book havg homosexual ias, Wil uld jt claim that he wrote the book to be strictly about iends, so mt fact be that person who has the homosexual ias.
A new edn of The Picture of Dorian Gray, featurg handwrten notatn om Osr Wil, reveals the extent to which the wrer grappled wh how much homoerotic ntent he should clu his is the first time the origal mancript Wil’s own wrg has been published and monstrat how he self-censored some of the most romantic paragraphs. He ton down the more overt referenc to the homoerotic nature of Basil Hallward’s relatnship wh Dorian, crossg out his nfsn that “the world be young to me when I hold his hand” the mancript also clus passag – later removed om the novel we know today – that show how Wil wanted to shock his Victorian rears by openly wrg about homosexual feelgs. "Twistg classil characters like Dorian Gray to a Homosexual".
If the novel is homoerotic, is also misogynistic. Dorian Gray was clearly based on a livg person, a member of Wil’s lerary homosexual circle the early 1890s when the story was first published.
