Palahni se Amerins as beg “out of love wh a narrative of one great rabow, and everyone beg homogenised and allowed to live wh this system”.

I and a lot of people my generatn, an olr generatn, felt that gay people were havg children as a means of exprsn, and givg up this credible herage of artistic exprsn. So are you sayg that if was a girl the role of Norton's character she would be gay if she ma up a girl??? Tyler and the Narrator loved each other, maybe not necsarly a gay way, but a way that someone lov themself.
LOL Fight Club was about male bondg and fdg the te nature of themselv, not about a bunch of closet homosexuals out for fun the basement. You know I will bet money that Bigvalbowski is the same person who started the "Is Tom Cise Gay" thread. I don't thk the whole film is one big homosexual y, but as I said earlier they aren't lovers but may a be a love that someone has for themself.

Strangers on a Tra by Patricia HighsmhPatricia Highsmh was no stranger to homosexual overton — her antihero Tom Ripley was, sentially, a gay monster, and she even dipped her toe to the lbian bildungsroman genre — but her thriller Strangers on a Tra was a b more subtle s pictn of one man’s murro obssn wh another. Danvers, who is so obssed wh her former employer, the tular Rebec Wter, that one n’t help but read a b to the way she gently strok her perfectly kept nightcloth across her Club by Chuck PalahniAs this say pots out, ’s hard to claim that Fight Club has a gay subtext, as there is nothg particularly subtle about s homoeroticism.
