ARE GENE AND FINNY GAY?

If you haven't read A Seperate Peace by John Knowles, you will have no idea what I am talking about. BUT... If your English teacher has forced you into reading this classic, or maybe you're just into that genre, then you will know exactly what I am referring to when I say that GENE AND FINNY ARE GAY! Or at least, Gene is in love with Phineas (or Finny). Though my English teacher is forever denying the fact that the homosexuality in this book is real, I have found so many quotes from that book that further prove my point. In fact Moufflets has a whole article pointing out the exact quotes that prove how in love Gene is with Finny. You can click here to view that. 

In case you haven't read the book here is a quick synopsis: This story revolves around two boys, Gene  and Finny and is told from the former’s point of view. The setting takes place in a boarding school in New England (not located in England) during World War II. Gene and Finny are best friends. But Finny seems to be the type that can get away with anything and do everything, such as ditching school to go to the beach, breaking swimming records, and jumping out of trees. Finny would be what you call a stud, but he can’t because the school he and Gene happen to be at is a men’s club: no girl students. (From Moufflets)

Basically... Gene spends the entire book talking about how amazing Finny is. Not only that, he talks about another dude's butt for a whole paragraph. A WHOLE PARAGRAPH! I'm pretty sure Gene even says he was meant to be a part of Phineas and that they are supposed to be near each other or something of that nature... Yea, I know. Now I have you thinking about it don't I? Gene is a homosexual. 

***Please note that this is not me being prejudiced or judging of anyone in the LGBT community. I am simply bringing up a point in this book and how almost all English teachers deny this fact though it is so obvious throughout the book.***
