    Buckle up for one of the most infamous - and lesser-known - gay couples in Greek mythology: Zeus and Ganymede, originators of the divine Daddy-Twink dichotomy.

    William Shakespeare and Christopher Marlowe: brilliant dramatists and...bisexuals? We unpack the rumors, the hearsay and the straight-up gay poems that suggest these titans of English literature were also really, really, ridiculously (good-looking) gay.

(Or should we say bottom-full?)
