A bunch of those philosophers and others were probably gay (or at least some kind of not straight) IMO. I get that sense from Wittgensteins letters especially.

I’m not saying that they were wearing eye shadow while writing or anything like that, in fact I think that the burden of being different weighed on them very heavily, hence the philosophy.
- karmakurtisaani 2y agoAs a married man, there's no way I could ever do philosophy. "Honey, are you going to the store like you said? Or are you too busy thinking about the human condition again? The kids need to eat!" "Yes dear, just about to leave the house. Will finish this 800 page draft of very mediocre thoughts later." Yeah, come to think of it, the problem is probably the quality of my thoughts rather than family..
