Fast Eddie just took an ax to HoYay.Real Life, and this is just "Real Life but a long time ago." It needs to be treated the same way.

Also, before anyone objects that there are legitimate examples of homosexuality in history: People being homosexual, whether in the present or the past, is not Ho Yay. Ho Yay is about an Audience Reaction to fiction.

BTW, a typical entry: "I'm a teensy bit suspicious of John F. Kennedy and Nikita Khrushchev, personally."

We don't need this.

We cut the other one, so it would be awkward if we kept this. So go right ahead.

Cutlisted it. And I agree, for the record.

Might be a bit late/piling on, but more votes always helps - cut with extreme prejudice.
