Julieand because of the lack of central heating, people with no sexual interest in eachother often slept in the same beds...for years. "As in "Three Dog Night". The hot button issue was incest. With a couple of exceptions (Oscar Wilde is NOT one of them!), gay writers who wanted to write gay novels just wrote books about a lot of men, or women, having interesting relationships, not sex. Makes research into said topic very difficult.
