You're right. I had a gay man try and tell me that Michelangelo was definitely gay and everyone in the gay community knows it. When I kept pressing him to provide proof he finally responded that it was known because he kept a young assistant for many years. I asked him if that was the proof then couldn't it be said that all gays are pedophiles? Or any male who works closely with another male is then gay? I got crickets.

Re the “Michaelangelo” argument.

If they can show me one modern artist, gay or straight, who is the equal of Michaelangelo (Who Lived And Worked Within A Catholic Church That Is Supposed To Be So Intolerant!) they can use my living room for gay marriages whenever they like.

Have these idiots seen any of the art being produced today?

You are right about that part, most of the attempts at arguing who was gay in the past make no sense.

It was like a blog I read years ago that tried to argue that gays should all be for gun control - by trying to compare a legitimate act of self-defense by two gay men in Texas to a recent shooting, when there was no legit comparison whatsoever. If anything, I would hope even a homosexual would be for owning guns and concealed carry. After all, we know how great big brother governmentis at stopping whatever crimes might happen bt itself.

You want proof Michelangelo was gay? Look at his famous sculpture “David”. A magnificent tribute to the beauty of the male form if ever there was one. Personally, I don’t care what sexual orientation an artist is; I just care if they can produce truly beautiful art or if they’re going to throw a few dabs of paint on a canvas and call it “modern art”.
