We have three examples of ***ual tension here. Nancy Sinatra was widely
supposed to be having a ***ual affair with Lee Hazlewood throughout the
years of their collaborative career. Even decades later she was coy about
their relation****p, though immediately after his death she stated what had
been obvious: that there had been enormous ***ual tension between the two
but that they never satisfied it, because they both knew it was a major
creative impetus and that if they did it would be gone. Both had plenty of
other sources for ***ual gratification and they were both profoundly
professional in their outlook to their craft.
Doris Day was widely perceived as a ***ually pure "good girl" and Rock
Hudson-except by Hollywood insiders and the few who chose to believe the
more salacious Hollywood magazines' worst sly allusions-an All-American
all-male man's man, ladies' man. man about town. Well, we know now he was
a man's man alright-he was an out and out homo***ual. But he sure didn't
play one onscreen. In the classic and genre-defining "romantic comedies"
the ***ual tension between their characters crackled. Both were consummate
performers-Day, also a flawless vocalist, was very privately "the hottest
(piece of) ass in Hollywood" and Hudson had no interest in females
***ually: he longed to fellate the thickest longest dicks he could.
Sublimation had to be the key in the way Hudson "built the character".
This brings us to Jenn and Arny. Arny is Mr. Married Baptist (which I
hasten to add is no bad thing) and Jenn openly professes to be a same-***
female. (I must therefore also add that that is also not anything
particularly socially destructive-it's been around, like male
homo***uality, forever, but it's not something to be encouraged. It's not
the disease vector and social destabilant male homo***uality is, though.)
Yet we see the same motifs reappearing in their confrontations on Usenet.
What does this all mean? In the end, biology triumphs-no pun intended.
