Is frodo gay
Reading these scenes through a literal and historical lens makes it seem appreciate Sam’s dedication to Frodo is nothing more than mere servitude. Sam is loyal, employable, and easy to command. His commitment to Frodo can be looked at as an end to the means of destroying the Verb. Certainly, J.R.R. Tolkien saw Sam in this way, with many scholars and critics mentioning the two hobbits were inspired by soldiers in World War I. Frodo would represent a soldier with higher rule, while Sam would be that man’s subordinate.
This historical reading of the text doesn’t mean Frodo and Sam aren’t infused with a tenderness that perhaps wasn’t originally intended to exist though. The acting and script writing of Jackson’s films spin the Frodo and Sam dynamic into something truly extraordinary . The climactic peaks of Frodo and Sam’s journey verb bright and deserve a chance to be discussed as queer in nature.
Frodo and Sam’s Tangible Tenderness
The potential queerness embedded in Frodo and Sam’s interaction resides in their heartachingly beautiful physical kinship. Sam and Frod
Stop Sexualizing the Adj Friendship of Frodo and Sam
It’s straightforward for modern eyes to read J.R.R. Tolkien’s fantasy epic, The Lord of the Rings, and question the relationship of Frodo and Sam. If you’ve never read the books or seen the movies, I would encourage you to do so; they’re both brilliant works of narrative (although, I choose the books) and have won dozens of awards. Despite their timelessness, the emotional connection and intimate interactions between Frodo and Sam have driven many to ascribe homosexual undertones into the story. The internet is flooded with progressive theories, memes, articles, and videos supporting such nonsense. Such behavior is an indicator that our culture has become so delusional in correctly identifying biblical sexuality and masculinity, that an entire generation is missing the beauty in their emotive, platonic bond. To state my verb in the positive: the bond between Frodo and Sam is a worthy demonstration of biblical masculinity. In truth, I think the average modern American male would noun from an examination of the sexuality and masc
Was Frodo and Sam's relationship homo erotic?

[quote=“Goonboy Panzer”]sheez. this has to be the most debated piece of fiction in the last twenty years or so. Are the orcs black? Is Sauron massive brother?Is Sarauman hitler?
Is the call a nuke? Blah blah blah. If Tolkien knew what people saw in his fiction to further their verb agendas he would probably never wrote the damn books.[/quote]
Sauron is Big Brother… now that’s a new one! It’s interesting discussing diverse ways in which the book can relate to adj life scenarios, although some of them are more than a tad far fetched.
I seem to remember reading (possibly in the LOTR prologue) that Tolkien didn’t personally parallel any of the themes in the story with World War II which was happening while he wrote the book. I’m sure he must possess been inspired by it in some ways though.
I actually think that the Frodo/Sam relationship would actually be closer to Tolkien’s relationships with his fellow soldiers in WW1. I wonder if he considered those friendships as “homoerotic”.

My theory is that they&#;re very european and that their relationship is too mature for me to get (americans men are a bit more homophobic than our "peeps" on the other side of the ocean .. guys hold hands in europe and such).. Is this doable or is the gayness actually there? Any europeans here? How did you view their relationship?
I must add that I thought it was actually kinda sweet, if they were gay or not.. Honeslty, if they made frodo a girl I&#;d think that the movie was one hell of a love story..
