“In Paris, gays do awful things to the tomb of Oscar Wilde.”
What for? Didn’t Wilde defend “the love that dare not speak its name”? Or maybe Wilde wasn’t gay to begin with and was simply indulging his well-known penchant for outrageous expression. His sons maintained that he was never homosexual.
Oscar Wilde converted to Catholicism on his deathbed and died in the peace of the Lord. That’s enough to upset the gays right there.
No, they try to portray him as the queen of queens - smearing the grave with lipstick and graffiti. Of course, Wilde was a VERY complex individual and not just some ridiculous gay icon. Buried in the same cemetery is Jim Morrison - one of the saddest, loneliest graves I’ve ever seen. No flowers, no grass in front - just discarded beer cans from American teenage tourists. Shudder.
