WHEN WERE FRODO AND SAM FIRST NCEPTUALIZED AS GAY?
What's your opn the the gay subtext between Sam and Frodo?
It's clear that Tolkien would have read The Iliad, The Odyssey, etc and would have no doubt unrstood the homosexualy folk stori and legends.
While Merry and Pipp seem to have a much more normal iendship whout a lot of homoeroticism. My iends sist that Sam and odo are gay for each other. I've seen a lot of posts on Twter recently of people tryg to ship Frodo and Sam together sayg that they are clearly gay and a uple (I see alot om LGBT ers) and I wanted to know your thoughts.
WAS FRODO BAGGS GAY AND IS SAM LOVE WH HIM?
Not g om a homophobic pot of view, but the male characters all show love and affectn towards each other, rg about each other and showg emotnal vulnerabily, and to rce that iendship to "oh 's bee they are gay" I see as a form toxic masculy that the only way for men to have emotns and re for each other is "bee gay" To me tak away om the characters the same way that men n't be real iends wh women bee they jt want to sleep wh them. Jt to reerate, this isn't om a homophobic place, if the characters were gay, that's fe, i see more as toxic masculy.
I thk bothers me bee I'm a relatively emotnal guy and alt wh a lot of gay jok growg up bee of that toxic masculy, and saw the fellowship as reprentatn that "men" n have feelgs too, so to jt ship the characters as a gay relatnship kd of nfirms the taxi views. Someone said Frodo uld very well be gay, and I n see that, also if you want to ship Legolas and Gimli, go for , make their petn have sexual tensn stead of beg more racially based.
