Theodore Roosevelt, One of a Kind
I sometimes say that this blog is ultimately about masculinity and it's nuances. I quoted someone a year or so ago who said that the gay artist, J.C. Leyendecker, helped define masculinity in the 20th Century. If Leyendecker helped define it, Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) helped create it. Today I am taking a look at a man whose legacy is bigger
than life in terms of history, humanity, and yes, masculinity.
Your readers are going to find a well curated and very informative series on one of a kind President Theodore Roosevelt….:)
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words!
DeleteAbsolutely agree on President Roosevelt (and Leyendecker for his illustration mastery for that matter). I would suggest that Ernest Hemingway is also in that class - larger-than-life, handsome and (allegedly) with bisexual tendencies, although I've not seen any anecdotal info about any significant connections to other men. But talking about living out loud and making your mark! There's a world of attractive attributes to consider (beyond physical nudity) and I really appreciate your 360 approach here!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words, and I agree completely about Hemingway.
