>secret sharer
I've read this (googled it to be sure) and there wasn't anything homosexual in it, and believe me, I'm the sort to recognise a lot of stuff as incipiently homoerotic.
>what the frick is it about sailing the ocean that makes everyone so gay
Probably the same combination of things that male prisons have - Physical confinement, claustrophobia, high stress situations, absence of women, and a certain familial quality to the environment - eating together, sleeping together, etc.

Wrong. It's purely selection bias. Hypersexual homosexuals are more likely to become criminals and to become sailors.
It's not homoeroticism. In the past men weren't insecure about their sexuality and openly displayed their fraternal affection. You see this in lots of older books.
I'm currently reading moby dick too. finished about 80% of it. the endless pages of information about whales and whaling is frustrating. why did he write like this?
Why does IQfy keep saying this? I finally read it earlier this year and all the homosexual shit is played for crude humor, like the scatological jokes in Don Quixote.
have not read moby-dick but thats how i felt when i read conrad’s “secret sharer”

Moby Dick is super, though.

you don't think a lack of women has any contribution to increased homosexuality?
There are no women on IQfy, and IQfy is firmly heterosexual.
. . . Isn't it?
>IQfy is firmly heterosexual
No. You gays actually ruin IQfy (just like everything else).
Only in as much as it gives them an excuse to engage in such behavior.
>no women around
>welp better frick a dude's crusty butthole
you are gay
It may be that you are a repressed homosexual and need to examine that part of yourself.
Coastal folx are like that
it literally has dick in the title, wtf were you expecting
Makes it better though

This, only in a patriarchy were men able to show emotions without fear of being judged by women
Correct.
No u

Whales and whaling is a metaphor for amorous encounters with BBWs, lrn2 subtext
>white bbws
This will become every black man's favorite book now.
People used to be comfortable with others without being paranoid about sex. It's you, not the book. Nothing about Moby Dick is homosexual or devious.
Ishmael and Queequeg cuddle in the same bed, so what. Nothing gay about that.
