Kerouac...

Hmn. Did not know that author Jack Kerouac was gay.

That explains a lot about On the Road. Is it wrong that I want to give the book another try now? Probably. Eh.

Was he gay? I thought the beat poets were just sort of free love and fucked around a lot with each other and everyone else?

The rampant recreational drug use helped blur the lines between the sexes, probably.

Mmm. Beat poets. I can has?

Well, it seems that he had some identity issues that were only further complicated by sex with the very gay Allen Ginsberg. XD
