Because I just had to share
Last night I was researching names for a character, and I think I have almost settled on the name "Sebastian" for the saint of the same name, since there's some vaguely appropriate symbolism there. As I was reading through the Wikipedia article on the saint, I came across this note:
In 1976, the British director Derek Jarman made a film, Sebastiane, which caused controversy in its treatment of the martyr as a homosexual icon.
Curious, I of course clicked on the link (Warning: NWS) for the article about the film.
Ladies and gents, there is a 1970's gay porno about a saint, and it's IN LATIN!
This is so going on my Netflix....
In related news, it seems that images of St Sebastian are traditionally a bit homoerotic. I hereby declare St Sebastian the patron saint of slashfic!
