Yeah, J-Mann is right. Everybody knows that homosexuality didn't exist until the 1960's.

I know it existed and would be the last person to try to cover up such evidence. From my studies of Greek and Roman history I also know well the history of homosexuality in the West, and I don't think it's right when such things are covered up, ie: some in Greece taking offense to the sexual ambiguity in
Alexander. I don't know if this evidence about Lincoln is true or not; I haven't seen evidence for or against it. I just think it is rather interesting that gay historians/writers/researchers seem intent upon outing prominent historical figures.
