Thank you ever so much : ) I'm so glad you liked it~
That is exactly my point! She doesn't HAVE to write gay sex if she isn't comfy with it. It isn't a crime to have a book series without gay characters in it. That being said, she has written characters that are, if not gay then most assuredly bicurious.
For some reason, LKH views gay sex as either wrong, or as a kind of fetish for really ~*adventurous*~ people. It's that judgmental tone to every scene that she writes that really just burns me. I have to give credit where it's due: In the beginning, she created a really cool universe, and some fantastic characters that lived in it. It's a shame she's let her own personal issues and prejudices ruin what was initially a great idea.
I totally agree regarding Belle---in fact, I suspect that LKH hasn't written Belle in-the-flesh because she is a far superior character to Anita. Almost everyone I know likes the fact that Belle is unapologetic about her ways. She acts in her own best interest, period.
LOL, she's so far from reality that I don't think she'd recognize it if it put on a gaudy evening gown and held a sign that said, "heyyyy i'm reality!"
