I would've picked Alexander on account of all that greatness but to the best of my knowledge Oscar Wilde didn't kill anybody.

'The Killer In Me'
Spike's Bitches 40: Buckle Up, Kids! Daddy's Puttin' the Hammer Down.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

So who is the best gay in history?Eleanor Roosevelt. IIRC there was talk she was gay, even though she was married to FDR. And, I don't think she killed anyone.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm with Connie.
You guys are mean! Wait till she somehow finds herself here.
I'm really upset and freaked out about this.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
IIRC there was talk she was gay
Eleanor Roosevelt was born on the island of Lesbos [eta: OK, and now Google is telling me that's an urban myth too, so nevermind], but not, AFAIC, a lesbian in the usual sense.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why push someone away who finds you attractive?
Oh, there are a million questions. But honestly, if you don't value the characteristic they value, you're immediately suspect. And even if the characteristic is value-neutral (or even positive) as scrappy says it's pretty easy to feel reduced to a set of characteristics and feel like you're on a fetish menu, or something.
Self image is a bitch.

We will do our best to convince her that we love her son and that he is in good hands with the online scary people, and that her son is brilliant and very capable of finding his own happiness in the world.
Might it be time for a clever Facebook alias?

Wait till she somehow finds herself here.She could already be here! It's not like a chat room where it says ::P-Cmom enters room:: Ya never know WHO is lurking!!
