HOMOSEXUAL… AND SO WHAT?



By IWC

That was the answer the famous English writer Oscar Wilde read in a public letter during the most well-known trial of the XIX century. The middle-class in Victorian England was scandalized by his behaviour. Wilde, who had maintained an intimate friendship with Lord Alfred Douglas, was charged with sodomy by the aristocrat´s father, the Marquess of Queensberry. Wilde was convicted in the trial, held in May 1895, and was sentenced to two years of hard labor.

Prison ruined Wilde material and spiritually. That was a lesson for all those “deviated” that dared to fight publicly, a clear warning so that they remained in the shade in a society that didn´t accept them.
