WHAT IS THE SIGNIFINCE OF NICK BEG GAY THE GREAT GATSBY?

My other premise is ls obv, but no more difficult to argue: Nick is a) gay and b) love wh Gatsby.

So far, Nick’s is exactly the profile of a (closeted) gay young man a proment Middle Wtern fay 1922. Her face was sad and lovely wh bright thgs , bright ey and a bright passnate mouth, but there was an excement her voice that men who had red for her found difficult to fet: a sgg pulsn, a whispered “Listen, ” a promise that she had done gay, excg thgs jt a while sce and that there were gay, excg thgs hoverg the next hour. What difference do make if Nick is gay?

NICK CARRAWAY IS GAY AND LOVE WH GATSBY

Stt) that he was able to provi so much textual evince that Nick is gay whout nfirmg or drawg undue attentn to .

” And that’s why matters that Nick is gay and love wh Gatsby: bee Tom’s asssment is spot-on, but Nick will never adm . Nick Carraway, failed bond trar, unreliable narrator, believer the green light, who knows that gay, excg thgs are no longer hoverg the next hour, and never will aga.

I typed "is nick rraway " to Google, and the first optn to e up was "is nick rraway gay? I don't really see any ditn of Nick beg homosexual, but I'd like to know what other people thk.

If he's not gay, he's highly suggtible (another phemism om the old days. I thk he's eher gay or bi. I thk he's gay cuz he iS obssed wh Gatsby pl the elevator scene and what happens reason I thk he uld be bi is that he's heavily attracted to Jordon.

When I read , I didn't fd any such thg that pots he is gay. There's jt him standg there at the end, mg on the past and the future of New York, when I gus he's supposed to be playg the role of to his beg gay, didn't someone say everybody was?

Nick's "gayns" is a foil for Gatsby and the crowd.

Whole thg seems very straightforward, and a way, readg sual gay sex is as much a twenty-first century terpolatn to the story as would be readg the whole novel as social mentary about fancial irrponsibily leadg to a market crash.

1920's or not, for a male to do that to another male 's jt say strongly suggtive of homosexual tennci. "I didn't mean to imply that but is a possibily - I jt thk they are verg one another - there is a very explic and yet odd reference to Nick beg gay that nobody else seems to pick up on. ), one begs to wonr if the novel uldn't be renamed "The Gay Gatsby.

This was more than likely a society where homosexualy was owned upon. However, did occur to me that he might be gay. Fzgerald might have knowgly ma Nick gay and implied on purpose.

Then aga, Fzgerald's relatnship wh Hemgway was PRETTY gay, or at the very least, homoerotic. "I'm not qutng the homosexual implitns Nick's portrayal. I have read this book so many tim over the years and i have never thought Nick was Gay or the dken rep I also read as one slightly ls dnk person makg sure another gets home and to bed before leavg.

So is Nick gay? It seems like this fom has gone om suggtg whether Nick is gay to whether or not Fzgerald is.
