I came across this

... and my first thought was, "couldn't he just be gay?"

I mean... is it that farfetched to these guys that they have to come up with all these other possible theories, or is it just a matter of safety concerns that they conjecture this way? honestly, I need to know if my emmediate concern about the seeming denial of powerful masculine men being possibly homosexual is valid or not.

besides which, I figured this would be an entertaining brain-teaser for us! xd can gangsters be gay without freaking people out? do they realy have such affectionate displays as codified or symbolic gestures rather than simple human romance?

leastways here in america it seems like mafia bosses are romanticized and depicted as sympathetic humans the same as all of us. they are given excuses, and made to be glorified examples of what the american dream is. in some cases I can agree that they deserve this kind of representation, though in others it makes me sick that cold-hearted bhavior is so smiled upon.

but in europe it seems as though big dons like this are inhuman. they are shown in a light that makes one think they exist as a sepperate species, apart from the rest. like they don't have feelings, only business concerns.

what are your thoughts?
