If you assume that the rubbish you see about gays on episodic TV is in any way accurate, you're in for a lot of sad shocks. A lot of gay men and lesbians get into opposite-sex relationships either before they realize their orientation, while they're trying to deny it, or just out of curiosity - and I think there are more bisexual people than most folks realize. But IMO, somebody who's 95% attracted to men and only 5% to women is, for all practical purposes, gay.
If its in a non sexual/physical sense You could have an aesthetic appreciation still, I certainly do.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
